    It is crazy to think about how "forgiving" hollywood/music industry is now-a-days.

    I'm laughing because what he said was funny. Obviously Charlie Sheen isn't someone a sane person would use as a moral compass.

    And obviously Robertson was not just quoting the bible, he was also expressing personal prejudice and insulting and condemning a whole group of people yada yada.

    Look at Chris Brown, for example.

    ... or R. Kelly...

    It read as gibberish to me, but to each their own.

    Roman Polanski won an Academy Award, and he can't set foot in the US because he used to drug and have sex with a 13 year-old girl who he called his girlfriend when he was 43 years old.

    Remember this memorable quote from Caryn Johnson, er, Whoopi Goldberg when they were discussing Polanski's perversion on The View?

    The amount of girls around my age who still idolize Chris Brown astounds me. It's a fuck ton. How can they not care?

    I guess by Nobody you mean there were no homosexuals way back then? Or that homosexuals liked being called sinners, even though the majority of them were actively religious? Or maybe you mean homosexuals aren't real people who care what other people say about them.

    When you assume...

    I think it's clear most fans are not in on the joke. Otherwise the show would have no viewers.

    Last minute shopping today at Fred Meyer in Bend. Most of the aisles and endcaps had gaping holes where stock had completely run out.

    Except the Duck Dynasty Merchandise endcap. Fully stocked, not a single item taken. Awkward.

    That's how we roll here in Beautiful Central Oregon. :cheers:

    How dare you. It's actually white male Christians who are the most oppressed group in America.

    I can't find a single source that verifies Obama think Farrakhan is some sort of hero.

    If Farrakhan had a TV show, he surely would be suspended for his equally outrageous statements.

    I don't see right wingers demanding Farrakhan be given a TV show on A&E.
