Phil Robertson: Our founders wouldn’t want government to help Louisiana flood victims

The Duck Dynasty star is mind-melding with our founding fathers.

Here’s my view of disasters, whether it be hurricanes, tornados, it just rains a lot. Everyone needs to take a deep breath and say—You know, I’ve noticed something. We bellyache when it doesn’t rain because we can’t grow anything and ‘It’s a drought, it’s a drought!’ We all bellyache and then cry out. Well, when it rains, starts raining and it rains too much so you have a flood, ‘It’s a flood, it’s a flood!’ and everyone gets all bent out of shape whether it doesn’t rain or if it does rain.

So everybody is saying, running around on planet earth, seemingly saying in America at least, if it just rained just right all the time we would be happy. Here’s the deal: When it rains a lot, it’s going to flood. And if it doesn’t rain too much you have a drought. Both of them are bones to be chewed.

But it’s my studied opinion, just from observing, our founders basically said, ‘When disasters come your way, it’s unfortunate, they do happen, but you can’t expect the United States government to start pouring in and coming down there.’

    Who thinks that this guy has a clue about what our founders did or did not want??

    • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 18:39

      Who thinks this guy has a clue what a “founder” is?

      • amersham1046 September 9th, 2016 at 18:47

        I founder it out behind the pick up truck

    That’s fine for you and the rest who have money to rebuild/replace anything you lost but what about those who don’t? You call yourself a Christian? Get outta here! You’re nothing but a pawn and spawn of Satan.

  3. Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 18:40

    We’ll remember that next time your house gets flattened by a tornado.

    In his ‘studied’ opinion?… ‘studied’? Really? I’m guessing that Mr. Robertson’s most ‘studied’ object might be trying to grasp the instructions on a roll of toilet paper! A task which surely surpassed his box-of-rocks intellect and which he abandoned after finding no enlightening pictures and returned to just doing the Ted Nugent sit-in-it!

    Wow. I feel like I just heard Christ speak to those poor unfortunates.

    • Hirightnow September 9th, 2016 at 19:59

      I know, right?
      “Blessed are the rich, for they shall guide the poor in how to possibly become as they.
      Blessed are the privileged, for they know that they do not wish to suffer.
      Blessed are they with notoriety, for they shall be heard, and rightly so, for their fame giveth them credence.      “

        • Hirightnow September 9th, 2016 at 20:01

          I think he said, “Blessed are the cheesemakers?”

          • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 20:05

            Not meant to be taken literally, refers to any manufacturer of dairy products.

              Those guys ruined me while I was in middle school. (PBS, not knowing any better, used to air “Flying Circus” at 11:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and my mom, not knowing any better, used to not mind my watching PBS.)

    The greatest founder of all time was George Halas

              Those where the days when football was worth watching.

              Deacon Jones and Rosy Grier where so much fun to watch.

              • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 20:14

                Rosey is the only one of the original line left.

                • anothertoothpick September 9th, 2016 at 20:20

                  Yeah? Is that right?

                  I just finished reading a book about Bobby Kennedy who basically died in Rosey,s arms.

                  When Rosey got home that night he found the gun that killed Kennedy in his jacket pocket. I guess he picked it up in the middle of the chaous and forgot to give it to the cops.

                  He was far more than just a great football player.

                  • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 20:23

                    He’s a minister now.

                    • anothertoothpick September 9th, 2016 at 20:26

                      Yeah. He is a great guy. And he could be funny too.

                      I miss guys like that.

                    • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 20:29

                      He wasn’t satisfied with being a fat ex-football player, and he somehow avoided ending up like Jim McMahon.

                    • anothertoothpick September 9th, 2016 at 20:32

                      Yeah, the concussion thing huh?

                      That is amazing. But I think Rosey was one of those guys that decide it was better to give, than to receive.

                    • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 20:34

                      But a lineman gets as well as gives. And back then they didn’t try to keep players from using their helmets as a weapon.

                    • anothertoothpick September 9th, 2016 at 20:41

                      Those guys where tuff alright.

                      If you get a chance, Larry, YouTube “Art Donavan” and watch his interview with Letterman.

                      I remember him playing, I think he was a Baltimore Colt

                      He was pure old school, blood and guts NFL.

                    • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 20:55

                      Yes, he was with the Colts. They called him Fatso. I saw the interview he did with Carson. He did that for longer than he played football. He was always funny.

                    • Hirightnow September 9th, 2016 at 20:34

                      “It’s alright to cry”…

                      It’s also alright to do needlepoint.

              Sadly, the picture of me in a Dolphin’s uniform with Bob Griese’s number on it (Xmas gift, 1970) is lost to time…

              • anothertoothpick September 9th, 2016 at 20:22

                MY favorite player on the “perfect” Dolphin s team was Mercury Morris.

                • Hirightnow September 9th, 2016 at 20:32

                  Uhh…born in Florida, Dad and Mom’s parents were also from the south…
                  Sure, Morris was a good supporting player…but what father wouldn’t want his son to idolize Bob, rather than that…running back?

            • The Original Just Me September 10th, 2016 at 06:29

              # 76 looks like he has an opinion. And it is HIS.

              • Larry Schmitt September 10th, 2016 at 06:44

                That’s Rosey.

                • The Original Just Me September 10th, 2016 at 06:50

                  Good Players. I think Football ended when Terry Bradshaw and Mean Joe Green retired. AND Joe Namath put Nylons on. :+)

  7. amersham1046 September 9th, 2016 at 19:17

    He may not know much about what the Founding Fathers would do,
    But on the plus side he can play “Dixie” on a B-flat duck call

  8. nola878 September 9th, 2016 at 19:35

    In my studied opinion, the founders would have committed you to the nut house.

    And if you’d been around Salem 80 years or so before, you’d have been tried for witchcraft.

  9. Gary Parillo September 9th, 2016 at 19:39

    This man is misguided.It is not a violation of the constitution for the government “of the people” to assist the people in times of crises.What was the population of the country at the time of the founders compared to noe? My guess is the founders,unlike this moron,would have been wise enough to adjust to the times we live in now,without violating any basics of the constitution.

    • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 19:40

      And there were no trailer parks for tornadoes to target back then.

      • Gary Parillo September 9th, 2016 at 19:42

        Lol, and that is the point in a nutshell.

        • Larry Schmitt September 9th, 2016 at 19:46

          Emphasis on the “nut.”

    • Hirightnow September 9th, 2016 at 19:48

      “…promote the general welfare…”

  10. Ed VanDyke September 9th, 2016 at 20:03

    {{{Hear that, America? If you can’t put your house on the high ground of your 1100 acres, and count on your immediate neighbors to help you through the hard times, then the founders weren’t talking about your life, liberty, happiness… This system of 300 million neighbors helping each other out is just downright unpatriotic.}}}…

    Well if that is the way he “thinks” why does he need anyone else’s money to live off of? Why doesn’t he get his dirty a$$ off the TV and get a damn job?

  12. Tommie September 9th, 2016 at 23:06

    Don’t really care for “our” founders since they had slaves and wrote on that piece of paper saying, “we are all created equal.” Now that I said that, I do feel that the founders would want to help those in the south since slavery was making huge profits for the slave owners!

  17. bunya September 10th, 2016 at 20:08

    Such a fine, Christian man. He’s “pro-life”, but thinks his life is worth more than the lives of of animals and women. I, myself, vehemently disagree. I think he’s lower than dog sh*t.
    He’s a homophobe, which leads me to believe he’s a closeted gay. But, most importantly, he hates his fellow man so much he’d allow them to die in horrific circumstances, because it’s the will of God. What an asshole.

  18. Jackie Conner September 11th, 2016 at 03:26

    This dude could pass as Tramps first cousin twice removed. The rest of the family is as as ignorant as Phil. The show should be called Dingbat Dynasty! His son Willie is as bad,if not worse than, him.If you ask me they are all a few Quakers short of a a box of saltines!
    VOTE DEMOCRAT. ACT BLUE. I’M WITH HER!
