Fuck you Rahm Emanuel

[grizzaholic]

There are a couple of Philly guys that opened up a shop in town..

Couldn't make it on the east coast.

Probably got sick of the muggings, smog, crime, assholes, people, and ODU fans.

Pussies couldn't handle it. It's the Real World over here.

[Grizalltheway]

I wouldn't want to.

You shouldn't try. It's for men.

Really? Sounds like it's for colored folk.

It's fast food chicken...from the east coast...it has a ceiling.

Yo, what's the best chicken joint 'round these parts? And does it compare to Double Front?

2) Dude from Chik Fil A is as big a douche as Rahm.

I don't see how you can say that. Because he is honest in his convictions? Because he is of the opinion that marriage should be between one man and one woman?

Because he leaves his restaurants closed on Sundays because his convictions lead him to do that?

This whole thing is an excellent illustration of the fact that progressives/liberals believe in free thought only as long as that thought coincides with progressive/liberal belief. As soon as thought deviates from progressive/liberal belief, it must be repressed.

Oh for goodness sake.

Of course he has every right to express his beliefs. Just like any free thinking person such as myself has every right to ridicule those beliefs.

I could give a frogs fat ass whether or not he chooses to have his restaurants open on Sundays. I do however take exception to his support of denying people their constitutional rights which his company has actively done.

I thought you were pro-constitution?

And what Constitutional Rights do you say he is in favor of denying? And I hope you're not going to say that being against homosexual marriage is in support of denying a Constitutional right.

Oops...you're right. I was thinking of all that liberty and equality bull crap in the Declaration. My bad.

So let me rephrase: I thought you were for liberty?

You can say the same about Conservative thought as well Johnny...
That's why black people were swinging from trees in Alabama 50 years ago because conservatives had sincere convictions about their personal beliefs

It would be nice if everybody had the same rights
and we could move on from this nonsense
You yourself think homosexuality is an abomination - yet it occurs in nature
Baby Jeezus and the Holy Santa made nature too right - Alrighty then, problem solved
can we move on now out of the dark ages

Remember he is the same guy that believes pedophilia = normal.

I don't agree at all with Chick-Fil-A's stance, but if we had one here, I would be there at least twice a week. They make a damn fine chicken sandwich. They keep showing Popeye's commercials here too, closet one I have seen is just outside of Portland. Their food look's delicious as well.

Mayors of these cities are free to make these statements, just as the CEO is free to make his.

That being said, Chick-fil-A has the right to open a restaurant any where that the zoning is appropriate (and any other similar operation would be allowed to open).

If Chick-fil=A does not reflect the area's values, it will quickly go out of business.

[UNI88]

One of the more liberal columnists in the Chicago Tribune summed this whole thing up pretty well ...

Alderman lays an egg in opposing Chick-fil-A

But I also believe in the freedom of expression -- in the right of Dan Cathy and other owners of Chick-fil-A to give voice to their opinions on social and political matters without fear of reprisal from the government.
...
Those who are cheering on these pols ought to imagine the jackboot on the other foot – reactionary public officials in some backwater town denying an entrepreneur the right to operate an ordinary business simply because he’s an open supporter of Obamacare, abortion rights or even marriage equality.

Such a hypothetical should make it easy to see how it plainly offends the spirit of the Constitution – and sets a horrible precedent – for public officials at any level to punish otherwise legal forms of speech with arbitrary exercises of government power.

Well said Jon.

And I don't think Chick-fil-A would last long there. That's an extremely diverse neighborhood just west of DePaul University.

Let's not argue that this kind of hypocritical nonsense is relegated to "one party" or "one Ideology"
AND: Yes Rahm Emanuel is an idiot

[AZGrizFan]

Yeah, you'd rather have some WCB hack make you a "Philly" sammich at Hoagieville.

Umm. No. There are a couple of Philly guys that opened up a shop in town..eaten there once and it wasn't too bad.

Thanks for making me hungry. I will be getting Gyros for lunch now.

[LeadBolt]

A good look at what was actually said and how it is being reported:

Americans need to understand what is going on in this debate. No one is being discriminated against at Chick-fil-a, despite false reports to the contrary. The President of the company, Dan Cathy, simply expressed his point of view on the issue of marriage—a point of view rooted in his Christian beliefs. And now at least two mayors of America’s two leading cities are saying that they will use their power to punish Chick-fil-a for those views. This is a moral outrage and a violation of the first Amendment to the Constitution. Every American—no matter what your view of gay marriage—should stand against this kind of tyranny.

If you live where you don't have Chick-Fil-A, here is an interesting video from Tim Hawkins:

Took about 60 bucks off of one of the owners at the Golden Rose poker table a few months back. Serves him right for serving that overpriced shit.

Good for you? I like the gyros on N. Reserve the best.


Oh, and AZ. I would ask Pols but Gyros don't get smoke rings, you do your share of traveling and how do the gyros in Montana compare to other places?

Thanks! It was a sweet, savory victory.
