Shep Smith Makes Apparent Slam Of Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day As ‘National Day Of Intolerance’

As one of the main charms of Fox News’ Studio B With Shepard Smith is that anything can happen, and it usually does. For example, as Smith was tossing to commercial Wednesday afternoon, he took what seemed like a hard shot at former Arkansas Governor and Fox stablemate Mike Huckabee‘s “Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day,” invented to celebrate that restaurant chain’s opposition to marriage equality.

Delivering one of those banal date-related factoids that news shows throw out there every so often, Smith said “It’s National Badminton Day,” then added “forget National Day of Intolerance, let’s just stay with badminton.” Smith has previously express support for marriage equality.

Today was also the anniversary of the beginning of the Warsaw uprising.

Rather than "badminton Day" Shemp should have made mention of that.

Shemp is a fool.

“As one of the main charms of Fox News’ Studio B . . . “

It’s been a long time since I considered Fox News to have charms at all, let alone this Gallus-Fil-A.

One look at this guy should be enough to see he can’t be trusted.

Well, dunno what’s up with Shep, but I happened to be driving past the Hollywood, CA Chick-fil-a store at around 8:00 after work tonight, and the line was still around the corner. Along with about half a dozen dispirited protesters on the corner.

Hollywood, California.

I took this as a good sign.

It has been a long time since I tolerated Shrimp Smith. I refuse to watch Fox when he is on.

Shlep Smith is a moronic far left POS. I won’t watch Fox News when he’s on. I’ve told the network this in an email too.

I haven’t been able to stand him since he cried on camera about the “thousands of deaths” in New Orleans after Katrina. He just makes it up as he goes along. What a dope.

“forget National Day of Intolerance, ... “

tol·er·ate (tl-rt)
tr.v. tol·er·at·ed, tol·er·at·ing, tol·er·ates
1. To allow without prohibiting or opposing; permit.
2. To recognize and respect (the rights, beliefs, or practices of others).
3. To put up with; endure.

The homosexualists have tolerance. What they want is acceptance and approval.
“Intolerance” was when authorities would thrust a white-hot poker into the rectum of a homosexual, as was done to Edward II by his wife, possibly upon grounds of fraud in the inception regarding their marriage.

We conservatives certainly aren’t saying we should return to those days as, judging from the reaction of the homos and their allies, they seem to think following Dan Cathy’s innocuous statement of opinion on the way things have been for thousands of years, as set forth in the Bible, the Torah and the Kuran, and the way they should be. One would think the left whould tolerate this difference of opinion with a liberal attitude.
We’re just saying that if the Brotherhood of Shemps get their: “We All Have AIDs!” agitprop commercials, that notions of fairness/equal time require that the (great) majority of us be able to respond by saying: “No, we don’t. And here’s why ...”. As just one thing.

Yes, I am intolerant. The perverts are trying to tell us that we as a society should take two guys having anal sex with each other and put that in the same category as a man and a woman. Why should I tolerate that? Someone please explain that to me.

You may be on to something. We have a lot of stealth liberals at Fox but we have a media industry that even for conservative shows is often produced & ran by leftists.

I can’t stand him. When the Mighty Mississup flooded here, Shep came to town. I made sure to go downtown to see him up close to check to see whether he actually wears eyeliner and mascara. SURE ENOUGH!

Yes, and anal sex regarded as a sacrament and a point of immense pride.

FOX, thanks for becoming yet another biased POS media outlet.

And Shep, STFU with your opinion. We don’t give a good God Damn about what you think. M-K?

My least favorite Fox personality. A sports doofus who got pushed into a job way over his head.
His grasp of history and politics came out of a cereal box.
