So, the Chrisleys, the "squeaky clean" CHRISTIAN couple who, for years, hosted a TV show and
held themselves up as paragons of virtue and "proof" that God rewards the hardworking faithful---are starting their prison sentences. He will serve 12 years; she will serve 7. It seems their "success" involved frauds that yielded them over 30 million dollars and funded their $300,000 a year clothes spending.
But, hey---at least they weren't gay and didn't do doobies, amiright?
Alternative title: Dollar Store TheMastersNemesis Saunters Over to DailyMail.comLurking DUmmies who think you've found a penny, let me explain this whole Chrisleys thing to you, from the perspective of an actual conservative:
The Chrisleys are popular with the group of idiots who watch reality TV. They are on par with the Kardashians, the Real Housewives, and apparently every black person in Atlanta, because it seems to me that if you navigate reality TV programs enough, you will eventually encounter every black person in the city of Atlanta.
I do not believe that any Christian would recognize the Chrisleys as Christians, nor would they recognize any of the Chrisley's values as Christian. Any Christian who does relate to them, in any case, is free to do so, this being a free country and all.
Having been virtually locked in a hotel room one snowy day, I actually watched an episode of that dreck, and here is my takeaway:
1. The taste in clothing, houses, and vehicles endemic to reality TV stars is puzzling to me, but at least it makes them easy to identify;
2. These people have had more plastic surgery than the average reality TV star;
3. That Chrisley father is gayer than three dudes blowing two dudes, so consequently...
4. ...that Chrisley mother hasn't been shtupped in decades, unless...
5. ...one of the dudes on adjoining reality shows is shtupping her on the sly, which makes you think...
6. ...that Chrisley father, who is gayer than an extra in a Cher music video, is also getting shtupped by the same dude who's shtupping his wife, and indeed...
7. ...I suspect the only person happier than me that he's going to prison is HIM, seeing as how anal sexual congress is one way to make your way in prison.
In any event, Atticus, you Failed-i-cus. Why don't you ****Officus.
