Same thing is happening with the polls oversampling Democrats by 19% over Republicans and reporting the results as news.

Let them drink their kool-aid. Their credibility will erode even more, although it is hard to see how it can get much lower.

I will no long go to KFC because Nancy Peplosi supports them. Only Chic-Fil-A from now on for Chicken.

This should be the next stage in the evolution of CFA support, e.g., declaring non-support of KFC until they disavow Nancy!

A good question right now is “How are Chick-fil-A sales going to continue?” That is, is this just a one-day blow out, or are lots of these people going to increase how often they eat at CFA?

For this reason, I am encouraging folks to consider getting CFA on a regular basis for groups of all sorts.

For example a boss who regularly gets his staff donuts might consider providing them with a CFA lunch every now and then.

Clubs and teams could also patronize CFA, as such, everyone from Boy Scouts, softball teams, church groups, a very long list there.

And for political meetings, like Tea Party groups, and election night rallies, they might be large enough to get the CFA catering service.

My personal take is that liberals really want the story to go away.

Agree. If Appreciation Day had "failed" (in the eyes of the media), then it would have been front page news and an NPR broadcast. The media are not our friends. Let's treat them the same.

Chick-Fil-A Wednesday saw a rock through a big glass door at the church building where I worship. The glass shards were such a mess that it necessitated the carpet in a large area to be replaced. Just a quiet little church building.

One thing that changed is that I discovered Chick-Fil-A.

Ditto for Mr./Mrs. RightField. We had not realized that they serve grilled chicken, and salads. We ate there twice last week and the food was so delicious. Call us regular customers now, and we rarely get any kind of fast food.

Same here. We are not alone.

I’m anxious to try their diced chicken sandwich, btw.

you can’t control the narrative if your narrative is held in equal with the cartoons. Hard to decide which contains more truth, the comics or the MSM. I’m not interested in opinions of liberal news readers, especially when what I hear them saying doesn’t jive with what’s going on around me in fly over country!

heheheh this is great. This is the weakness of the left. They pretend the evidence is not there..

One thing is unarguable - the libtards hate FACTS and just ignore them. This will be the ace card in the Nov 6 election. Libtards are ignoring the facts like many polls oversampling RATS and then hanging their hats on the results that show the king ahead in their faulty sampling.

Considering that this whole CFA thing is less about homosexuality and more about rabid, seething, boiling hatred of Christ and everyone who follows him?

Not surprised. Not surprised at all.

Meanwhile, back at JC Penney, the parking lot is empty.

OMG! catering to the 98% seems to be a better market strategy than pandering to the 2%.

RNC should take notice. RINO's especially should take notice.

Those same people who swarmed CFA's across the land, are all voters.

Give them someone for whom they can "enthusiastically" vote.

Ergo, Obama’s endorsement of gay marriage and the Democrats including the plank in the DNC now looks like bad, bad timing.

I beg to differ with you. From my point of view it was the perfect timing to get the silent majority, sleeping giant into action.

Agreed. It was bad timing for the Democrats.

Are you actually calling on people to punish KFC, (and their employees & suppliers) for what some politician, not even connected to it says?
Do you really think KFC should have to “disavow Nancy” or suffer a boycott if they don’t?

/sigh
