Ladies and gentlemen, this is what today’s GOP has reduced itself to: Handing out awards to reality-TV hustlers.

“You must adhere to your conservative beliefs, all of them, and never surrender or compromise them for anyone…”
Meanwhile, in the real world:
“Fifty-two percent of likely Republican primary voters in New Hampshire and South Carolina said opposing gay marriage is either mostly or totally unacceptable, while 47 percent of likely Iowa caucus voters agree.”

As those God-fearing Constitutional Conservatives must know, the First Amendment says that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech.
It says nothing about private, job-creating, religiously-observant corporations disapproving of what their contractually-bound, free-market, private enterprise employees said or did.

Yeah, that is just what the GOP’s right wing needs… another hollywood created, cartoon character hero.

Isn’t he the head of ISIL? If not, perhaps twins separated at birth.
the "Andrew Breitbart Defender of the First Amendment Award"
Eat your heart out, Onion.
Sounds like it’s in about the same league as the “Richard M. Nixon ‘I’m Not a Crook’ Award” for administrative excellence or the “Ronald Reagan ‘Mistakes Were Made’ Award” for effective government.

So now it’s okay with conservatives if you look like a wild-ass hippie…just as long as you can bring a little hate to the party.
Oh, the times they are a-changing. Just not for the better.
Of course he is.

I firmly believe the GOP lives on hate. I know a few, and I’ve yet to hear a real argument from one of them, but damn, can the cuss Obama.
And Bibi!

Why are we even giving space to a TV show that’s just as fake as the rest of “reality” TV? Yeah, I said it. They’ve more or less transformed themselves from preppies to the Dukes of Hazzard. I’m surprised they haven’t worked the General Lee into a few episodes.
Seriously, DD’s ratings have been slipping for quite a while. The mustard is clearly off that hot dog. So I’m guessing this is some sort of “lifetime achievement” award for…something, something, Dark Side.
And CPAC says “First Amendment”. I do not think those words mean what CPAC thinks it means.
Well, this is all fine and dandy but please tell me when DuckMan was ever in danger of having his speech stifled, minimized or altogether withheld? Potentially losing a lucrative entertainment contract–soley at the discretion of said entertainment company–does not count. Our government has never once attempted to prevent this man from speaking his mind or disseminating his “beliefs.” I am going to go out on a limb here and postulate the folks at CU (CPAC) are deliberately conflating the issue so as to praise the man’s “beliefs” (even more so as to even more pick the pockets of the crowd) … or just plainly are dumbasses.

Are you kidding? ALL the dicklock’s will be lining up for this award now…since all you have to do to qualify comes so easy to them…
Repubs are fond of profiling so I must ask: Why would they give an award to some who looks like Osama bin Laden’s bro?? Jeepers, he looks Moooslim!

hahaha. Maybe the GOP could field a Cruz/Duck Dynasty ticket next year. This jackass truly speaks to the base.
Do they have this more than once a year? It seems like they have it like every other month!
And then they’ll be outraged when someone says that the GOP is the party of racism and bigotry.
Public lynchings make happy peasants… no, really, they love that stuff and it keeps morale up.
