Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty is not alone. Hes the latest in a long, long lineup of politically incorrect targets of the lefts sensitivity mob. Founded in 1985, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) gangstas wont stop until both the cultural and legal enforcement of their agenda are the norm. <\/p>\n
A&E suspended the reality-TV patriarch on Wednesday for the Biblical views he expressed in an interview with GQ. Asked what he viewed as sinful, Robertson drew on the condemnation of sexual immorality in Corinthians 6:9, citing adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers they wont inherit the kingdom of God. <\/p>\n
His transgression? Responding honestly to a question posed to him (this was not an unsolicited anti-gay rant; it was a response) and abiding by his Christian faith. <\/p>\n
GLAADs PC Praetorian Guard sprung into repressive action. The same group that initially gave f-word-spouting, homophobic liberal Alec Baldwin a pass accused Robertson of uttering some of the vilest and most extreme statements against LGBT people ever. GLAAD also railed against Robertsons vile preference for female anatomy over male as if it were a human-rights violation. <\/p>\n
A&E folded faster than a stadium seat, immediately disavowing Robertson and suspending him from his familys show indefinitely. Meanwhile, network execs continued to cash in on the lucrative Duck Dynasty empire with a marathon of program reruns on the very day they threw Robertson under the bus. <\/p>\n
GLAAD has worked tirelessly to marginalize and suppress the free speech of Christian leaders and conservative talk-radio hosts dating back to its infamous Dr. Laura boycott 13 years ago. The groups mission is not about equality or defending against defamation. Its about silencing critics, making open debate radioactive, demonizing people of faith and making even the slightest perceived slight a hate crime. <\/p>\n
Last year, GLAAD speech-squelchers issued a blacklist of 34 Christian commentators they wanted networks to ban from their air for extreme views (read: opposing gay marriage). Earlier this year, GLAAD attacked the National Geographic Channel for partnering with the traditional values-promoting Boy Scouts on a reality-TV program. <\/p>\n
Its not enough to live and let live. You must repent and genuflect before the self-serving gods of selective progressivism. Thats why GLAAD forgave director Brett Ratner for using the word fag. He was allowed back into the protected Hollywood club after submitting to GLAAD re-education camp and appearing in GLAAD public-service announcements. <\/p>\n
Bill Clinton, who authored both the Defense of Marriage Act and the Dont Ask, Dont Tell policy got a GLAAD Advocate for Change award earlier this year for changing his mind when politically expedient. <\/p>\n
The tolerance mobs insatiable quest for power and control has led to such unhinged witch-hunting that many of its own erstwhile allies are balking. Novelist Bret Easton Ellis called GLAAD the gatekeepers of politically correct gayness. He was attacked as a self-loathing gay man, but unlike A&E, he didnt give in. An organization holding an awards ceremony that they think represents all gays and also feels they can choose which gays can and cannot be a member of the party is, on the face of it, ridiculous. <\/p>\n
