The left picked this fight, against this company, at this time.
The left took an interview given by the head of this company to a religious publication. They went online and found this interview. They went into their hissy fit meltdown mode over it, saying to their leftist buddies, can you believe somebody said they believe marriage is a man and a woman????
Then, someone, somewhere, gave the signal to launch this story into the blogosphere and into the MSM. The MSM dutifully went into controversial outrage mode, that this company has people who believe that marriage is a man and a woman. The MSM and the liberals picked this fight. It’s clear that they wanted to intimidate this company, and, to send a message to others in corporate America, that this will happen to them, if they don’t bow down to the homosexual agenda.
The reason the right reacted with Huckabee promoting an appreciation day, and people turning out for same, is because the left started this. The left picked this fight. It’s not as if Chick Fill A had announced some new public campaign against homosexual marriage.
I would add that, as if on cue, liberal mayors of various liberal cities chimed in that Chick Fill A is not welcome in their cities. Again, we saw liberal politicians picking the fight. They pre-emptively announced that this company is not welcome. They fired the first shot so to speak. (Are we still banned from using any violent or military imagery, as we were lectured about after Tucson? If so, I just violated that standard, sorry).
We can debate homosexual marriage all day long, but, the facts should be clear to all. The facts of how this incident with Chick Fill A became a liberal cause of the day should be broadcast far and wide. We can debate the issue, but, let’s all be aware of who wanted to have this debate over a fast food chain and their owner’s opinions
Very good summation. The left started it against this company. They look like total fools now. (LSM being the torch bearer)
The left was emboldened to start this fight because Oantichrist publicly stated his endorsement of gay marriage and the DNC said it would make it a platform. This isn’t politics, it’s spiritual warfare. If the can get gay marriage legislated, then they can force clergy to marry them in a church. The natural progression is Christians driven underground. We’re already under heavy attack with the health care bill. It’s time people wake up to the real issue.
Don't you love it, a bunch of leftist mayors, none of whose cities are in great financial shape, telling a company, "Our voters don't need your stinkin' jobs, your company isn't welcome in this city."
Well said, and now they’re getting a taste of their own toxic medicine. And being the spoiled immature crybabies they are, look at their reaction. Running behind mommy and daddy’s legs with the lapdogs in the media doing their bidding. What a shameful display of hate, intolerance, ignorance of The Constitution, of peoples’ rights. It wouldn’t end here either, they would be on to their next “cause” Brats that want it all their way while they spread filth and disease around the world.
