Sarah Palin, 'Duck Dynasty' Clan to Ring in New Year on Fox News
Breitbart's Big Hollywood ^ | December 30, 2013 | Tony Lee

Posted on 12/31/2013 12:15:28 AM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and some members of the Duck Dynasty family will be on Fox News for its New Year's Eve programming Tuesday night.

After A&E suspended patriarch Phil Robertson for comments to GQ magazine that were deemed to be "anti-gay," the network, which is owned by Disney, reinstated Robertson last Friday. Palin is the politician that many, including a prominent columnist for The Hill, said most resonates with Duck Dynasty nation...

Palin was the first politician of note to vigorously defend Robertson immediately after he got suspended, saying that "free speech is an endangered species" and "those 'intolerants' hatin’ and taking on the 'Duck Dynasty' patriarch for voicing his personal opinion are taking on all of us."

Her comments paved the way for some other politicians on the right--like Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R)--that came to Robertson's defense while the Republican establishment was silent.

Contrary or herd mentality.
To each his own. Choose your paths carefully. Two way traffic only goes so far after that ...the here after, no turn back. Politics is a vehicle for a society to express itself. I’m afraid that the current state of the union is bland and less than awe inspiring.

Phil I equate to Paula Deen, just an old bigot who let a little of his Louisiana cracker come out.

Up yours Bub and/or Bubette and I do mean that sincerely, y'all.

I wish he could have gotten Tim Tebow though.

What makes you think he tried?

Tim Tebow to be SEC Network analyst.

http://espn.go.com/espn/story/_/id/10216946/tim-tebow-joins-espn-analyst-sec-network

From the story: "Tebow's role with ESPN will not preclude him from continuing to pursue opportunities in the NFL."

I don't think he has to worry about that.

Speaking of.... here on March 4 in the TX Senate primary, we will set the tone for the rest of the year throughout the nation.

Looking around and found

Million Vet March w/ Cruz, Lee, Congressman Steve Stockman & Gov. Sarah Palin.

I think Sarah endorsing Stockman is on the way.. there are 8 weeks to go.

That would be a hard call to make, but Rino Cornyn needs defeating in a big way.
Hope she backs Stockman, it would help like it did with Cruz.

Another interesting bit:


In a new poll released Monday, Cruz holds a 10-point lead over Dewhurst. A Cruz victory would represent a major repudiation of Texas governor and former Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry, who has supported Dewhurst, and a major victory for Sarah Palin, who has supported Cruz. According to the Public Policy Polling survey, 31% of voters say they would vote for a candidate endorsed by Palin, compared to only 24% who say they’re more likely to vote for Perry’s choice.

Sarah Palin 3,958,878 likes · 106,849 talking about this... Not bad for someone the left deems “irrelevant”

(Still talking to myself here)

Cruz 391,973 54.36%
Dewhurst 328,987 45.63%

That was the runoff. In the initial primary, Dewhurst got 45% and Cruz 34%.

On the contrary, dumbass. People rallied around Phil Robertson because of smears like yours. They know he’s the real deal and appreciate the chance to have their own families sit together to watch a funny yet God-loving Christian family. Phil knows what is wrong with this country and isn’t afraid to say it.

Wow.. only 400K of those likes need to be registered Texan voters to end Cornyn. Maybe 500K this year.

It looks sadly like Perry is going to try to RINO Cruz and Stockman.

Still waiting for Sarah to whisper.
