Adam Smith's bully party at chick fil a

[Alan]

I wouldn't worry, Alan. I can't recall the last time a rich white guy was targeted by one of us loony lefties. (Unless you count Bill Gates and a cream pie.) At any rate, it doesn't happen often.

I spent nearly 30 years providing corporate security/executive protection services for a rich white guy and the threats were constant from always loony, consistently lefties. You just don't hear about it much because rich white guys keep those matters close to their rich white guy vests.

I feel bad for all the gay people who have to see how excited people are to turn out to oppose them so that we can fight americas brain-dead moronic kulture war via of all things fast food (ie toxic sludge of food like substances on a platter).

Isn't that the truth!

I mean, with all the serious problems we could be talking about, somehow the business practices of a fast-food chicken shack floated to the top of the mire?

Bread and circuses...

From what I can gather, anyone willing to go public (including such provocateurs as cookbook authors) get threats and hate mail, but few are assassinated, thank goodness.

I have to admit I'm amused by Cathy's wrapping himself in Leviticus and then serving breakfast items featuring pork.

And, in related news, Portland restaurant Hamburger Mary's is currently offering a "hate-free chicken sandwich" and donating proceeds to the Pride Foundation--in case anyone is in the neighborhood.

Not only that, but Hamburger Mary's sources relatively-humanely-raised meat, something I suspect is less hateful in The Supreme Being's eyes than Chik-Fil-A's sources. Eat there.

I agree. I fear for the Cathy family.

and gays, many whom are only trying to provide for their families, allow the ones they love to have the benefits that same sex marraiges do and live good productive lives for the good of society.

It was interesting living in a same sex marraige state. It was barely a blip after the initial flurry on anyone's radar, except if you happen to be gay and now have the benefits of marraige added to your union.

yes it is sad and insulting. I worked for years with a nurse who spoke about her Fiance and it wasn't until I saw the wedding pics I realized it was a same sex marraige. She was a good person and good nurse before then and continued to be so. her sexual preferences meant nothing to what she was inside.

I remember the "freedom fries" episode - I was surprised just how many people out there that were primed and ready to jump all over the French.

the more I thought about this the funnier (or sadder) I thought it was. You have to make such a supreme effort nowdays to live a thoughful, kind, humane life, not buy items made with slave labor, eat humanely raised food and not support companies that pollute the streams and grounds of the world. If there is a god I can imagine he is rolling his eyes right now.

As I'm in the middle of a book about the French, I have to say, I had forgotten how much fun they are to hate on. So superior. So distaining of the rest of us. Like the most popular beautiful (and bitchy) girl in the class, I want to be her and I hate her until I am her.
