Where is the outrage?

[ShagNappy]

Shame these guys don't have beards and don't sell duck calls. The outrage would be overwhelming.

After the group Right Wing Watch reported the twins who star in HGTV’s recently greenlit reality series Flip It Forward are anti-gay activists, the network said this morning it had given the hook to the series, which was set to debut in October.

That is a dumb thing to say

What do anti-gay activists do? Seriously, what kind of actions do they take so they are known as anti-gay activists?

Apparently they do not have beards and make duck calls.

From The Rev's linked website ...

HGTV announced at its upfront presentation last month in Los Angeles that it had picked up the home-flipping series about brothers David and Jason Benham. The network’s description of the show at the time: “After a decade of flipping houses for profit, brothers David Benham and Jason Benham now help families buy the homes they never thought they could afford. In each episode, the guys help a deserving family find a fixer-upper and transform it into their forever home — with a healthy dose of sibling rivalry between the brothers along the way.” At the same presentation, HGTV also announced it had greenlighted a design competition show from Ellen DeGeneres. [Emphasis added]

Umm ...

Ellen DeGeneris? Seems to me if these brothers are as adamantly "anti-gay" as Right Wing Watch portrayed them, they wouldn't have agreed to such a conntract with such a "heathen cable station." Could it be that perhaps Right Wing Watch is ... uh ... how shall I say this ...

LYING???

And could it be perhaps further that HGTV had a knee-jerk reaction much like AMC concerning our favorite bearded duck-call-manufacturing family on the Bayou? Could it? Hmmm.

As far as the "outrage" is concerned there is plenty. But we need to remember some things.

Duck Dynasty has been on the air for years and have quite a following.

These other guys have not even started their show yet and almost no one knows who they are or event that they exist.

The Family Research Counsel is in fact making some noise about this.

This is still new news and has not had time to build up some momentum.

Seriously? You take the labels assigned by liberals seriously? They're probably pro-traditional marriage. Shoot—being pro-family is anti-gay.

Wish the BB were anti-gay.

Wish the BB were anti-gay.

It's my opinion that at some time in the soon to medium future hate crime laws will be passed, internet board messages, blogs, tweets, twitters, etc, etc, etc... will be scoured looking for blood.

Of course "crimes" of the past probably wont be prosecuted but we (BB) will probably be on the "no-fly" (in hyperspace) list as suspect and closely scrutinized.

It's a matter of survival.
