Made my first trip today, eating the Spicy Chicken as we type.
I’m going to Chik filet at the mall today. And I’ll laugh at the liberals around the mall lol
Homosexuals and their supporters are the new bigots.
Do they deliver to Washington State?
Chick filet is better than the other fast food places here in this inner city. the Mcdonalds in the inner city has terrible service and rotten food. I won’t go there anymore. the chik filet has courteous peoplee and good food. this city And America are going down. All I see now is feral beasts all around. what a hell hole.
To surmise that a puppeteer is gay based solely on the implied gender of his characters Is a little bit of a stretch. Most male ventriloquists have “male” dummies. Paul Winchell had Jerry Mahoney and Knucklehead Smiff, Edgar Bergan had Charlie McCarthy and Snerdly Snodgrass, and almost all of Terry Fator’s dummies are male, as are Jeff Dunham’s characters.
Then there’s Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Elmer Fudd, Wil E. Coyote, were all male characters, too.
The Three Stooges, Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, Martin and Lewis...all male characters too.
It’s true that gays are loud and absurd, but can’t start seeing every pairing of same-sex people as “couples”. Has fear of the gays and political correctness made us that paranoid?
Whether Jim Henson was gay is immaterial, as he is long-since dead. It
is whomever is running his company now that is defending gay marriage by attacking CFA. Any boycott toward the current owners for their attack on CFA is the point, not the gender of imaginary characters.
To be clear, I intend to fully boycott the Henson company, but based on their attack on CFA, not on puppet gender. Being ludicrous will not win the battle...leave ludicrous up to the gays.
Yes
Republican pledges support for medical marijuana, reproductive choice
The two candidates vying for the Florida House District 120 seat took turns Monday night espousing support for gay rights, including the right to marry and adopt babies.

Yes, you can walk inside and order "to go" or you can go through the drive thru.
Yes like McDonald's it is fast food wrapped in paper and they even have drive-through. But unlike McDonald's the food actually tastes good.
There is not a doubt in my mind that we are having to choose which side we will be on in the coming months and years. I have several gay friends of both sexes, and I love them all dearly; however, I have prayed about this “gay marriage” issue many times and the answer is always the same - obey my Word. It never varies. I am not the hater here, my friends who are foaming at the mouth rabid ideologues are the haters. They will cut me to the quick because I do not believe in their “right” to marriage. Gay marriage will be shoved down our throats in the very near future and it will take tremendous courage to speak out against it. The world is upside down, black is white, evil is good (and vice versa), exactly how the Bible told us it would be.
Chicken NEVER tasted better.
I’ll be eating Chicken tonight
Some in the gay “community” think Jerry Sandusky had a constitutional “right” to man-boy “love”.
The MSM will not highlight this point of view.
Will be there for breakfast.
No, they bury that in silence for obvious reasons.
The mayor has no objections to a mosque being built in his city, even though the head imam has wondered aloud whether homosexuals should be burned to death or tossed off of buildings. I think the city even donated the land for the mosque.
This is a war against Christianity, pure and simple.
Went to support a Chik fil la at the Lakeland (Fl) mall yesterday. The double lane drive thru was totally backed up to the road and was SRO inside.
I waited in line for my order - glad to see everyone supporting them!
Sorry you have to live within 15 miles of the Chick-fil-A in Alliance(FortWorth) and I think Washington is just a smidgen over the limit.
I hear you about ventriloquists having mostly male dummies, but they are only one dummy per lap, reflecting the sex of the ventriloquist -- not an entire cast of characters. Bugs Bunny and the other Warner Bros. cartoon characters you mentioned, the Stooges, Laurel and Hardy, Abbot and Costello, and Martin and Lewis all had two things in common that the Muppets did not:
• first, they were all strictly entertainment and not about children's education; and
• second, they all pre-dated the movement for women's equality that directly coincided with the rise of the Muppets.
Most parents of children of the 80s and 90s were eager to teach both their male and female children that women were not just drag queen figures of fun and that males were not the only persons worth taking the lead role. Since the Muppets were promoted as primarily in the business of children's education, the sex balance mattered a great deal; yet it was decidedly off-kilter for the times then and the times now.
I could care less if Henson was gay or not gay. But for whatever reason, he did not present images of a balance of power, interest or inspiration between the sexes.
Darn. Guess I’ll just have to petitio them to build one here.
