	robin - 2013-12-28 10:00 AM runs4fun - 2013-12-28 9:28 AM However, Jessie Jackson is demanding that A&E, Phil Robertson, and Cracker Barrel meet with him so that he can tell them the error of their ways and get them straight on a few things. Yeah, right...Jessie, I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. Rev cough Jackson gave them a deadline of where and when. A&E, Phil and CB missed it or rather ignored it. I am on a board that talks about all sorts of things going on in our country. The blacks and yes they call themselves blacks of both parties are so ready for Jackson and Sharpton to move on. OT did anyone see where the white guy that played the knockout game is being charged with a hate crime for the attack on a black guy and black leaders are outraged calling for his head. Where is the outrage for the black on white knock out crimes? Sorry it just irks me. Hypocrisy to me is my biggest pet peeve and I know I sound like a broken record. The very best thing for everyone that is sick and tired of Jessie and Al to do is to just ignore them. Which I guess is what A&E and Cracker Barrel did...kudos to them for that! They are attention-headline grabbing hate mongers that have not one thing going for them other than their ability to stir the pot! They both make me sick and they've only gotten as far in life as they have because of the ignorance of a few people that actually jump on their bandwagons! Edited by runs4fun 2013-12-28 10:16 AM

A Lady with Fight Posts: 2701 Location: NC	WrapSnap - 2013-12-27 11:53 PM Am I the only one who feels like the whole thing was a quick "damage control" spin, with no intention of Phil ever actually missing filming? Seems like a win/win. A&E looks like they're covering their butt to the gay community, which let's face it, is the only reason that lots of A&E's other shows (such as Dance Moms, AUDC, etc...) are such hits and the timing of it all got the show great publicity. I saw it as a publicity stunt & CYA too. Seems kind of fishy how it was all starting to die down, just in time for them all to magically come back together in love & harmony. BAM! Back in the headlines/time lines/etc for all to see. Again.

	I know publicity stunts are pulled all the time but I just truly do not believe that this particular incident was that. I think A & E made a quick knee-jerk decision and it back-fired on them big time. Perhaps they never intended for him to miss an episode but wanted to LGBT community to think they had actually penalized someone for daring to insult them;however, I don't think they anticipated the back-lash to their announcement to be as dramatic as it was. That's just my gut-feeling about the whole incident. I'm kind of glad it happened though because it did give many of the Bible-believing public a chance to find out that they still have a voice and that it still carries some weight in this country Edited by runs4fun 2013-12-28 10:59 AM
