Why are people outraged about Duck Dynasty...?

but don't care that our troops just got screwed over my congress?

Update:

Also, I'm a Liberal. Who doesn't "hate" the military. I also don't watch this "leftist" media your talking about.

    Because cons hate the troops and our vets. The military is wasteful, the troops get screwed our of proper equipment, and the veterans are living in the streets. It's a conservative's paradise. But they are also the biggest hypocrites ever. Know how they swear by businesses being able to make their own decisions and personal responsibility? That dried up the second A&E fired the homophobe and he had to deal with the consequences. All of a sudden a business making the decisions is bad and personal responsibility went out the window!

    Most people simply aren't aware of what happens in congress like they are with entertainment. This is mostly the fault of the media, but people too, since most media outlets are rating whores who put on what they think people will watch.

    I care about both. Phil Robertson was using "Freedom of speech". If people are offended by him, they shouldn't watch the show. He is what he is.

    Screwing over the military should irate everyone. Congress is useless at times. Our men and women in uniform should be treated with the up most respect. They have served this country.

    The whole freaking world seems out of whack to me lately. It's scary.

    People are outraged at Phil Robertson's bible thumping assertions how he tries to dictate his version of morality ...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QjaYScgeDs

    He can say what he wants but he has to understand when he offends people, there may be consequences.

    He's proliferating homophobia.

    Only 20 people and a fax machine are angry.

    Just like the red skin name hate. As an American Indian I think it is cool plus the American Indian on a horse dressed up for war as a mascot.

    If it was a Muslim group they would close there eyes.

    The plan parent hood founder was an extreme racist and believed it would help WIPE out the black race. Nobody talks about it.

    The new black panthers talked about people should kill white children to help the black race. Nobody talks about it.

    There not. They are being portrayed badly by the Media. But by now

    we all know what that is about. Robertson will take his 100 million

    or more dollars back home. Continue to manufacture his products.

    And sell them world wide. He will survive this LGBT attack which is

    nothing more then a limp wrested farce put on by the lame stream

    media.

    It doesn't make sense to me either. Republi-Christians have a long, twisted, brutal history of trying to silence everyone who doesn't agree with them, yet when the same thing happens to one of their dubious heroes, they turn into whiny little wimps and take a giant hate-sh!t all over the internet.
