Phil "Duck Dynasty" Robertson doesn't fail to make an ass of himself at CPAC...

So out of every three Americans, one has an STD?

Phil Robertson Preaches To CPAC: STDs Are 'The Revenge Of The Hippies'

Submitted by Kyle Mantyla on Friday, 2/27/2015 2:27 pm

For some reason, organizer's of this year's CPAC conference decided to bestow a First Amendment award upon "Duck Dynasty's" Phil Robertson, apparently for no other reason than because he came under intense criticism for a series of offensive comments that he made about gays and African Americans and for which he refused to apologize.

Going well beyond his allotted time, Robertson treated the audience at CPAC to a rambling sermon about America's desperate need for God, which he illustrated in a variety of ways including, at one point, by railing about STDs.

"One hundred and ten million Americans now have a sexually transmitted illness," Robertson sighed. "There is a penalty to be paid for what the beatniks, who morphed into the hippies [did]. You say what do you call the hundred and ten million people who have sexually transmitted illnesses? It's the revenge of the hippies! Sex drugs and rock and roll have come back to haunt us."

back in 1978. And the Blockheads were on of the best bands that ever trod the boards. That rhythm section of Norman Watt-Roy on bass and the late, great Charley Charles on drums was one for the ages.
