“Chick-fil-A is Desoto County, soccer and baseball teams, Mike Huckabee, red state, Christian.”
That from a coworker who sees the Chick fil-A imbroglio as self-segregation via fast food with the same values fault line that separates the city of Memphis from the municipalities.
So, for this person, the August 1st Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day — aka the “buycott” spurred on by former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee in support of Chick-fil-A company president Dan Cathy’s anti-gay/pro-family stance — and the August 2nd vote go hand-in-hand in this culture war.
And then there’s the next day, August 3rd, declared Same Sex Kiss Day.
