Moreno’s bit of Orwellian doublespeak allowed him to save face for a day or two, for having to back down regarding the opening of a Chick-fil-A restaurant in his ward. Numerous individuals and organizations stepped forward to confirm that Dan Cathy and company had not changed a thing.
The company itself issued a press release yesterday stating that its corporate giving practices were being mischaracterized, now Dan Cathy himself, via the Baptist Press, issues another statement flatly contradicting and denying such claims, that their corporate giving policies had changed.
I myself wrote on FR that they had been under assault by progressives for decades due to their overtly Christian business philosophy, hadn’t caved yet and were not going to change course over this. Numerous others have written similarly here, from across the spectrum of Christianity.
What more do you want? Are you seeking a sign or something?
Did the company's foundation open its books to the alderman and thereby prove it had changed its policy, as he claims? Did the company share that same information with the head of Campus Pride, as he claims? If not, then why are both these individuals getting away with making a truly inflammatory charge?
