Question:Will The "Chik-Fil-A Madness" Continue For Weeks To Come?

Posted on 08/01/2012 7:26:55 PM PDT by Reality_News

Why end the celebration on Wednesday? Lets just keep it going right thru the election. Think of the long Chick-Fil-A Lines as a practice run for when us patriots prepare for "The War On Obama" on November 6th. How we can win this election will be very simple! Conservatives become "The Red Army" and we will storm our precincts in record numbers! Just like what happened today. THE REDCOATS ARE COMING !!!

Where was the restaurant?

Orland Park, IL. Orland Park is about 20'ish miles Southwest of Chicago.

Take that, Rahm! As I was told by numerous people, the line has been like that all day.

When this all calms down, they will be put out of business.

Never happen, the South alone will keep them in business just like we have for years. Chick-fli-a is a staple in the South no one ever says no I don't want a chick-fli-a, we have been eating there form the beginning at The Dwarf Grill, in Hapeville, Georgia.

What no one tells is that this was across the street from the Ford Plant it was working men food and took off from there. We have chick-fli-a about once a week. Good food or something is wrong with YOU!

1) What did you order?

Actually, I went in for one sandwich, but the wait was so long, I got two. Plus an iced tea. The best tea in fast food.

2) How much was it?

$8.00 or so. I just let them swipe my card.

3) How was it?

Good as usual. I generally go there once or twice a month.

4) What’s your fav fast-food place?

I'm a Wendy's baconator fan. Five Guys when I'm feeling rich.

It looks like the libs arent going to let it go. Now they are spreading a rumor about CFA funding some Ugandan gay hate bill.

Crowd outside Chick-fil-A in Corpus Christi, Texas.

The local news said all locations of Chick-fil-a estimated that they did double the business today!

You did a good think, Rev Huck!

Well, I tell ya, pardner: “Life is hard, but it’s harder when you’re stupid.” — John Wayne

The queers and MSM picked this fight and it will stay a “hot” fight for as long as they want to play the “gay intolerance” card. The more you push it, the worse it’s going to be for all these hustlers and their Donkey (and RINO) sympathizers.

>> Wow! That’s one of the most impressive pictures I’ve seen. Where was the restaurant? I bet the dems are about apoplectic they decided to make Gay marriage an election platform. I’d love to be a fly on the wall in the Oval office. <<

It's the Orland Park, IL location. I ate there last week. Geographically, the Orland Park Chick-Fil-A might be the one closest to Obama's home turf, as it's the only Chick-Fil-A in southern Cook County where Obama hails from. (there's also a Chick-Fil-A within Chicago city limits, but it's in the northern loop downtown, not the south side)

What the media isn’t saying is that this national action yesterday portends very bad news for Obama and dems in November. We the People are awake and motivated to beat back the lies and oppression of the liberals.

I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen one. I only knew they existed from their “eat more chicken” commercials and the fact they have a college bowl game named after them.

Their waffle fries and milkshakes look gooooood, I look forward to trying them.

Orland Park is in the very South West corner of Cook County. Obama's neighborhood is just south of Downtown Chicago.

Geographically speaking, the two are quite a distance apart. The only thing they have in common is being in the same county.

I live 5 minutes from the Orland Park Chik fil A, and I work a stones throw from Obama's house, so I know of what I speak.

Equating Orland Park with the neighborhood Obama lives in, is quite insulting, just FYI.

I didn't say they were in "the same neighborhood" (and certainly the Orland community is nothing like Kenwood or Hyde Park), I said they were in the same county. Chick-Fil-A's are hard to come by, so the Orland Park location is the ONLY one in southern Cook County. (the other two are in northern Cook County) I'm well aware it's a 40 minute drive from "Obama's neighborhood" to the Orland Chick-Fil-A. It's still closer to Obama's house than the other suburban location in Schumaburg. Personally, I think it's GREAT that there was huge turnout at ALL Chick-Fil-A's in Crook County (including the Chicago location), it's a slap at Rahm Emanuel and the left. Those of us in southwest Cook County ALL who want to support Chick-Fil-A use the Orland Park location, whether we lived nearby or not (it takes me about 35 mins. to get to the Orland restaurant, I'm near Chicago city limits) The Burlington, Mass. Chick-Fil-A was likewise packed, and it's geographically the closest one to Boston (although again, it's probably a half hour drive). If the media reports that the "local" Chick-Fil-A's in the Boston and Chicago areas were packed, it embarrasses Obama far more than Mark Kirk does.

>> I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen one. I only knew they existed from their “eat more chicken” commercials and the fact they have a college bowl game named after them. Their waffle fries and milkshakes look gooooood, I look forward to trying them. <<

For the record, here's the address of all three Chick-Fil-A's in Cook County. Impy's best bet is probably the northern loop location at the Water Tower Place:

Loyola Water Tower In-Line
30 E. Chicago Ave.
Chicago, IL 60611

Southwest Cook County
15605 S. La Grange Rd.
Orland Park, IL 60462

Northwest Cook County
935 E. Golf Rd
Schaumburg, IL 60173

I ate the Orland location on July 24th, and got my dinner last night from the Lombard location near my brother's office (he was nice enough to pick it up for me so I didn't have to waste gas driving to Chick-Fil-A and back over an hour) Here's a photo from last week, lol:

One of the locations I went by and couldn't get into yesterday was slammed again today. No, the momentum is not over yet.

MAYOR RAHM COUNSELS CHICK- FIL-A "It's easy to do business in Chicago when you know 'the rules,' " said Chicago Mayor Rahm. Chick-Fil-A can open as long as it adopts 'Chicago Values.' "

(1) weekly cash pay off to the alderman;

(2) hire six of the alderman's friends who work only random days of the month,

(3) BIG AL from the Mayor's office will pick up all checks at CFA's back door,

(4) Chick Fil A staff needs to shoot 10-12 customers per month,

(5) Any CFA customers actually killed must be registered to vote as Democrats,

(6) $100,00 campaign contribution to Obama,

(7) free food to Jesse Jackson, Jr. "convalescing" b/c he screwed up buying Obama's Senate seat,

DON'T JUST STAND THERE EATING A
LUSCIOUS DELUXE CHICK-Fil-A SANDWICH.
DO SOMETHING.

OUR NEXT MOVE: We demand Chick-Fil- A stores be opened in those areas that vocally oppose them.

AND in our own locations, we call local govt to demand Chick-Fil-A stores be opened as a sign that we affirm free speech---(AND love their sandwiches).

Might also suggest that the lack of Chick-Fil-A stores might even be construed as a denial of our consitutional rights (/snick).

I didn’t get to go to a CFA until Monday. The lines were still long both inside and at the car window. It was worth the wait. :)
