I am happy to live in a town that actually has free-standing Chick-Fil-As and not just mall Chick-Fil-As. They seem to do really good business here too.
I bet you get bacon on your sandwich I've never had a
Chick fil A. I thought there was one close to me, but it
was an Arby's. Now after all the attention they've
been given - I am curious to try one. Got on their web site - How are their chicken wraps?

I'm not for discrimination, but I saw the video and the
statement the Dan Cathy gave, and he seemed like a very
nice man and genuine - I believed what he had to say:

Chick-fil-A defends its values | Atlanta Business Chronicle

Dan Cathy said in the statement the company simply has “a long history of trying to encourage and strengthen marriages and families, both within our Chick-fil-A system and with our customers” and is “a family business that serves and values all people regardless of their beliefs or opinions.”

Seems very proud of his family business - reminds me
of Dave Thomas (Wendy's) - what a sweet man, Wendy's
commercials just aren't the same without him

I know what bigot mean, I fail to see how donating money to a pro-family based organization makes anyone a bigot. Of course in the eyes of the radical homosexual community anyone who doesn't openly embrace their lifestyle and promote it is a "bigot who is preaching hate" but to the rest of us, the sane humans on this planet... we know the truth.

I do get it, I don't need to think about anything. Chick-Fil-A is a very successful business and that's mainly because of their traditional family values based business model. The homosexual community is barking up the wrong tree if they think that a gay boycott of Chick-Fil-A is going to do them harm... Families all over the country who support Chick-Fil-A do so because of their values and they'll continue to support them despite these hateful attacks from the gay extremists.

Chick-Fil-A has gained support because of this, think about that and get back to us.

I'd boycott Chick-fil-A, but I don't eat there anyway.

Except when I get a coupon for a free sandwich. Looking at the menu when I went in for the free stuff, it looks overpriced. The free sandwich was mediocre.

However, now I get why some people I know rave about the place. They kept going on about how the chicken is SOOOO good and the fries are SOOOO tasty. My wife and I talked about it afterward and couldn't figure out why they were so over the moon about s#!tty overpriced chicken. Now it makes sense; they like it because Limbaugh told them to like it.

Of course it does-when those groups' sole purpose is to spread misinformatiom about gays and lesbians to sway others against them and against allowing them to marry or have civil unions.

Gay and lesbian couples raising children also have Family Values.

What those groups mean is strong "Family Values"..... as long as the family are heterosexual.

I doubt you'd find many gay and lesbian parents tossing out teenagers for being straight...for example.
