From A@E network for not liking HOMOS
http://bloggerpriest.com/2013/12/19/...om-ae-network/
Yeh....That's old news now.....We have talked about it here on different boards on c.c all day today....its all over the net.
Im sorry G , some of us do have JOBS, I just found out
Slow poke
A&E wanted them to stop saying "In Jesus' Name" when they said grace because it may offend Muslims. What's this country coming to?
X10
I sent A&E an email stating what I thought about their decision and told them the best thing about todays TV's was you can go into the programming and delete channels and that A&E would not be on any of the TV's in my house and I hope that everyone that felt the same as did would do the same !!! the Robertson's don't need A&E , A&E needs the Robertson's!!!
Go read my Facebook if you wants my comments. They'd get moved to way off topic here. I have quite a few opinions there
Btw there's a boycot a&be Facebook page with close to 6000000 likes in it already
There going to ban him yet they will be showing him on there shows all weekend. Hypocrites. They better cash in while they can. Outdoor Channel needs to pick them up. I hope his sons will quit working for them.
I'm with hotrod.. I wish the family would just tell A&E "we're done" and walk away. I'm sure there's contracts that prevent that but you can bet if I was in those shoes if make filming a nightmare for them. I'd make sure to quote as many bible verses as I could during the filming and then explain all the rights and wrongs the bible speaks about.

This some sad stuff,but we have a pres. that indorses same sex marriage.
go back to WORK WILBER
I am with you guys.... They need to tell A&E to jump in the swamp in La. I have known Phil since the 80s. He & Mike King from Corinth used to hunt together quite a bit. I called him for our DU banquet in the mid 90s. Still got his cell phone & talk to him still. Couldn't ask for a nicer guy.. All this said, they came to him, Phil did not go to them. They knew what they were getting when they signed them. Phil didn't need them back then & don't need them now. People have the right to express their opinions. The constitution we live by allows us to speak our opinions. You don't have to agree, you are entitled to yours. That's what makes us a free country. I believe that the good book is pretty plain on the subject, so I'll stick with it... As for Phil.. I say "that a boy"... Tell em what you think- I am sure there is a TV station that would love to have the income from Duck Dynasty...(just my opinion here)
Seems to me that as Americans we only have freedom of speech as long as the FAR LEFT agree with what we have to say.
This world could use more Phil Robertsons!!!!
I agree too . I read where there was too much money involved for him to not apologize . Phil ain't worried about no money . He's got his heart right that is worth more than gold . I am with him all the way .

which chapter of DU are you with? About 15 years ago Phil came and spoke at our DU banquet, the only way he would speak is if there was NO alcohol what so ever it was the first DU Banquet that I am aware of that didn't have Budweiser there. a few of us had the pleasure of spending the day with him and shooting some sporting clays together. That man is a lot of fun to be around and truly is a man of god. And he's pretty good shot too!

Neither side is wrong in what they did. He had and still has the right to say what he wants and they have the right to get rid of him. They didn't stop him from saying what he wants. He can still talk all he wants--he just won't be employeed by A&E. Whether or not it was the "right" decision though can be debated. I suspect neither side is really that worried about it. Both did fine before DD.
out of curiosity???
are you saying that you believe its ok for a person to be fired from their job because he/she does not have the same beliefs on an issue that a higher up has?? for instance.. say i got interviewed, for some strange reason, and asked what did i think was wrong with this world and i said,
"well, when you take God out of everything, accept/overlook everything that the bible teaches, not to mention this country was founded on those beliefs,...this is what you have left." ,
and it offended people in my workplace when they heard my beliefs, that it is "ok" for me to be fired for answering the queston honestly?
i personnly think they knew what the answers would be and thats why they ask them? it was a publicity/money making stunt and it always seems like the media trys to fry any man that is strong in his christian faith and shares it.
The sad truth is that if we boycott A and E, we might as well just turn off the TV. Every network has the same lack of morals. Heck, the only so-called right wing channel on TV, Fox News, is who busted Hank Jr. for stating his beliefs.
Anytime you mention God, Prayer, Morals, discipline your kids, the flag, your going to have a problem. People in this country have made hero's & stars out of the most degenerate people of our time. They have tv shows, movies etc. How does a handful out weigh millions? I'm from the Old School, and I think I' just plain wrong. I don't watch any of their shows.
??? Why was he even interviewing during hunting season! He got exactly what I think he wanted. And that was for Hollywood to leave him alone. He could care less bout the fame and fortune.
What I said is that we all have the right to say what we want. Companies have a right to employ at will. If I got on here and started ranting and raving about how bad my company was (which BTW is not true) that's certainly expressing my opinion, but do you really think the company shouldn't have the right to boot my butt out? Exactly why most major companies have social media policies now. If I were the manager over HR do you think I ought to go around stating an opinion on Gays being immoral, etc. given that companies by definition of equal and fair hiring can not discriminate? That might be stating my personal opinion, but it won't go over well in the real employment world. I never stated I agreed or disagreed with either his choice of words or AE choice to terminate him. They both did what they felt needed to be done. Lets move on. Fishing is a whole lot more fun to be chatting about.

Guess I'm finished eating at Cracker Barrel as well.

Your reading it wrong Chris....its a good thing....They are removeing all the Duck Dynasty products ( Those are A and E's) They are keeping all the Duck Commander products ( Those are the Robertsons).
Duck Dynasty is A and E's......Duck Commander is the Robertsons
I read on Facebook where the Duck Dynasty and Duck Commander merchandise are both owned by the Robertsons. A and E make a 7% royalty off of the merchandise for the Duck Dynasty name. I think Cracker Barrel is removing all merchandise with Phil's picture on it. We can eat at Chick-Fil-A.
Anyone that wants it here is Cracker Barrel contact:http://www.crackerbarrel.com/contact-us/
All merchandise that says Duck Dynasty is property of A and E...The Robertsons get a very small royality of of it A and E gets the Rest...Now all merchandise that says either Duck Commander or Buck Commander is property of the the Robertsons and they get 100% of it. Don't support A and E by buying things that say Duck Dynasty.....Buy Duck Commander branded stuff instead.
