(Must see video...Ugh)
The limitless imagination of the American marketing mind came to the fore again this week, as a San Francisco Burger King franchise unveiled its Proud Whopper in honor of LGBT Week.
Its exactly the same as a regular flame-grilled Whopper, but inside its rainbow-colored wrapper read the words, We are all the same inside.
Senior Vice President Fernando Machado told Fox News, It showcases who we are as a brand. It shows how we, as a brand, believe in self-expression.
The fast food chain even produced a video to highlight the campaign, ending with a little girl yelling, I love my two mommies, although only one restaurant is in on the promotion.

Every day presents a new nadir in American culture.
A few short years ago, who could have ever predicted such perverted insanity? A major American company basically promoting faggot-burgers, in celebration of anus-feces sex?
This is a culture, and a country, that is clearly entering into its death-throes.

Burger King is not good enough or unique enough to survive bad press.
This will not go well for them.

Actually a “Pride” sandwich would be an all-beef wiener, shoved between two buns. And better not to ask about the “secret sauce”.
And for the Lesbian set, there’s always the “Pride” Fish Taco. . .

Will they also sell a TEA Party Burger, a Christian Burger and a RINO Burger to “show how we are all the same on the inside”??

The Burger King and McDonalds in our area are so nasty you should have gloves, mask and a hazmat suite. Don't forget to make sure you shot card is up to date. And the people that eat there are slugs.

>> Every day presents a new nadir in American culture.
Some things occur out of phase with regard to actual trends. BK isn’t exactly at the forefront of evangelizing sodomy despite its obvious desire to stick it in customers’ buns.

Burger King, trying to be the anti-ChikFilA.
Every CFA is a packed madhouse at lunch and supper times after all the kerfuffle about supporting traditional marriage.
BK is destined to be empty after this stupid stunt.

‘In and Out Burgers’ would be best to stay out of this rainbow gayfest. They could unleash a madness with that ready made name.
