“Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel came out in support of Moreno shortly after the announcement, but has since backpedaled after critics called the ban a violation of the restaurant’s First Amendment rights.”

Heh, I do so love seeing politicians scuttle for cover once the spotlight gets put on them.

They’re an awful lot like cockroaches in that respect, I’ve noticed.

If they keep this up, the handful might eventually grow to a fistful, and that will distract them enough to make them forget all about it.

The Brotherhood of United Grubs and Insects (BUG) would like an apology for being compared to Rahm Emanuel.

And then one of the GLN members asked him, “…Who’s Anita Bryant?”

Exactly! As if he really knows himself. It’s like hearing a lecture on the 60’s and 70’s from a 22 year old. It makes me laugh.

I wasn’t aware that queer marriage was legal in Chicago. So “Chicago values” don’t include queer marriage.

Anita Bryant was correct in all of her statements regarding homosexual activists.

“As our movement against Anita Bryant showed a generation ago, even very entrenched bigots can be defeated by smart and effective use of boycotts, demonstrations and other direct mobilizations of LGBTI’s and our allies,” said Andy Thayer of the Gay Liberation, the group which initiated next Wednesday’s protest, in a media release Friday.

They defeated Anita Bryant? In their dreams.

I wonder how many protesters they'll get this time. 11 instead of 10?

Members of the Gay Liberation Network, a local direct-action LGBT rights group, and other LGBT activists have called for a third protest outside of the River North Chick-fil-A — this time on Wednesday, Aug. 8 at 4:30 p.m.

Because the first one worked oh, so well!!!

Epic Fail Redux!

It be more productive for them to picket Victoria Secret for tighty whitey panties.

Wow! Anita Bryant; that goes way back!

I think of her when I hear “for any suffer for the cause of Christ, this is the glory of God.....this is acceptable with God.” (1 Peter 4:12-16; James 1:12)

We can read the awful list of the unrighteousness that shall not inherit the kingdom of God.....in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10) Then it says in verse 11....”SUCH WERE SOME OF YOU”

Then let us read: “Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persaude men....” (2 Corinthians 5:11a)

Blessed be Anita Bryant for her faithfulness to the message and cause of Christ!

The Chick-A-Fil Appreciation Day might have had a stellar turnout, but it will only happen once. In contrast, these LBGT groups are relentless and NEVER give up. Now that Chick-A-Fil is in their cross hairs, look for this to continue for year.

And this time make sure the media has left before calling it a day. It's embarrassing when the protesters leave the scene before the news vans do.

Gee, I thought Rahm Emmanuel was Mr. Tough Guy.

Why didn’t he go to the microphones and growl, “I’m sticking to my guns, no Chick Fil-A in Chicago. Come and get me, coppers!!”

So disappointing.......

This is getting very redundant.

What the queers don’t understand is they are putting Chick-fil-A in the fortune 500 class, without knowing it. There is a saying in politics,that I believe works here also.

“I don’t care what you say about me, as long as you keep my name in front of the public.”

A few gays and the media are doing a yeoman’s job of promoting Chick-fil-A. This is a businessman’s dream come true.
