Phil Robertson, the controversial star of the hit TV show "Duck Dynasty" will address the upcoming Republican Leadership Conference on Thursday.

Robertson will talk to the annual confab in the evening of its opening day, the conference announced Tuesday. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) are among the people also scheduled to speak Thursday evening at the conference in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Robertson stoked controversy last year when he called homosexuality a sin and compared it to bestiality in a GQ profile, leading A&E to suspend him from "Duck Dynasty" a show that chronicles his Louisiana family, which created a duck call instrument popular among hunters. The suspension was later lifted by A&E and Robertson was restored to the show.

2. How pathetic is that. That's all the GOP has to try and grab headlines? Duck Dynasty.

A family that grew beards and act dumb to get rich off of Mericans? Fits. Perfectly. Phoney.

5. Yep, the republican ideal American, their focus group. What a joke the republican party

has become. There was a time, with the old republicans, when they had some good ideas and a balance could be found that benefited many Americans. Today, those days are long gone.

4. Phil Robertson is a Republican spokeman alright. You show me a bigoted racist and I'll show you a

Republican.

6. They have now gathered all under one tent. Someone tells me they're a republican and now I can size

them up immediately, one knows what they stand for.

7. One is known by the company he keeps.
