A wonderful spot for a cozy evening meal accomodating Barney Frank and his new “bride”, Ben Dover.

I proudly patronize Chick-fil-A and have for about 30 years.

Whenever possible I patronize Lowe’s (rather than “Homo Depot”).

And after a promotional email I recently received from Office Depot, from whom I have purchased a LOT of ink, I will be giving more of my business to their competitors, also.

Looks like another trip to Chick Fil A for me. Those shakes are pure evil as is that spicy sandwich. And I am someone who voted against the marriage amendment.

Chick-fil-A’s president, Dan Cathy, told a Baptist newspaper that he supported the “biblical” definition of family. – Spitzer

Oh the horror!

Seriously, I hope the left keeps this up. Obama’s exposed himself with the “you didn’t build that” major gaffe on private enterprise and now this attack on mainstream American values. Keep it up guys. It’s like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

The hypocrisy burns more than horseradish sauce.

Okay, horseradish sauce does not really burn, but you get where I am going.

Remember when Obama shared Dan Cathy’s views? Back in 2008 when he was trying to get elected. Then Obama changed this year so as not to lose that gay contribution money.

Yup. And for some reason, those same politicians now screaming about Chick-Fil-A all supported him. You didn’t see Client #9 on the air denouncing him. You didn’t see Tom Mannino demanding he stay out of the city. You didn’t see Rahm Emanuel refusing to work for him. Maybe it’s because they knew he was lying back then (as on most everything else).

As for boycotts, I can only tell you that around here, they’re not having too much success. I stopped by the local Chick-Fil-A on Tuesday for a late lunch about 1:30pm. Every table in the place was full and there were lines three or four deep in front of each register.

Yep, the lines at our local chick fil a stores are longer than usual by double! LOL, I think they have cashed in! And they didn’t have to subornate their beliefs to do so! Lolololololololol!

Really, who are the intolerant ones? It is the left by far…. If you support the DOMA they say you are the intolerant… Rediculous!

The unfortunate thing for me is that I would have to make a 160 mile round trip to eat at one of their restaurants . I can’t be with them in person but I’m with them in spirit. Hope the homies don’t hate me for that (actually I don’t care if they do).

I suspect old Eliot thinks there are some rewards in being a Molotov cocktail, especially given that he’s closed out a lot of other options.

At least you have one relatively nearby, Iva. I’d have to travel out of state just to start looking for one!

But for those of you who are in similar circumstances, take a minute, find a PAC that is supported by Cathy, and send them the equivalent of what you’d spend on the meal anyway, and attach a note saying the donation is due to and in the name of Mr. Cathy.

It gets worse. Our illustrious mayor is now blathering on about “Chicago values.”

What next? Kick out the Irish Catholics? Kick out the Catholic churches?

And Rahm has now embraced the Nation of Islam.

In best Don Imus voice: You can’t make this stuff up!

Hmmm…I wonder when these cities will begin banning Christian Churches
Kate says:

I have to say, after Spinzter’s hijinx with call girls, I would say his opinion has zero value with me!

Mr. Cathy owns a business and should be able to run it the way he chooses….the charges by the gay organizations are unfounded. It’s just their way of being relevant and staying in the news….

Oh by the way, shouldn’t we categorize crime by sexual preference i.e. Penn State Sandusky is a GAY child predator!

In NYC last week we had a witness report of a person who tried to snatch a child off a playground. The perp was grabbed by a playground helper who decked him, knocking him to the ground at which time a group of adult bystanders began to kick the tar out of him and left him unconscious on the sidewalk. Our kids were ther helping out with a free basketball camp and witnessed the entire thing….unnerving for all. But, street justice in NYC I suppose. Didn’t make the news, either.
Great White Rat says:

July 26, 2012 at 12:07 pm

Whoa….get this: the NYT-owned Boston Globe has a well-reasoned editorial opposing the mayor’s Chick-Fil-A stance.

From the editorial:

A business owner’s political or religious beliefs should not be a test for the worthiness of his or her application for a business license.

Can’t remember the last time I agreed with anything that came out of the NYT empire. This isn’t April Fool’s Day….does someone over there actually have functioning neurons??

@Drew:

Our illustrious mayor is now blathering on about “Chicago values.”…And Rahm has now embraced the Nation of Islam.

So let me see if I follow this: no Chick-Fil-A for Chicago because the founder’s family doesn’t have “Chicago values”, which among other things probably means he doesn’t take bribes and only votes once per election.

But the Nation of Islam can open a restaurant in Chicago and His Honor is fine with that.

Let’s not forget that the Nation of Islam’s values – which are presumably the same as Rahm’s “Chicago values” – include anti-semitism, racism, and….um….what was that other thing…oh yeah, I remember: opposing gay marriage.

So supporting traditional marriage in Chicago is OK as long as you’re also anti-semitic and racist. Otherwise it’s the most evil thing known to man.

All of which makes perfect sense if you’re a liberal, I guess.

Whenever some idiot does something like this to CFA,I make it a point to eat there, as I did yesterday. The place was mobbed, just packed, so this kerfluffle doesn’t seem to be hurting their business where I live anyway.

The sammich was delicious, as usual, and again, as usual, the lemonade rocked.

Best fast food out there. The worst service I’ve gotten at a CFA is better than the best service at any other fast food joint. Management must be doing something right, the workers are actually pleasant and helpful, rather than lazy and surly.

Only downside is I sometimes get a hankering for a chicken biscuit on a Sunday, but I think it’s good that he follows his faith and shuts on Sundays. As the Cathy’s say, even if you aren’t religious, everyone needs one regular day off they can spend with their families.

I couldn’t agree more. As I said above, out here in NJ, the boycott is going nowhere, and it’s the main reason I made it a point to stop by there this week.

Good point about the service, too. I’ve noticed the same thing. The employees are organized and efficient and always pleasant. Either CFA has an excellent training program, or they treat their employees well, or both. The only fast food place around here with the same level of service is the local Arby’s.

In contrast, about 5 years ago I made the mistake of stopping by the local Burger King one day. The jackass behind the counter got annoyed with me because I didn’t order in Spanish. Needless to say, I’ll never darken the door of a BK again.
Carlos says:

July 26, 2012 at 11:01 pm

But GWR, I thought that Spanish was the language of choice at BK (and most other fast food joints, Mickey D’s and Wendy’s included). It’s just one more sign the Hispanics are determined to retake this country after losing everything 160 years ago.

Talk about holding a grudge! Even Johnny Reb didn’t hold that grudge that long.

CFA’s has one of the best customer service training programs, check out this training video.

**==
Way to go and I support you 100% and I will eat at your restaurant every time I get a chance. I will have to drive about 30 miles to do so but you can bet I surely will. I say stand your grounds as to what you believe in, since there are so many businesses that want to shy away from this problem in America. Hopefully this will get you more business than ever and you will prosper more and more for standing up for what is right.
I am so so proud of you.
