I'm gonna bet two dollars and a pickled peanut that they are soon on another network. Just an observation, not a comment.

That's gonna go over like a turd in the punch bowl....
Why ask someone their opinion if you are just going to bitch about it?

The networks are driven by money. That's what will be the decider, not how they feel about peter puffers. I'd agree with Bucky, somebody will pick them up in a heartbeat.

Nothing like trying to "script" a "reality" show.
A&E knew what they were getting, religion and all, when they signed up the Robertson family....so, they shouldn't be too surprised that ole Phil spoke his mind....I imagine ole Phil told his wife, Kaye, "Screw 'em, don't need 'em. Let's go kill a muskrat for supper."....just like he told Martha Stewart, when she invited him to be on her show, "Sorry, honey, I'll be duck hunting."
You gotta appreciate his honesty....money doesn't mean sheeit to Phil....heck, he still lives in a double-wide trailer.
Phil has an opportunity to strike a blow for the Christian here. I hope he tells them to kiss him on his Arkansas Highball and the family backs him up. The homosexual crowd needs to understand, it ain't all about them.
On a technical issue, I'm having to change my password every day to get in
I'll bet Willy is tearing his hair .. and beard. I'm wondering who thought it was a good idea for Phil to do that interview. They bait interviewees unmercifully just hoping for something like this. You know regardless of what you think about homosexuality.. it's the damned double standard that pisses me off to no end. Gays. Muslims, black racists, movie stars.. they can all say anything they want.. freedom of speech.
Oh and "me too" on the password.
Go Phil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This morning, Phil issued a statement in response to A&E....to paraphrase it:
"God loves everyone....God made 'em, so I love 'em, too, regardless of their beliefs or my beliefs."
In a nutshell, I think Phil just said, "I love vaginas....queers can go f--k themselves." ;)
My bet is that A&E will lift the 'suspension' once they feel the maximum exposure has been reached and that when its been reinstated, Phil and A&E will make an assload of cash out of it and they'll be happy as clams.

Is the complete interview posted on-line someplace? I watched a news show this morning where they were discussing this mess and they said there was actually MUCH more in the interview that has not been televised ... and it's BIG TIME troubling what was said. They said they can't discuss it on television, so I suppose it can only be read in the actual article.
I could give a squat ... I've tried to watch the show a dozen times, but really can't get into it and become a regular viewer. It's like most "reality" shows ... I really think 95% of it is trumped up for the entertainment value and there's very little "reality" involved.
Thump, they're prolly referring to Phil's reference in the interview, as to """a vagina, being much more desirable than another man's anus."""
Possibly ... and I sure can't disagree! ;)
Same ole double-standard bullsheeit !!!!

I guess the Nobel Prize is Noble, eh?
BTW, I fully support A&E's stupid decision to fire him. They can hire and fire whomever they want.
But since Phil is in EVERY episode, even if only at the end, not sure how they can simply ban him only.
You hit the nail on the head! Look how much publicity they're getting. Truth be told, I never heard of Duck Dynasty afore today.

Phil Robertson was much more fun when he was making 'Duckmen' duck hunting videos on VHS and biting the heads of crippled ducks to kill them instead of preaching. If A&E thinks he's politically incorrect now.... they should have seen him when he was running with Red Dog and the boys. Jase was just a wierd teenager then and the rest of the clan wasn't heard of. It was a hell of a lot more fun to watch them shooting the shit out of ducks with steel shot through old A5s (wonder how many they ruined?). Duck Dynasty isn't even a show that any duck hunters I know even watch.

I simply look at it as a "comedy" show. No reality. No hunting. Just a good network comedy. Problem is, I DO think they're funny ... I just can't get "hooked" and very seldom watch.
I've heard he's a blast to watch but I have to admit I've only seen a few minutes of one episode. Seemed like a fun guy to be around though.
After watching the tv while on the treadmill at the gym and seeing this topic all over the internet I am convinced that I am the only dude in America who doesn't really care. I don't care what some duck hunting hoopee from Louisiana thinks of homosexuals. I don't care what some gay commentator thinks about the remarks by some duck hunting hoopee from Louisiana.
We've got functional illiterate numbers that could make a saint weep. We've got a national debt that laid dollar to dollar could stretch to the moon and back. We've got an out of control banking system that cannot even obey the laws which they themselves write and pay their lapdogs to put into law. An industrial base that has been bludgeoned by so called global trade. Unemployment numbers that calculated in anything resembling honest numbers are right out of the great depression.
And what do we talk about? Miley Cirus' latest peepshow video. Lindsey Lohan's latest plastic surgery debacle. Kanye West's most recent idiotic ramblings. Jessica Simpson's latest rash.....
I hate to sound doomish but I fear the days of this nation being privileged enough to afford this kind of societal masturbation are numbered. The cultural warriors are distracting the nation from important matters and our national dialogue is a damned disgrace.
There.
Merry fucking Christmas. :p

LOL....one of my nephews put it pretty well when he said the other day that god must have his hand close to the 'CTL-ALT-DET' buttons.

What's this about Miley Cirus, now? Do tell!

~snort~
Wouldn't doubt it a bit. I can hear him right now "Well then find me one man in the city.... "
Will
Who are those people, Will?
Well, now I KNOW he just doubled his hunting clientele!!! And his new network ain't gonna be BET....
I don't care how "vitriolic" (a word no one ever heard of till the PC crowd grew a set) a man's words are. You are offended yourownself. I can NOT offend you. That's up to you. Most of us ignore stupid statements. But some crowds just can't. They want the world to conform to them, right now, and in a hurry.
The Chasm Deepens.

Will, you forgot that the Masons are the spawn of Satan.:D
Will gets best post of the year... right in under the wire!
I think I'd second that, Len. We need to think of a name for an award. Like the Goober Award or something.

I don't know what you have against brick layers, Hank...
