Former twink.

Happiness cannot be found by chasing down the happy. It can only lead to more frustration with ever deepening fagdom.

To be fair (and accurate), Rush’s comments were actually about the sports media regarding McNabb. Rush was lynched over a twisting of the actual words said.

Much like Phil Robertson.

Most of the others in the list did or appear to have (for the instances I am unfamiliar with) actually lashed out verbally against other individuals - particularly Martin Bashir, who advocated sick punishment for a political foe (Sarah Palin). Baldwin used some school yard taunts against a protected group - his dismissal is more about WHO he targeted than about HOW..

“And he needs to get in line

For the cattle car?”

And just like before there will be people there that are supposed to be just like you handing out bread and jelly to make your ride in the cattle car comfortable and assuring you everything will be OK so don’t resist.

It’s the people that are willing to hand out the bread and jelly to get you on the cattle car that you have to watch.

I think Phil Robertson played a Harvard educated run network.

Phil does not need the money and was giving back to the lord in doing the show.

Phil was the backup to Terry Bradshaw in College, where most members have a College Degree much less a masters degree.

He got what he wanted by saying that to GQ ( which libs have arranged the words to fit there agenda and its failing.

"... he needs to get in line..."

Totalitarians eventually let their mask slip and tell you their real agenda. If these people are not stopped, real persecution is on the way, not just a mere stifling of ideas and beliefs.

That is indeed my point, that free speech has consequences in terms of your employment. You are representing the company to its customers, as the example I often give is—the guy who gets hired as a WalMart greeter and says “f-— you” to each customer. Warned, still does it...fired. Rightfully so. Now if the government comes after us for saying what we say, that is a violation of freedom of speech.

I believe this was a set up to be part of Hillary’s campaign where she will portray the republican party as a party of and for straight white men.

She is going to be portraying the republican party as being at war with everyone to preserve the “White Mans” supremacy.

War on Women.

War on Gays.

War on Hispanics.

War on Blacks.

Um, Phil started AHEAD of Terry Bradshaw at Louisiana Tech.

***Dixie Chicks: had boycott against them after N. Maines said “we’re ashamed Pres Bush is from Texas” in London***’

There is quite a difference between spouting off during an act of WAR against the US, and an interview for a magazine.

One should see what the US films of WWII told civilians to do to those who talked defeatism, which is what the Dixie Chicks did.

There is nothing wrong with what Phil said. After all, if the magazine did not want his opinion they would not have asked for it.

Actually Terry Bradshaw was the backup to Phil.
