re: This is why political debates are useless (duck dynasty)

Shreveport is my hometown, so I hate to see what is has become.

That being said, this is one more instance which highlights the fact that liberals are 10X more vindictive than conservatives. Why shouldn't Phil Robertson have the right to express his political beliefs without fear of recrimination? Isn't this still America?

And, what did he say that would really be that offensive to most Shreveporters? He's against gay marriage, but does anybody really think a significant percentage of Shreveporters disagree with him? Shreveport is a Dem town because the population transitioned to majority black, but people are kidding themselves if they think black people in Shreveport favor gay marriage. They don't.

That might be why there wasn't much of a direct response on this. Being against ssm and in favor of destroying ISIS aren't radical positions in Shreveport.

Slight change of subject, but I'll tell you what I think could become a Robertson-related issue. Willie's daughter Sadie is "competing" on DWTS this season. Last week was the first episode, and she was treated well. But, a lot of the SJW types had probably never heard of Sadie Robertson before. I wouldn't put it past some of the far left loons to go after her in some form or fashion, once they figure out she is Phil Robertson's granddaughter.

I would be willing to bet any amount of money that Willie took the time to get assurances from the producers that the show would not play up any kind of controversial angle regarding his 17 year-old daughter's "controversial" conservative-minded family. What a shame that it has come to this.

Nancy Pelosi's granddaughter could be on that show, and they would never have to worry about a thing.

Vindictive liberals. What a sorry group of bastards they are.
