Stop the hate campaign against law-abiding American businesses
Michelle Malkin ^ | 2/2/2011 | Michelle Malkin

*Snip* So, what’s the problem? Well, Chick-Fil-A is run by devout Christians who believe in strong marriages, devoted families, and the highest standards of character for their workers. The restaurant chain’s official corporate mission is to “glorify God” and “enrich the lives of everyone we touch.” The company’s community service initiatives, funded through its WinShape Foundation, support foster care, scholarship, summer camp, and marriage enrichment programs. On Sunday, all Chick-Fil-A stores close so workers can spend the day at worship and rest. *snip*

Over the past month, several progressive activist blogs have waged an ugly war against Chick-Fil-A. The company’s alleged atrocity: One of its independent outlets in Pennsylvania donated some sandwiches and brownies to a marriage seminar run by the Pennsylvania Family Institute, which happens to oppose same-sex marriage.

In the name of tolerance, the anti-Chick-Fil-A hawks sneered at the company’s main product as “Jesus Chicken,” derided its no-Sunday work policy, and attacked its operators as “anti-gay.”

The best way to stop this is to patronize Chick-Fil-A more.

The old tolerance tactic, Jesus said love the sinner and hate the sin. Liberals want you to love the sin too.

Pray for Egypt

That appears to be happening, at least in this (southern VA) area. Chik-Fil-As seem to be packed all the time. The homoerotic community should by now be finding out boycotts don't work. One group of people call for a boycott, then opposing groups give additional business.

This may work out to be a "Thank You Jesse Jackson" moment (you Chicago folks knowwhatimean?).

I remember using the BuyBlue.com website for that purpose. It would list all the top donors to conservative causes and I'd go out of my way to patronize them more often.

Just last night I was watching TV, and I think it was some family channel posted a disclaimer on the screen, words to the effect: This following program does not reflect the views of this station.

Well, I had to wait to see what degenerate show was coming on.

It turned out to be The 700 Club.

The article is a great read, my excerpt does not do it justice. It starts with this quote:

My column today spotlights the left-wing/New York Times alliance against Chick-Fil-A. Anti-corporate/anti-Christian blogs + MSM advocacy journalism = job-sabotaging smear machine.

Several of the talk radio hosts here in Nashville have been encouraging listeners to patronize Chick-Fil-A more.

A grilled chicken sandwich sounds pretty good about now.

Michelle Malkin is a conservative blogger who is intelligent, writes well and she well highlights the misdeeds of the left. I try to read her blog on a regular basis. She represents the young, female conservatives that we need to move our USA back to the God-loving constitutional republic in the years to come. Paul Ryan is my hero on the male half of young conservatives.

Malkin is one of the tried and true conservative writers, she rarely disappoints.

Something is not quite right here. I am in complete agreement with you.

I've had in depth discussions about this with knowledgeable people. I've come to the conclusion it's because the sin is who these people have become. They have filled themselves with it, and can not separate it from who they are.

Legal Insurrection is a great conservative blog source as well, you’d agree with most of his posts, try this rant from Rush Limbaugh he links to (which you may not agree with):http://legalinsurrection.blogspot.com/2011/01/it-sounds-so-much-better-read-out-loud.html

I met Truett Cathy a few years back and was impressed enough with his business to make Chick-fil-A a regular fast foods place for me. His business started small in Atlanta shortly after WWII, moved into malls and became a success. Cathy talked to us at a Christian college in Atlanta.

I believe, for the most part, the libbers, love the sin and hate Him (Jesus) who died for our sins!
