WaPo Blogger Bizarre Suggestion: 'Infiltrate' Chick-fil-A

The Washington Post "On Faith" blogger, Sally Quinn, has come up with a suggestion so bizarre that I would not not blame you for casting aspersions upon the veracity of your humble correspondent until you read it for yourself.  Basically Quinn is recommending  that gays and lesbians "infiltrate" Chick-fil-A restaurants to the point where they become gay hangouts to such an extent that even gay weddings will be performed there. And if you think that recommendation is absurd beyond belief, you won't be alone. Her blog is filled with commenters whose reactions can best be described as face-in-palm. You can't blame them after reading this "gem" from Sally:

They are all having the same idea, like this comment posted on the National Same-Sex Kiss-In Chick-Fil-A day Facebook event page:------------------ "Why not take this a step further? I suggest that LGBTQ organizations around the country get together and make Chick-Fil-A a LGBTQ hang out. Go there for lunch. Go there at night after the drag show. Go there on Pride. Have your bachelor(ette) party there, Go there all the time. There is nothing Dan Cathy can do about it.He might lose all of his homophobic fundie christian customers, but hey, he'll gain a whole new base to cater to. :)" ----and they are already gearing up for the Kiss-In (sorry not trying to offend but this is the reality of what they are planning ---we may as well get used to what we'll see Friday)

GLBT’s = Giblets.

Holy cow that was just sitting there as obvious as all get out yet we all missed it. That is one perfect little linguistic tool that is spot on for ridiculing liberals. I would not be surprised to hear it on talk radio tomorrow.

Spilled drinks could happen to anyone...
and they do give free refills!

Um, I don’t think the person who actually though of this really knows what they were doing? Does she even believe in God? Because I can only hope that if gays do hang out at Chick Fil-A (0r work there) maybe, God will reach their hearts with Christ; and they can be “born again”?

Maybe God wants to do this to change them? I know that many restaurant owners pray over their staffs, and locality!

I had a some good Chick-fil-A coupons about 6 weeks ago. For a FREE sandwich. I always get the FREE sandwich, then buy another one plus the waffle fries. I ALWAYS have those waffle fries when I’m there.

[jakerobins]

So they think that simply by going to chick-fil-a and “hanging out” the good folks are simply going to “Turn Gay”?? I thought that is the sort of non-sense they usually make fun of people for...........

Coordinate a radical Moose Limb rally for anti-Christian protest on the same day!

They’ll get loud, will get kicked out then sue and it will be all over the media. What loons, liars and intolerant folks they are.

[elcid1970]

Great minds think alike!

I’ve been calling them “GiBLetS” for years, aka the GBLT people.

The Giblets may be out in force on Friday, at an hour when most straight folks are having dinner with their families, so less chance someone will dump a bucket of ice water over their sorry heads & cool them off.

OBTW, that disgusting pic above your post will result in quick arrest where I hail from, if it happens here.

They could start their own rival chain that supports their values,

***Food Lion was infiltrated by union sympathizers ***

The Tulsa company I worked for was infiltrated by a union man. His job was to get fired for talking union, then the union could file suit because he was fired.

He was so grossly incompetent he was fired for lazyness and incompetence. Union filed and lost.

If people are serious, they should offer to buy Mr. Cathy out.

[VeniVidiVici]

Imagine what she'd look like without those face lifts.

Okay; got it all covered. All the royalty proceeds go to FReep-A-Thons. LOLOL!

[Carriage Hill]

Just kidding. I swear I read that *term* in a Mike Adams column here, a few days ago, but I just searched and can't find it now.

G I B L E T S !

(Like "Wolverines!")

Rush was discussing this article at the top of his show today. At first he had trouble recalling the NAME of the author. I was SCREAMING the correct name at my car radio until he FINALLY got it right. Same basic thing happened almost exactly two years ago.

Oh, and it is quite surreal to hear El Rushbo say your name on national radio.

Rush Limbaugh said my name on his radio show?
