In reply to the discussion: 'Duck Dynasty's' Phil Robertson on Indefinite Hiatus Following Anti-Gay Remarks [View all]dawnie51
(959 posts)68. I got the feeling a long time ago...
that we were being played by these people. No way these guys would have the beautiful wives they have looking like they do. This bearded schtick is for the show, period.
