What’s more horrifying than the thought of President Ted Cruz? It’s got to be U.N. Ambassador Phil Robertson.
While speaking at a campaign event in South Carolina on Friday, Cruz said that, if elected president, he would seriously consider sending the Duck Dynasty patriarch and antigay misogynist to the United Nations to represent the U.S.

“Just for a thought experiment, imagine for a second: Phil Robertson, Ambassador to the United Nations,” Cruz said Friday at a rally in Myrtle Beach.”How much would you pay to see the Russian ambassador’s face when Phil says ‘What is wrong with you people?'”
How about we take this to the next level?

The statement was met with uproarious laughter and thunderous applause.
“You know there’s a reason he terrifies the mainstream media,” Cruz continued. “He says the things you’re not supposed to say.”

Cruz then praised Robertson for speaking “with a joy, not with an anger, not with a hatred, with a joy.” Qualities he believes are important for any diplomat to possess.
In the past, Robertson has said gay marriage is “wicked” and “evil,” shared his fantasies of watching an Atheist woman get raped and an Atheist man get castrated, called AIDS “God’s punishment” to the gays for their “immorality,” insisted queers are on a secret mission to “break into women’s bathrooms,” and said gay sex is “just not logical” seeing as how women have buttholes, too.

People that should be sent to their own isolated island to rant in their “joy,” along with the remaining members of Westboro Baptist Church. What scary lunacy!

Thank you Rafael “Ted” Cruz. Every time you open your mouth you give Americans another reason not to elect you. As far as Duckman? Send him to Uganda where he can be among others who share his opinion on homosexuality and will be able to see blacks in their natural habitat happy and singing in the fields.

if this doesn’t prove that cruz is certifiable then I don’t know what does. Why would anybody vote republican, any of them, is beyond me.

Just to prove himself as a true asshole he trots out Phil Robertson! As if we needed more proof. Will Phil be his first lady too?

The GOP are the biggest bunch of star f*ckers there are.
It infuriates them that the Dems seem to have more celebrities so ANY time they can find ANY stars that are republican they always throw them out front and center.
If Honey Boo Boo’s mom said she was a republican she would have a speaking slot at the next convention.

Why does Cruz think the RUSSIAN ambassador wouldn’t like this guy? That makes no sense. The Russian would be homophobic enough to agree with him. Typical Republican, probably doesn’t even have a passport and has never been to a foreign country… oh wait, we know for sure that Cruz has been to at least ONE foreign country, eh?

Do you want either of these assholes for president. Or vp GET REAL !

Here is my response to Phil Robertson’s speech. Please share my message. Especially with those who need to hear it most #LGBT #equality #dearphilrobertson #aetv #loveislove #spreadlove #ellenpage #ellentv #philrobertson
Dear Phil Robertson
I’m writing you this letter,
After your dynamic speech
With celebrity and money,
So vast your words shall reach.
You speak with God in mind,
His Son carried in your heart.
With head held high and strong,
Your rally cry, your art.
Your love for God reminds me,
Of the way that I was raised.
In my church dress, singing hymns,
In my heart, The Spirit blazed.
Memorizing verses,
Absorbing line by line.
Of ALL of the religions,
The only TRUE one? Mine.
Fast forward all these years,
I’m a woman of thirty one.
My roller coaster life,
Never pulled me from His Son.
As many people do,
I had questions, only fair.
I retrieved my tattered bible,
I’d find the answers there.
I’d learned to translate stories,
Each message from above.
On how to live my life,
Respecting others, giving love.
You see, my God is good.
His will, forever clear.
We shall fight against all evils.
With Love, my shield my spear.
So when I heard your public cry,
To “rid the earth” of gays.
I wanted to address it,
In many different ways.
The bible, I decided,
Has a message I won’t tweak.
I’ve decided to address you,
With a language that you speak.
In Romans 2:11,
As clear as can be.
You’ll read that your God shows,
No Partiality.
Titus chapter 3, says,
Speak evil of NO ONE.
And show perfect courtesy,
To ALL! His will be done.
And since you’re such an expert,
On the bible in every way,
No one need remind you,
Of what you learned in younger days.
To love your neighbor as yourself,
No commandment as great as this.
I can refer you to the book,
Chapter and verse, if you wish.
Inciting hate and evil,
So a candidate will win?
Ignorant mr Robertson,
Our God sees that, as sin.
Your twisted connotations,
And antiquated views.
Are borderline psychotic,
And surely to amuse.
You want to stand for God,
Rally hate, if you wish,
But according to Leviticus,
You may not eat crawfish.
What you have been doing, sir,
Thoroughly unorthodox.
You use my precious bible
As your bigoted soapbox.
Step down from your pedestal,
And open up The Book.
If you believe the hate you spout,
Save your soul, and take a look.
In conclusion, Mr Robertson,
At night, for you, I pray.
Sincerely, Dani Collins.
I’m a Christian and I’m gay.
