I'm confused as to why the "Duck Show" is the focus here. To most people I've talked to, its not. Its about the backlash towards his comments. The liberals and LGBT community can say whatever they want, but when a conservative or Christian speaks about their beliefs, its wrong and they are persecuted.

I could careless about what happens to the show. Its the fact that yet again, if someone speaks out against the masses, they get snuffed out.

Its the principle of the thing.

All that sounds great, but that's just the way things are. Way to much wasted energy on crap like this. It didn't matter if these words where said by a north Louisiana redneck or Senator from California the press was going to have a field day with it. You are confused why the duck show is the focus here? I just wanted to express my dislike for scripted redneck show about nothing, so please don't persecute me for expressing my opinion.

I'm not man, I guess its just one of those things that some people get riled up over and others don't. But the "that's just the way things are" arguement is a lethargic way of going about it. That's why the country is what it is now, because people sat back and let things happen.

When you choose to make your living in public eye, you are free game for every group of people to knock you down one way or another. As far as me using the word redneck, nobody cares I am a private citizen an nobody gives a crap what I say. My point is Phil being in his position knew his comments where not politically correct, and it would cause him attention good or bad.

Best part is, he shouldn't have to be. Everybody done went and sissified in our country and, sneezing in your own house will now days offend the neighbor! Personally, I refuse to get on board with political correctness. The mere term is a contradiction! Politics and, correct should never be lumped into one another!
