Allen West weighed in on the national controversy over Chick-Fil-A and the fact that many on the left, including Rahm Emanuel are speaking out against the private company. Some are calling for bans on the restaurants due to recent views expressed by the company's president, who opposes gay marriage. City mayors, Hollywood stars, and even the ACLU have weighed in on the issue. West, in true form did not hold back an opinion. "I love some Chick-Fil-A. When I finish here I'm going to Chick-Fil-A," said West, but followed up with more sobering remarks:

Thus, many people, especially young people, do not want to see out of the mainstream.

When my daughter was in college, the kids in groups all pretended to be homo tolerant. When they weren't in a group, the homo jokes were all over the place. In fact, some of the jokes she came home and told me about were really, really, disgusting. Believe me, they'd make the homos weep and gnash their teeth.

Pull the kids aside, and they'll tell you the truth. They think the homos are gross, too.

I’ll never understand how the pink mafia gets such huge amounts of people willing to defend them.

The same way the muslims do, except that instead of being threatened with shortening at the neck they threaten with boycotts and lawsuits.

I’m sure that’s true. But no one wants to get called names or bullied so they toe the line and so it seems to everyone else that most people agree.

Going to be really interesting to watch the media studiously ignore the massive increase in CFA’s business. Everything ‘m reading here tells me the place is going off the charts, and I know the MSM will try to will it into non-existence.

Hard to know unless they mention it. CFA is a private company, so they probably keep earnings confidential.

However in this case, it wouldn’t hurt to acknowledge all the folks standing up to support them.

“... amid a marketing crisis.”

Hmmmmmm.... they could create an ad saying that he died fighting to keep his country. That should solve the marketing problem.

I’m not sure that West would accept the offer. :)

You know if he was VP, that he would be attacked for four years by the DEMS, liberals, homos, Muslims, women, and the blacks. I wouldn't want the job either.

So you’re admitting that that was you’re target, a racist remark. I’m a cracker in Montana who lives next to a black farmer. We’re both Tea Party guys. We can say anything to eachother. But on this forum where the world is trying to make everything “conservative” racist, you need to knock it off. My neighbor and good friend would have laughed at it. ABC News will make it “The Theme of A Free Republic Heart”.

Simple:

It is the INVASIONS of the HETEROSEXUALS Snatchers.

Decent Americans, WHO should know better, have been captured by the lies and half-truths of the gay movement.
I have friends, straight people I know to be generally conservative and moral, who think gays are special and need all the support they can get. A girlfriend once called me a homophobe because I told her I walked to a different subway car, when I saw a same sex couple making out, in the car I was in.

The Invasion of the Heterosexual Snatchers. I wonder where those PODS are?
