Bye-bye McDonald's
From the American Family Association (h/t to Thoughts of a Regular Guy);
Throwing out any pretense of being neutral in the culture war, McDonald's has taken up the rhetoric of gay activists, suggesting those who oppose same-sex marriage (SSM) are motivated by hate.
AFA has asked for a boycott of McDonald's restaurants because of the company’s promotion of the gay agenda. AFA asked McDonald’s to remain neutral in the culture war. McDonald’s refused.
In response to the boycott, McDonald's spokesman Bill Whitman suggested to the Washington Post that those who oppose SSM are motivated by hate, saying "...hatred has no place in our culture." McDonald's has decided to adopt the "hate" theme used by gay activist groups for years.
Whitman went on to say, "We stand by and support our people to live and work in a society free of discrimination and harassment." Mr. Whitman has intentionally avoided addressing the reason for the boycott. This boycott is not about hiring gays or how gay employees are treated. It is about McDonald's choosing to put the full weight of their corporation behind promoting their agenda.
McDonald's donated $20,000 to the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce in exchange for membership and a seat on the group’s board of directors. The NGLCC lobbies Congress in support of same-sex marriage.
McDonald's CEO Jim Skinner said the company will promote issues they approve. "Being a socially responsible organization is a fundamental part of who we are. We have an obligation to use our size and resources to make a difference in the world...and we do."
Hey Jimmy, I have an obligation to act on my beliefs and I will. Get your money to fund the gay agenda from some other schmuck. Heellllooooo Sonic.

heh - my oldest just started his 1st job at McD's...
Tell him to keep his mouth shut so the PC assholes don't nail him to the wall.
Keep his mouth shut, Hell no, Go to work at Burger King!
Good bye McDonalds for me and my family for ever!
Thanks Subvet didn't know about the donations.
Gimmee a break. You actually eat at McDonalds?? Wow. Hey, how about this idea. The church will no way no how perform SSM (exc. that one in NJ I think). Your lack of tolerance disturbes me. Some people are wired differently. The punishment for that is the inability to have children of their own. Isn't that enough? I'm pretty sure they are just looking for the same tax breaks etc normal couples get.
etnuke, your lack of tolerance towards my beliefs is equally disturbing. If I understand you properly, exercising the freedom to buy junk food elsewhere is unacceptable. Who made you lord & master of my life?
The tired defense that "some people are wired differently" doesn't fly. As an alcoholic I'm "wired differently", that doesn't let me off the hook for my unacceptable behaviors. Just because a genetic predisposition exists doesn't excuse our indulgence of it. That's what free will is all about.
And I've yet to find a practicing homosexual, male or female, who doesn't come from a wildly dysfunctional background. Just as active alcoholism is often a sign of a deeper problem, so is active homosexuality.
There's a reason they're called "queer".
Good grief! Those sodomists over at Paul's blog have found their way here.
Hey etnuke, I find your intolerance of morals intolerably intolerable. I'm wired to beat the piss out of liberals and anyone else who bothers me. But if I do I go to jail. If I were wired to ram ass instead of kicking it I'd get AIDS.
I defend fags right to say stupid shit, but they're passing laws to chill Bible preaching and the very Faith that built this country (protestant heresies notwithstanding). SNAP OUT OF IT! You've been rused by a clever marketing ploy to make sodomy "normal".
