The Mitten? Not so much. He’s more of a Twinkie: all form, no substance, conning us into thinking it’s food.

Sort of. You asked me if I had any decency because I insulted saltine crackers by comparing them to Mittens. :-P

But when we do they start whining that they’re being oppressed, that they’re the victims of evil people, that we’re trying to shut them up, that they have no religious freedom, blah blah blah. They’re like three year old kids: they have no good argument for their actions so they whine and cry and throw a tantrum.

Did I say welcome back yet? :)

Not to mention being the exact opposite of being Christlike. In America, they have every right to say these bigoted things and be hypocritical, though.

You can bet they weren’t there to support free speech or the first amendment.

And while Dan Cathy and his family have an absolute right to say what they want, the core issue is that they are using Chicken money from all those customers to send millions to stridently anti-gay organizations to push their Christian bigotry. Yes, they can do what they want with their money, but such blatant hypocrisy as blithering about Christian love and understanding while supporting virulent bigotry calls for a response.

That’s a lousy reason for all those chickens to die.

Worth had quite a support rally for Chick-Fil-A on Wednesday. Lines wrapped around shopping areas where the stores were located. The company made record profits that day, here at least.
