It motivated me. I just went out and bought Chik-fil-A for lunch.
Had breakfast there today myself, and I’m sure I’ll have dinner there sometime this weekend.
Frankly if I have to eat fast food, if I can find a chick-fil-a that’s where I am going.. plus they have play areas in all their free standing restaurants for the kids, so double score.
Getting their base angry over this won’t do a darned thing unless Obama plans to bring down the Federal hammer on Chick-Fil-A.
I would presume it would be easy for Chick-Fil-A to make a kosher product.
Open it in Brookline, MA (a borough of greater Boston), which has a large Orthodox Jewish population.
Be the only place in the world to get a Chick-Fil-A on Sunday (close it on Shabbos).
Remember, August 1 is CFA Appreciation Day (per Huckabee). Go out and support them. From what I have been hearing, their business is booming!
funny thing. When I don’t like something, when “we” on the right don’t like something (MSNBC and newspapers as an example) we just don’t patronize it. When they don’t like something (like the USA, religion and guns for instance) they try extortion to get it to change and when it won’t they want to ban it or shut it down.
These people are the very definition of fascists.
Had dinner there last night...will have it again later tonight.
Most courteous and helpful staff I have ever come across in a fast food restaurant.
Pretty good food too.
I’m sure Moochelle has plenty of that fried chicken on takeout. They probably had a special fried chicken door installed at the wh.
They mistakenly believe that a) their views are right. b) anyone who disagrees with them is wrong. c) since they're good and nice, then those who disagree with them are bad and evil. And they'll use that belief to try destroying the lives of anyone with whom they disagree.
The prophets Parker and Stone saw this a long time ago, and presented it in their "Deathcamp of Tolerance" episode.

There has been one example after another, of their increased boldness, and the election of a radical alien--regardless of where he was physically born--oriented Marxist in 2008, certainly did not diminish their enthusiasm.
Some of the examples, which were direct attacks on religious freedom, included a vendetta against the private Christian, Bob Jones University, in 2000; stepped up attacks on public display of the Ten Commandments; the attacks on the Boy Scouts, about the same time, for adhering to traditional Western values; the attacks on the Southern Baptists, in general, for reaffirming traditional values; as the recent attacks on Roman Catholics for refusing to let the Leftist Obama administration dictate forced compliance with direct attacks on religious institutions. Of course the absurd "Gay Pride" weeks, celebrated by Governmental departments, since the Clinton Administration, as well as ever more bizarre new programs in public education.
The unfortunate thing is that too few on our side have yet realized that these attacks are not accidental or random; but reflect the same deep hatred for American--and Western--traditions, that the President's former Pastor exhibited from the pulpit, when he was Obama's spiritual advisor.
This campaign has long used the Southern Christian traditionalist in the same way that Hitler used the German Jews, as a scape-goat to rally the base elements, looking for someone to blame for all their problems. It is, as observed, incredibly ugly; but likely to get considerably worse, unless more people stand up to it.

All three movements--even as what we have mistakenly let the Left call "Liberalism" in America, since FDR, reflect a Compulsion For Uniformity. Because they do reflect compulsive impulses, the hatred they display is never completely rational--no more than are their arguments in behalf of what they seek to market.

I was going to cook pork chops for dinner but now I am going to Chic fil a.
Looks like it will be Chik-fil-a tonight for dinner, and breakfast tomorrow morning. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Would that all political activity tasted this good!
That overwhelmingly describes them, but not all. There are still the "FDR Democrats," the small and dwindling group of old-timers who were indoctrinated during the Great Depression, who are socially conservative, but will vote Democrat even if Satan is the candidate.
I talk to them all the time, and they have to deliberately brainwash themselves to believe provable lies in order not to go insane.
I agree with you on the time frame, but I think the main reason for the "launch" was they realized they were becoming old and increasingly irrelevant, and if they didn't make one more push for their '60s ideals, time would pass them by.
Time has, of course. They are irrelevant. It's only the media that worships the '60s as the height of cool that gives these strident, increasingly crazy people a voice.
The author needs to go one more level down. Leftists stand for principles only to the extent it advances the leftist agenda. The second that a principle does not, it gets thrown under the bus. Leftists will even tell the truth but only if it advances the broader lie.
I let them know why. I would encourage every one to let their corporate office know, that you support them. Hopefully it will help keep them from caving in.
We don’t have a Chick-Fil-A anywhere near us, but if we did, we would love to patronize them.
If we see any in our travels, we will be sure to stop to eat there. We still have 9 kids living at home, six of whom are teenagers, so we can eat a LOT.
