Mike Huckabee is pleased as punch, of course: Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day succeeded "beyond anything I could have imagined." He's right! Minor traffic jams in front of the restaurants, lines looping and double-looping for drive-through or walk-up orders, competitors changing their own signs to get into the spirit of the thing!

PS: their opponents will counter-demonstrate tomorrow. Here is how one Christian man suggests that people answer that:

    All I know is that I've been to CFA twice in the last week since this story broke. They've only succeeded in INCREASING their business from me, and I'm sure there are many others who might have had their curiosity piqued in the chain by the story. All around, I'd say the publicity will turn out to be a positive for them.

    Hey, watch it, neighbor. You might as well say that I'm not with my first wife, either. Or rather, she's not with me.

    Because she's dead.

    I have follow-up. Relatives have phoned in, relatives who went out to Chick-fil-A for Appreciation Day and now swear by the food.

    The dust-up brought them; the product will keep them. Now *that*'s managing the moment.

    It the goal was convincing the most hateful, Conservative and ignorant people in America to eat a greasy artery clogging sandwich that will probably shave a year or more of their lives, then yes. Don't you guys think there could be a more sinister plot to encourage all of you to eat at a single distributor on a certain day. Keep a eye on the news and see. Why if I was wanting to rid the world of some of the worst kind of people I'd take advantage of some silly ploy to convince people to eat at a easily contaminated food outlet all because of some ignorant political ploy... Just saying....

    While I have little in common with Rev. Huckabee, I think he made a timely and important movement here. He gave the majority population of the nation a chance to tell the "gay movement" to take their sordid lifestyles and political agenda back to the closets from which they came as we don't really have to be intimidated by them or afraid to separate ourselves from their vile habits.

    Tolerance? It will never exist in this world so long as tyranny of the majority and injustice prevail. The Evil of Huckabee ultimately doesn't care about your petty prejudices or values. If chic-fil-A decides to engage with evil to commit a fraud against gay people, supporters will become evil themselves irregardless of whatever 'noble' cause they may take up in the process. In the name of Religion you denied someone their equal rigths? Wow, some religious fighter you bigots turned out to be.

    We have demonstrated to the racist/bigoted Liberals that their desire to trample the first amendment through their PC bull will not fly anymore.

    Just this afternoon, the kissy facers began arriving at the local CFA's to get an early start on their kiss-in. Many were made to leave because they were loitering. The militant gays will either have to support CFA and buy things to stay or they'll have to do their kiss fest across the street.

    That has made my day.

    Be prepared tomorrow. Chances are good the militant or some of their Liberal flunkies will try violent tactics. It's in their natures.

    When politically correctness and it followers is out of whack to the extent of where there is govenment interference to try and shut down a private business because the owner has a expresses his religious belief that marriage is between a man and a woman, the government has stepped way over the line. The chain has not barred anyone, though they do have the right to serve whomever they please, and should not have a good legimate business threatend by those who have opposing views. The mayors of the various cities better read the Constitution especially the 1st Amendment.

    Chick-fil-A has great food!

    (Liberals are sheeple for doing whatever the MSM tells them to but all of those who went to Chik-Fil-A yesterday en masse because Mike Huckabee told them to are free-thinking individuals. Oh, Irony.)

    Anyway, I was wondering why this became such a hot button issue the other day and thanks to Temlakos, it hit me. While we were fighting over chicken sandwiches and whether or not embracing gay marriage was tantamount to terrorism, our congress cleared way for the president, current and future, to bypass the senate for their appointments and give them more broad powers than they've had before. This is treacherous at worst and lazy at best, if we're just going to give all the power to the president than why even have a congress? And didn't the whole Trayvon thing take place when the NDAA was passed? Call me paranoid but I think this is all a distraction for something worse.

    But back to the issue at hand: My beliefs in God didn't end thousands of years ago and I don't trust men in robes who say they're the voice of the holy simply because they stand in a building in a cross on top of it. I can only go by my reasoning and the law of the land. Does allowing gay marriage impede your right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness? No. Does the separation of church and state...

No. Does the separation of church and state mean that the government can force your religion to conduct gay marriages? No. So with that said, how is supporting this consistent with American ideals of freedom and not looking to implement a Christian version of Sharia Law in the United States? Any logical responses are welcome; any graphics of babies crying or namecalling will be a waste of time.

    Boycotts...and buycotts are one the purest forms of free-market political protest . Taking a stand against gov./pols who threaten to punish a business because of the beliefs of the owners or ceo is a slow slide into fascism.
    I chose to stand with them in protest!

    You can use fancy words and make big paragraphs to sound smart but the fact remains that anytime someone disagrees with the progressive left, they are labeled bigots, hate speech and are attacked relentlessly. We had enough of their bullying tactics and came out in full force to show it. Pro gays are a minority. Not a majority. If you are too full of yourself to understand this purpose then that's your problem.

    You could see it that way...just like the folks who boycott .
    I went even though I haven't been to one of their outlets in over 3 years.
    I felt the need to make a statement for our freedom. There aren't many ways for ordinary folks like myself to make a splash....Aug . 1rst did that.
    I plan to go Friday also.
