Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. – Oscar Wilde
So Phil Robertson…having a successful television show wasn’t
enough? Being followed by millions on
the airwaves, currently on A&E, wasn’t enough for you to hold off on
talking about God for just a little while?
It reminds me of the line in the movie Braveheart when the
Princess offers William Wallace a chest of gold and he responds “…that I should
become Judas?” Amazingly enough, you
stuck with God and seem indifferent to the decision by the network ivory tower
types to suspend you from the show. Great
job.
Too many people in this day and age sacrifice themselves on
the altar of paycheck or fame or whatnot. It is great to see someone who is not
doing that right now.Moreover, I think agree with Matt Walsh’s blog that this is the same as network suicide. I agree with him that someone did not look at the Chick-Fil-A example a very few months ago. Could there be a better example of boycott going wrong and responding to a vocal minority?
In any case, I don’t remember if it was Michelle Malkin or
Katie Pavlich who tweeted it out, but Glen Beck has a pretty successful thing
happening down the street. Maybe he
could pick you up and A&E can see how far its influence goes then.
