Twas a grand pro-Constitution showing!!
We came for the chicken and a Sweet Tea Party broke out!
“The silent majority went to Chick Fil A”
Yes we did!!!
Had the idiot Mayors not opened their Nazi loving pie holes, this wouldn’t have even happened. Perhaps we should be sending them Thank You notes.
I love pissing off Liberals and filling my tummy at the same time. Chicken Strips, Waffle Fries and a Peach Shake...
The left picked this fight, against this company, at this time.
The left took an interview given by the head of this company to a religious publication. They went online and found this interview. They went into their hissy fit meltdown mode over it, saying to their leftist buddies, can you believe somebody said they believe marriage is a man and a woman????
Then, someone, somewhere, gave the signal to launch this story into the blogosphere and into the MSM. The MSM dutifully went into controversial outrage mode, that this company has people who believe that marriage is a man and a woman. The MSM and the liberals picked this fight. It’s clear that they wanted to intimidate this company, and, to send a message to others in corporate America, that this will happen to them, if they don’t bow down to the homosexual agenda.
The reason the right reacted with Huckabee promoting an appreciation day, and people turning out for same, is because the left started this. The left picked this fight. It’s not as if Chick Fill A had announced some new public campaign against homosexual marriage.
I would add that, as if on cue, liberal mayors of various liberal cities chimed in that Chick Fill A is not welcome in their cities. Again, we saw liberal politicians picking the fight. They pre-emptively announced that this company is not welcome. They fired the first shot so to speak. (Are we still banned from using any violent or military imagery, as we were lectured about after Tucson? If so, I just violated that standard, sorry).
We can debate homosexual marriage all day long, but, the facts should be clear to all. The facts of how this incident with Chick Fill A became a liberal cause of the day should be broadcast far and wide. We can debate the issue, but, let’s all be aware of who wanted to have this debate over a fast food chain and their owner’s opinions.
We are silent no more.
Heard from a friend who works at a Chick-fil-A in Illinois. They took in $35,000 in sales on the historic day, when they were averaging $1,100 per day before that. Customers helped unload the supply truck when they ran out of food.
I mentioned this in another thread, but wanted to bring it up again and get your opinion. I have no scientific facts to back this up, but I believe what we saw Wednesday at Chick-fil-A is what’s coming on election day. The silent majority is ready.
Wasn’t there a point in time not all that long ago that Obama stated he was against same sex marriage? Where we’re all the protests against his then position?
I stopped in this afternoon for a sandwich. I love the original regular chicken sandwich smeared with the original regular Chick-Fil-A sauce. Delicious. I parked and walked inside because the drive-thru line was long.
I have a feeling the people working at Chick-Fil-A have been cautioned not to engage in any conversation with the customers that isn’t food related. I asked if they had been busy lately and got only a quick, “Yep.” “Good”, I replied, and left with my delicious sandwich.
The more that government intrudes into our lives, the more aspects of daily living will become part of public policy debates and thus subject to intense attempts to be influenced on ideology.
This is the exact reason to keep government as small as possible. ObamaCare will explode the reach of government into our personal and private decisions.
