Dan Cathy decided to make a PUBLIC statement to Mike Huckabee that, at the least, muddied the progress we had made with Chick-fil-A and, at the worst, contradicted the documents and promises Chick-fil-A made to me and the community earlier this month. Since Mr.Cathy made a PUBLIC statement, I am PUBLICLY asking him to confirm and support what I was told and shown by his company representatives.
1. For the FIRST TIME in the company’s history the company wrote and distributed a document to all of its employees titled, “Chick-fil-A: Who We Are” that guarantees that the company and its employees will “treat every person with honor, dignity and respect- regardless of their beliefs, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender.”
2. I am asking him to PUBLICLY confirm and support a letter that was voluntarily given to me by his company executives earlier this year that states the future behavior of Chick-fil-A’s not for profit arm, The WinShape Foundation. The letter states that, “The WinShape Foundation is now taking a much closer look at the organizations it considers helping, and in that process will remain true to its stated philosophy of not supporting organizations with political agendas.” We were told that these organizations included groups that politically work against the rights of gay and lesbian people.
3. I am also asking him to PUBLICLY confirm and support what Chick-fil-A executives voluntarily told and confirmed to me earlier this month— that Chick-fil-A, and its not for profit arm WinShape, in 2012 has not and will not donate to entities with political agendas, including organizations that politically work against the rights of gay and lesbian people.
Mr Cathy continues to not confirm to the press what his company executives have told and showed me. This is disturbing. Since Mr. Cathy wants to confuse people, he needs to publicly confirm the three components described above, which allowed us to move forward. I am simply asking Mr. Cathy to confirm statements and documents that HIS company exectuives provided to me. It is pretty simple, Mr. Cathy. Do you acknowledge and support the policies that your exectuives outlined to me in writing or do you not? Yes or no? If not, Chick Fil A is a business that practices irresponsible, and potentially illegal, business standards.
Perhaps Mr. Cathy felt that he could make these public statements to Mike Huckabee because I had provided a letter of support for his restaurant to the City of Chicago earlier this week. I provided this letter based on the progress we had made with Chick-fil-A. I still need to introduce legislation to make the Chick-fil-A in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago a reality. I will wait to see what Mr. Cathy’s next PUBLIC statement is, and reflect on that statement before moving forward with appropriate legislation.
So, you are demanding they confirm your lies. Got it.
It’s called a Free Society, Moreno. Your constituents must be real idiots to be “represented” by a Moron-o like you.
Idiot! If he gave you a letter, YOU SHOW IT!
sick of this crap attacking CFA.
The homostapo lost, their kiss in was pathetic, their starbucks was a joke and now they are still doing this crap.
The company has to follow federal law regarding hiring and workplace non-discrimination.
What a CEO or owner does on his own time with his own dime is none of their business.
Libs sure have an odd view of free speech.
What "rights" do gay and lesbian people have that others do not... and vice versa?
Definitely a threat.
WinShape, the Cathy's foundation to help children and marriages is not a political organization. They support groups that teach/counsel/assist marriages and families.
Focus on the Family, for example, works with Marriage and Family, and they are not a political organization. Focus on the Family does, however, have traditional views on Marriage and Family that they are not ashamed to broadcast.
The are, however, not supposed to endorse candidates, etc., which means they are not a political organization.
For the FIRST TIME in the company’s history the company wrote and distributed a document to all of its employees titled, “Chick-fil-A: Who We Are” that guarantees that the company and its employees will “treat every person with honor, dignity and respect- regardless of their beliefs, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender.”
They are a Christian business, the company and its employees do not need a document to TELL THEM to “treat every person with honor, dignity and respect- regardless of their beliefs, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender.”
Besides, they needed to have similar documents on file for years to meet all of the government's oversight and for lawsuit protection.
Ya can’t strongarm someone when you have weak wrist.
NOt to mention something in writting with a signiture.
Hey Moreno...I hope Chik fil a tells you to pound sand. They don’t need your permission to sell sandwhiches.
They can by-pass your parochial little burg. Maybe your your fag lobby can come up with their own eatery...Rooster Lickin or some such.
Enough of your stupid banty posturing.
There is no shame with these people.
CFA’s PR people put out a note early on that they’d “leave the political etc to the politicians....”
So This Moron twists that to get blood.
1) They will review giving to political groups.
-—TWISTED: They will not give to political groups.
2) They will not give to political groups.
-—TWISTED: Marriage is a political issue now.
3) Marriage is a political issue now.
-—TWISTED: CFA will not give to pro-marriage groups.
And if CFA tries to set the record straight, then they’re either liars (libs win) or their base drops them (libs win).
Tails they win, heads we lose.
If Moron-O had a letter that supported his position, he would show it.
After I cast my vote against the Islamic Tyrant in Chief, I am going to meet with the good people at Chick-Fil-A and celebrate with a delicious sandwich. I hope 70 million others do too.
This just makes me hungry for a chicken sandwich.
Notice the wording as well - the “rights of gay and lesbian people.”
They already HAVE these rights that somehow have been taken from them. Fact is, they or anyone else has never had the right to marry anyone of any age or gender or familial relationship despite current marital status.
The “rights” talk is to end all debate, as is the annoying “civil rights” branding. “It’s a civil rights issue” = all debate is over.
Somewhere along the line, the little Nazi came to believe that he can scuttle businesses that don't think/speak/act as he would like them to. He needs to be disabused of that notion.
If Cathy was smart, he'd hire some shark lawyer to take a a GIANT s*** on this guy. Then dump a million dollars on this alderman's opponant the next time he runs for office.
I saw all the evidence I needed when that drive through window lady handled that Adam Smith guy with aplomb.
I said this last week - I’ll say it this week - and probably in the weeks to come:
The gay mafia and its butt-buddies in the media will lie and distort the truth every time. And if Mr. Cathy and Chick-fil-A don’t IMMEDIATELY deny the lies?
Then it must be true. (Look at the CFA threads last week. It was disgusting how many FReepers swallowed these lies and hated on CFA)
So what happens? CFA - in due course - PROVES the queers are wrong. And that settles everything right? (Insert hugh sarc tag here).
Look; the homo nazi’s will not let up. They are relentless in smearing CFA and anyone else who dares to speak the truth to their faggotry. It’s no coincidence this is happening in Obammie-Town. A liberal s-hole known for Chicago thuggery.
What’s next? Word will soon leak out that Dan Cathy has had sex with _______________ (you fill in the blank)
Lies. It’s what these pervs do.
