I Know You Want To Talk About This.
Okay, here’s the deal. A&E hires some religious right gun totin’ self-professed rednecks from the back bayous of Louisiana and then acts shocked, shocked I tell you, when they say something religious right gun totin’ self-professed redneck.
Have you ever seen a person of color on that show? No, you have not. And how do women have a say in family matters? By hoochy only. And why does that one brother never appear on the show? Uh, maybe he’s in the closet?
While the Dixie Chicks are not entitled to the First Amendment, rednecks are. You gotta keep the rules right.
This is not a first amendment matter. This is a free enterprise matter.
If this family thinks gays are going to hell and blacks were perfectly happy to be slaves, then they are going to be mighty lonely in the great hereafter. Nobody is gonna wanna be around when Sweet Jesus gives them a talkin’-to.
By the way, today is Momma’s 88th birthday and we’re having a big ole party. Here she is last month meeting her new great-grandson Ben for the first time. She’s pretty in pink, isn’t she?
She’s a fourth generation Texan and comes from a long line of strong women, all of who lived unhindered into their nineties. Last month someone asked her if she had lived in Houston all her life. “Not yet,” she replied.
Happy Birthday, Momma.
According to my son, there really is a duck dynasty. The last dynasty teevee show I ever saw was years ago when John Forsythe and Linda Evans were in it. Son whistled up some pics of duck and OMG if I ever saw the results of central casting this is it! They can’t be for real!
What is real is my best wishes for a wondrous Christmas for JJ, momma and all the patrons of TWMDBS! And while your at it, also try for a Happy New Year.
1Sweeter yet, 52 and counting, may baby Ben grow up in a BLUE Texas. May all our children grow up in a nation that supports and educates our children. My wife and I are not yet blessed with children, but when we are, we want them to be like Ben. Blessed. Wanted. And, most importantly loved with a blue & green progressive future.
2Oh yes! Happy birthday, momma!
3The things I miss out on by not having a television…
4Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas, Momma !!!!!
5Happy Birthday, Momma! Oh, that the world were full of more women like you and your line!
6@ Marge Wood–congratulations on the little one getting one step closer to coming home…to have the experience ” of being greeted like a rock star ” just because you exist is one of the great gifts of life-yea, grandmas!
