Tell me more, please. Tell me more about how Christians have been persecuted in our country.

Quite frankly, its a whole bunch of horse****. You and your fellow Christian adherents are NOT persecuted.

None of your rights have been taken away.

None of your practices have been outlawed.

None of your religious freedom has been infringed upon.

Grow up and educate yourself. It has become wholly tiresome to listen to the crying.

Those terrible black leaders making the black population angry about being subject to different rules and laws due to their skin color.

Thumbs down GOP Lawmaker To Introduce Bill Celebrating Phil Robertson As A "Hero"

It's unreal that those on the far right not only condone, but praise hate and intolerance, things completely against the constitution and what the founding fathers wanted,..

An Alabama state senator has promised to introduce a bill calling for the state to lend its support to suspended Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson, the Daily Home reported on Tuesday.
State Sen. Jerry Fielding’s (R) bill states in part that Robertson, who was benched following homophobic and racially-fueled statements to GQ, “should not be penalized in any way for practicing freedom of speech, but should be celebrated as a hero for courageously revealing his self-truth and Christian ideals in a world that can be unkind towards those with a conservative mind-set.”

Fielding’s bill calls for the state legislature to be “united in support” of Robertson and his family, saying the Duck Dynasty stars have been “ambassadors of the love and grace of the Heavenly Father through their exemplary lives on and off the camera.”

Introducing legislation that is basically commentary on a media event sounds like small government/fiscal conservatisim to me...

I didn't expect you to see the hypocrisy.

Many liberals definitely are demanding that Phil be censored and/or fired, yet are very quiet about Ahmadinejad. If Phil was dismissed from the show because he quoted the Bible, do you agree with it?

Compared to liberals passing laws, throwing people in jail, slandering folks for speaking their beliefs because they don't match liberal moonbatology? Never heard a word about hate in his comments but your post sure reflects it based on your comments. Reading comprehension is not the liberal strong suit eh?
