54 days and counting...supporting Chick-fil-A
Today's message from "the trail" is a fairly simple one. I support Chick-fil-A. I've supported Chick-fil-A since 1985, and I will continue to support Chick-fil-A.
The message in the current "Chick-fil-A debate" is equally clear: Chick-fil-A does not stand for hate- never has. Folks aren't coerced into eating at Chick-fil-A- never will be. If you don't feel you can eat at Chick-fil-A because Dan Cathy's words are not in keeping with your beliefs, so be it. Stand by your beliefs as I'll stand by mine.
A note as to how my words here might affect my current campaign for a spot on ORRA (Orlando Regional Realtor Association)'s Board of Directors for 2013: This is but one example of how I stand up for what I believe in. I'm honest, I'm fair and I'm genuine. I'll never do myself or others the disservice of compromising my values in a veiled attempt to placate those who believe otherwise. I'll also respect and fight for others' rights to hold their opinions, knowing their opinions and beliefs- though different- are just as valuable as my own.
If my stance here in support of Chick-fil-A or the Cathy family costs me any votes when that time arrives, it is well. I would rather lose votes honestly than gain them dishonestly.
May God bless you this day, and may God continue to bless Chick-fil-A, Truett Cathy, Dan Cathy and the rest of the Cathy family.
