Wasn’t Clinton backed by Tyson, the Chicken magnate?

Just sayin......

This could all be a weird fund raising strategy,

Buy more chicken, support Tyson, they backed Dems before (could back Obama now)

Okay, I will turn off the Twilght Zone and go to bed now.

But before I do.........

Where does Chic-fil-a buy their Chicken?

Don’t know, does anyone else?

Hope I am wrong, but nothing would shock me anymore.

(I am out of tin foil, see ya later)

To: GrouchoTex

so I think I may have found a more insidious agenda:

“In his 28 years of running the company, Don Tyson often found himself skating on the fine edge of illegality. In the 1990s, he raised eyebrows by advising Hillary Clinton on her cattle investments and donating $29,000 donation to Bill Clinton’s election fund. Once the Clintons got into the White House, however, Tyson really got in trouble for his disturbingly close relationship with Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy, the Cabinet member with the most regulatory power over his company. In addition to giving Espy free plane rides, hotel rooms and football tickets, he also contributed $60,000 to help pay off the campaign debt of Espy’s brother Henry, who launched an unsuccessful campaign for Congress. The resulting scandal led to Espy’s resignation and a $6 million fine for Tyson.”

From what I can gather , Chick- fil-a may (not 100 % certain) buy their chicken fron Pilgrim’s Pride, a Tyson Rival, but this is hearsay, I admit, I can not prove this, as chick-fil-a does not say where their chicken comes from, but it does sound intriguing.

Rival Pilgrim’s Pride was cited by the Clinton Administration for not conforming to USDA regulations. Some suggested that they helped spread MRSA across the US. In a nutshell, Bush over -turned that Clinton Admin decision. Bush did receive donations from Pilgrim’s Pride.

Democrat leaning Tyson and the people they help put into office, are mad, so now they go after Chick-fil-a.
in an attempt to destroy it.

Maybe it is just me, I am a bit Machiavellian,
but I thought there may be more to the story than just gays in an uproar.

At least it is interesting, no?
