Fried chicken for Jesus is more logically defensible in this instance than Jews for the destruction of Israel, Mr. Frum.
Frum is, frankly, a retarded neo-con. He thought Iraqis would welcome us with flowers and kisses, that’s they’re blank slates waiting for us to write on. Whereas American conservatives are troglodytes with a missing chromosome. I think we’d be better off if he returned to his liberal roots, if he hasn’t already. It’s no small relief that he’s no longer working for the GOP in any capacity.
That is persecution, and we are tired of being persecuted, Mr. Frum. We hold views that have been accepted since before this country was created. The homos and the Dems want to create a police state where everything is regulated by them. Do you really want that?
Any fool can see this is a free speech issue. Dan Cathy has the right to express his views without worries that his business will be attacked by liberal government lackeys like the three mayors and other liberal fools.
This issue really has my Irish up! I've never eaten at a Chick-fil-A but I'm going to make a special trip to a nearby city Monday for lunch there. I don't even share the same beliefs as Cathy but, like Voltaire, I'll fight to the death for his right to express them.
While Frum continues to pursue his worldview (as most in the Media do), the singular effect of individual protests continue to make there presence known to us, the peons.
It’s nice of those media folks to continue to point out the bigger picture to us lesser folk but we have to make do with the individual fight for freedom and it is never part of their world! So Frum...please just get lost - we will deal with the issues as WE see fit!
Frumking idiot.
Frum needs to go back to Canada and stay there.
Canada ping. Whenever I think Frum couldn’t sink further I’m proven wrong.
To all- in Clive’s absence I’m taking care of the Canada pinglist- FReepmail me to be added or removed.

Given that Dave Frum is one of the biggest drama queens ever to occupy space in the conservative movement…isn’t it ironic? Don’t you think?
I bought my dinner this past evening at Chick-fil-A, Burlington, MA.
I thereby hungrily disrespected the Mayor of the Shitty of Boston, the Mayor of Chicago, the Mayor of San Francisco, and all the slimy Americans who voted for them. It was good chicken, and that was my intent.
Scum such as hold sway over municipal regulators must not throw their weight around, or they must be condemned!
Now the controversy went white-hot. Mayors warning companies to stay out of town because the CEO had expressed a personal opinion on a public issue? Why that sounds like … “fascism!”, thundered Bill O’Reilly on Fox News.
Frum, you are a tool! O'Reilly, dumb as he is, got it exactly right! This is not about queers. It's not about Jesus Christ. It's simply about whether mayors can enforce political correctness !!!
I don’t think it’s proper for a Jewish person like Frum to be so SNARKY about Christians and Christianity.
So many idiots, so little time.
This was all about the US Constitution and people saying ENOUGH to an out of control Government. Yes the sides may have lined up with homosexuals on one and Christians on the other but how could that be otherwise...
Menino was seconded and thirded by Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel and San Francisco mayor Edwin Lee. Chick-Fil-A, said Mayor Emanuel, did not represent “Chicago values” — and he invited them to stay away. Lee took to Twitter to express gratitude that the nearest Chick-Fil-A was located 40 miles away.
Frum acts like the mayors' letters and tweets were just harmless rhetorical fluff. He studiously avoids seeing what conservatives and everyone else saw, including the ACLU, which is that just below the surface was a threat to use the power of government against a business simply because the owner expressed values they disagreed with. Conservatives are generally against whiny victimology but that's obviously not what this was. This was a case of bullying by the government, or at least the threat of it. Frum's attempt to conflate the two is pretty weasely.
To any moron it was perfectly clear that the turn out was huge. Frum was simply disappointed that it was a colossal success for conservatives....of which he is not!!
Frum misses the larger point entirely: it’s not a question of someone feeling sorry for themselves, it’s a question of politicians trying to suppress free speech. Frum seems not to notice that point....or maybe he chooses to ignore it deliberately. I’m betting Frum is pro homo marriage. He knows the pols are all wrong in trying to suppress CFA, but since he supports homo marriage, he has to make it like both parties are wrong.
If the only Christians acceptable to the left are those who think like they do, it bigotry.
Liberals want us to be a step-and-fetch-it type Uncle Tom - or be banned from Chicago, Boston and LA.
Liberals are haters.
As usual, no one, including Frum, has any idea what Frum is talking about.
Frum, you better get to know Jesus soon. Your judgement is soon.
