"Duck Dynasty" clan is "wise and godly?"

BULLSHIT!

They are as phony as a televangists' begging for money.

Alan Robertson: Satan Attacked 'Duck Dynasty' Clan Because We're So Great

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Saturday, 9/27/2014 1:50 pm

“Duck Dynasty” family member Alan Robertson spoke to the Values Voter Summit last night about criticism of his father Phil Robertson’s racist and anti-gay statements. Robertson said his father was a victim of a plot by “the Evil One,” who wants to “derail [his] message” about “a return to godliness,” which apparently includes waxing nostalgic about Jim Crow and smearing gays and lesbians. “We’re talking about undergoing that change and trying to help other people see that because now you realize we’ve got generations of people in our nation that really don’t understand godliness at any level, they don’t know,” he said. Later in his remarks, Robertson prayed that the heathens outside of the Values Voter Summit will one day become just as wise and godly as the Robertson clan: “I pray for even our American brothers and sisters who aren’t there yet, I pray for them, because I want our nation to rise up and be great again.”

Make fun of rural people to make money out of the urban/suburban people laughing at the 'hicks' that feed into some city people's stereotypes of what country people are like, then cover it up with a veneer of backwoods fundamentalist Christianity to get away with the scam.

Wait, no, of course not. Why give away what they're primed to buy.
