   Seriously, the reaction of the Left and of Liberal Fascists such as Mayors Rahm Emanuel, Tom Menino, and Ed Lee has been beyond all reason. Don’t like the owner’s personal opinion? Don’t shop at his store. Tell your friends. But don’t invoke the power of the State to destroy his business, his employee’s jobs, and the businesses of his franchisees, who may not even share his opinion. If guys like Dan Cathy get punished for a private opinion, if they don’t have freedom of conscience, none of us do.

   And the proper way to deal with the reactionary Left is what we saw yesterday and in the above video: support and mockery. Show your support by buying some of the attacked person’s products and make fun of the Left. They can’t handle being mocked, and their reactions are amusing.

   Chick-fil-A Has ‘Record-Setting’ Sales on Appreciation Day ( video)

   Chick-fil-A posted “record-setting” sales on Wednesday as thousands of people swarmed the chicken chain for Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day after the chain’s chief made anti-gay comments.

   “While we don’t release exact sales numbers, we can confirm reports that it was a record-setting day,” Steve Robinson, Chick-fil-A’s executive vice president of marketing, said in a statement.

   Chick-fil-A not alone in touting religion alongside products

   Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy is not the only business tycoon who refuses to hide his faith under a bushel — top executives from some of America’s biggest companies are born-again Christians who talk about their beliefs more often than their balance sheets.

   Major corporations like Tyson Foods, Interstate Batteries and Hobby Lobby were either founded or are now led by outspoken and deeply religious bosses. While some of the companies distinguish between their corporate identities and their leaders’ faith, others embrace it.

   —Norm Miller, chairman of Interstate Batteries, discusses his faith and salvation at length on the company’s website, even inviting people to write him for advice on prayer;

   Cardinal wades into fray about Chick-fil-A

   Chicago Cardinal Francis George has stepped in the ring on Chick-fil-A’s gay marriage controversy in a blog post, criticizing Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s statement that the fast food chain’s values “are not Chicago values.”

   “Recent comments by those who administer our city seem to assume that the city government can decide for everyone what are the ‘values’ that must be held by citizens of Chicago,” George wrote on the Archdiocese of Chicago’s blog Sunday. “I was born and raised here, and my understanding of being a Chicagoan never included submitting my value system to the government for approval. Must those whose personal values do not conform to those of the government of the day move from the city?”

     I suppose that Emanuel likes the title as Murder Capital of the US, or the Most Corrupt City. How hard it must be to choose!

   Planned Parenthood Staffers Refuse Free Chick-Fil-A Sandwiches

   Conservatives and others who value free speech and freedom of religious views are patronizing Chick-Fil-A restaurants nationwide to express their support for the chain. Today’s nationwide eat-in responds to liberal protests and boycotts from those that opposed the views the Christian business has taken.

   Alison Howard, communications director for the pro-life group Concerned Women for America, attempted to find some common ground with staffers of the Planned Parenthood abortion business today via some delicious sandwiches. It didn’t work out.

   “I actually just tried to hand out a couple of sandwiches to Planned parenthood ladies,” she tells LifeNews.

   The Civil Rights Agenda files complaints against Chick-fil-A

   The Civil Rights Agenda, a local LGBT rights advocacy group, filed multiple complaints with the Illinois Department of Human Rights Thursday, alleging that the Atlanta-based Chick-fil-A restaurant chain’s “intolerant corporate culture” violates Illinois law and a provision in the state’s Human Rights Act.

   “In our current high speed media and social media environment, Chick-fil-A has announced and caused to be published, to hundreds of millions of people, that LGBT people are unacceptable and objectionable,” said Jacob Meister, Governing Board President of TCRA and the attorney who filed the complaint. “They have made it clear the lives of LGBT individuals are unacceptable to them and that same-gender families are unwelcome at Chick-fil-A.”

   Rush Limbaugh: ‘Chick-fil-A Revolution’ a forecast of election in November

   Rush Limbaugh posted pictures of himself eating Chick-fil-A on his Facebook page this morning, joining the multitudes of people supporting the fast food restaurant yesterday.

   Limbaugh spoke about the event during his program yesterday, which he explained, was also the EIB Networks 24th anniversary.

   “So on August 1st, the Chick-fil-A revolution supporting the right to voice your religious beliefs and August 1st also the beginning of Obamacare mandating that religious institutions violate their religious beliefs by providing birth control and drugs that facilitate abortion against their religious beliefs,” Limbaugh said. “August 1st, what a profound day in history.”
