Really unbelievable, what Chick-Fil-A is taking for simply being an excellent, respectful business which supports traditional marriage but imposes it on no one. We are living in an insane era for sure. No longer any doubt.

[above, the Mayor of the City of Boston's communication to Dan Cathy]

I will be going to CFA on August 1st for CFA Appreciation Day. I’m sure a lot of other people will as well. I am so happy to be able to support a company like CFA. I loved them before but now I am even happier to spend my money there.

“Chicago’s mayor, Rahm Emanuel, followed suit with his own statement: “Chick-fil-A values are not Chicago values. “

I would sincerely hope they are not.

I’ve had lunch at two different CFAs this week. Both were packed. I don’t think they are worried.

CFA should take that letter and sue the snot out of Boston for violation of constitutional rights. It is illegal for the government to target people for reprisal. Maybe if Boston lost a few billion they would get rid of the jackass.

The Democrats are just grandstanding for campaign donations from gay interest groups.

Well hey, what else are they gonna do? Talk about the economy and unemployment?

I’m not familiar with the entirety of the conflict, but a Facebook friend posted that the head of Chick-fil-a was advocating “killing” gay people.

Anyone know anything about that? Seemed hyperbolic.

That said ... this seems a scary precedent. Maybe it’s not a precedent ... but allowing only government approved businesses to have permits seems very totalitarian.

This is a Romney commercial in the making. Put Obama on the spot.

Call out the moonbats and force the networks to get involved.

Obama will either have to support business or the gay agenda. If he supports business, the gays walk. If he supports the gays, it confirms he is anti-business.

Keep talking liberal idiots, you’re helping Chick-Fil-A with each stupid statement and action.

No, on the contrary, the President of Chick-Fil-A said only that he supports traditional marriage, and that the business treats its customers with equal respect, barring none.

The gossip and rumor mill is obviously intent on fanning the flames. Hyperbole and then some!

Yes, I believe it is a very scary precedent. The letter from the Boston Mayor is chilling in my opinion. How would the pro-gay set like to receive such a letter? They would cry bloody murder.

Yes he said that. He really said that. It's true. Why would you even question that he said that?

Chick-fil-A does have a Facebook page. I went there and hit “like”.

Hey everyone!

Forget about Obama's depressed economy, no jobs, Fast & Furious, terrorists in the White House and the constitution he is trashing.

Look over here!

Someone at Chick-Fil-A doesn't like gay marriage.
