Dems pledge to ban Chick-fil-A.
Rahm Emanuel goes after Chick-fil-A.
Billy Graham Throws Support Behind Chick-fil-A.
Stand with Chick-fil-A on August 1 in Support of Traditional Marriage (The following message from Franklin Graham of Samaritan’s Purse.)
DEAR FRIEND,
Just a few days ago, Dan Cathy, President of Chick-fil-A, affirmed his stance on the sanctity of traditional marriage. The restaurant chain has been, and continues to be, under a concerted attack from same-sex marriage advocates.
I applaud the courage of Cathy to take a bold stand for the biblical definition of marriage between a man and woman in a culture that has grown openly hostile to the Christian faith and its followers.
Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee has called for a National Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day on Wednesday, August 1, to demonstrate support for the company. I would like to join with him, and ask that, if you live near one of their restaurants please drop by and let them know how much you appreciate them and their stand.
I have known Dan and his father, Mr. Truett Cathy, for many years, and I respect how their company was founded upon and operates by Christian values.
In the words of the bold, biblical prophet Daniel who refused to bow to the culture of his day: “The people who know their God will display strength and take action” (Daniel 11:32, NASB).
Thank you and God bless you.
Sincerely,
Franklin Graham

Postscript: I (Lorraine) am “voting with my feet.” I’ll visit a Chick-fil-A, on Wednesday, about fifteen miles from the Christian organization (JAARS) where I live and volunteer. Basically, I follow a vegan diet but will make an exception and purchase an item with chicken.
I live where there are no Chick-fil-As, so please represent me also. I would be at one so fast on August 1st that it would sound, and look, like the the Roadrunner getting away from Wiley Coyote.
Chick-Fil-A is a good, wholesome restaurant run by a good, wholesome family. For the personal beliefs of the owners to get turned into a national public debate is ridiculous. The attitude of witch hunting going on here is crazy. I haven’t noticed our fair media mentioning any of the good they do. I just find it a sad situation.
