In a YouTube video cut for the evangelical group American Renewal Project, Phil Robertson urged voters in Louisiana, home to his family’s operation, to get to the polls: “Better move before it’s too late.”
Filmed in the woods and with Robertson in his trademark camo, the sometimes controversial businessman said, “We are in a republic. We are supposed to vote for the ones that run our country.”
He adds, “We need to elect Godly men for crying out loud, or we are going to get more of the same.”
Robertson concluded, “Just remember this. Vote Godly. We want Godly men making political decisions like George Washington, like John Adams, like Thomas Jefferson, like James Madison. We need Godly men like the ones who founded our country.”

In a Sept. 14 sermon focusing on how few people in the media, the UNIVERSITIES, and in movies rarely ever talk about sin or even use the word “sin,” Phil Robertson, an elder at the White’s Ferry Road Church in West Monroe, La., quoted from Webster’s dictionary about political correctness and then emphasized that murder is a sin.
“Noah Webster’s heirs at least were not kind to political correctness,” said Robertson, in reference to the dictionary publisher’s intellectual descendants. “Political correctness is usually used disparagingly to connote dogmatism – this way or the highway, you either gonna’ agree with us, yeah, we’re hollering tolerance but we’re only tolerant of anyone who agrees with us. They connote dogmatism, the excessive sensitivity to minority causes. It just goes on and on.”
Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson offered his preferred strategy to combat the Islamic State terror group during a Fox News appearance Tuesday night: “Convert them or kill them.”
“In this case, you either have to convert them, which I think would be next to impossible. I’m not giving up on them, but I’m just saying either convert them or kill them,” Robertson told host Sean Hannity. “One or the other.”

Now in its sixth season on the A and E channel, Duck Dynasty is the highest rated reality-TV show in cable history, with an average 10.5 million viewers per episode.
n a recent interview with Fox411, Uncle Si (Silas Merritt Robertson) commented on how many aspects of the reality program are unplanned. They had stumbled across “fresh beaver signs” during one episode, he said, adding that “nobody scouted this out –okay? We just do this on the spur of the moment.”
He further said, “We was doing a film one day about hunting for the beaver dam, and I said – I laughed at the director. I said, ‘You actually think you’re directing this thing.’ I said, ‘You’re not.’ I said, ‘Hey, the Lord God Almighty is directing Duck Dynasty.’”

During his appearance at the “Rock the South” music festival in Cullman, the reality television star stated it’s time to vote those “ungodly” politicians out of Congress.
“Whatever you do, go register to vote, especially on this next presidential election. Register to vote and you ought to register for the House and the Senate, too. Get your tail down there and vote this ungodly bunch out of Washington, D.C.,” Robertson told the crowd while getting a raucous ovation.
Robertson also delved into his controversial comments he made about homosexuality in a GQ interview last December.
“I’m actually a nice man,” Robertson told the crowd. “I’m trying to help those poor souls and turn them to Jesus.

A union representing federal employees at Eglin Air Force base in Florida is demanding that two senior management officials be removed from their posts because they put decals on their personal trucks supporting Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson.
Alan Cooper, the executive vice president of the local chapter of the American Federation of Government Employees, said one of the officials also displayed the “I Support Phil” decals in his office last month and offered them to subordinates.
“The BUE (bargaining union employee) was clearly offended and disgusted that a senior management official would display the decal on their pod,” read an email Cooper wrote.
“We took offense,” Cooper told me in a telephone interview. “These two particular individuals have a great amount of influence over individuals who may be gay, who may be African-American – and we have a concern they should not be in a position to exert that influence when it comes to promotions.”
In an email that was sent to union members, Cooper said the Duck Dynasty decal may be a violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
“Duck Dynasty’s” Executive Producer Breaks Silence On Phil Robertson Controversy
By B. Christopher Agee.
Taking part in a recent Reality Roundtable event hosted by The Hollywood Reporter, Deirdre Gurney weighed in on a controversy that rocked the hit series she produces.
Last year, Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson made some Bible-based statements regarding homosexuality that some found offensive. As a result, A&E moved to suspend the Robertson family patriarch until backlash from outraged fans led to a reversal of that decision.
Gurney explained that the network’s push to kick Robertson off of the show had nothing to do with the role she plays within the series’ production company.
“I don’t think anyone expected it to be that kind of a reaction and get that much attention,” she noted; “so no one was prepared with what this really meant, what to say.”
She said the fact that the incident erupted during the Christmas season only compounded a difficult situation.

“You lose your religion, you lose your morality, you lose your freedom,” Robertson said. “You cannot be right for America if you are not right with God.”
In an event the GOP billed as an “unofficial kickoff” of the 2016 presidential campaign, Robertson drew repeated applause and more than one standing ovation by insisting, “If the country does not turn to God at a fairly rapid clip, we are going to lose the United States of America.”
Robertson jokingly suggested, “The GOP must be desperate to call a person like me.”
Looking at the outfit that is now linked with his Duck Dynasty television persona, Robertson insisted, “These clothes are the best I own.”
Phil Robertson, star of the popular “Duck Dynasty” television show, defended his controversial comments on homosexuality, giving a church sermon in which he ridiculed media coverage and others “blurring” the lines between “sinners” and homosexuals.
In a video of an Easter Sunday sermon at Whites Ferry Road Church in his hometown of West Monroe, La., that has gone viral, the “Duck Dynasty” star – who was suspended for making similar comments in a GQ interview last year – told the congregation that he refuses to back down on his beliefs.
Robertson called the media outrage absurd over his GQ interview comparing homosexuality to bestiality and various other “sinners.”
“They were mad at me,’ he tells the congregation. “You say, ‘Why’d they get mad at you?’ Cause instead of acknowledging their sin, like you had better do, they railed against me for giving them the truth about their sins. Don’t deceive yourselves.”

A contentious cable television reality show star will be among the highlighted acts at this year’s Alaska State Fair, officials announced Wednesday.
Phil Robertson and other members of the show “Duck Dynasty” will headline the concert venue Aug. 30, fair marketing director Dean Phipps said.
Set in Louisiana bayou country, A&E’s “Duck Dynasty” follows a family that manufactures duck calls and loves to go bird hunting.
Robertson, the family patriarch, was briefly suspended by A&E last year after GQ magazine quoted him declaring that gays are sinners and African Americans were happy under Jim Crow laws establishing segregation. Supporters of Robertson’s right to voice his opinions flocked to his defense before the network reinstated him.
