Even Huckabee Can't Eat Enough to Keep 'em Going

http://blog.buzzflash.com/node/13640

New data indicates Chick-fil-A's image with consumers has dropped dramatically since the company's president proudly embraced the organization's anti-LGBT donations. The new numbers come as former Governor Mike Huckabee and the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) attempt to make today a national "Eat at Chick-fil-A" day.

According to YouGov's BrandIndex, Chick-fil-A's brand perception among consumers has dropped by more than 20 points since Dan Cathy replied "guilty as charged" when asked about Chick-fil-A's donations to groups that work to demonize and harm LGBT people. The drop is noticeable across the country - even in the South, a stronghold for the fast food chain...

Ignore the reality of crowded restaurants across the country.

1. Now you know why repugs want their donors kept secret.

'brand perception' is everything to these people.

5. What's a brand perception

And how does it relate to changes in the amount of people eating there?

It's inversely proportional apparently.

6. Hard to tell from driving by CFA today...

Drive thru line was backed up around the building and back on to the street. The line for the counter was also hanging out the door.

7. Drove by CFA a few minutes ago

There is a line of cars 3/4 mile long to get in the drivethru.
People are circled completely around the building waiting to get in to eat.
There were 12-15 protestors out front.

8. Seen several posts on FB today

of people posting photos of crowded Chick-fil-A parking lots and police having to direct traffic because of so many people going there in support of hate.

Of course, I'm in Alabama where people use their religion as an excuse to hate all the time. If anything this controversy is helping them profit even more here in the south.

I so want to comment: "Thank you for your order. Would you like a side of hate with that?"

Again a swing and a MISS for anything the DUmmies try to accomplish.  I'm sure the CFA's will be enjoying their day when they go over the daily receipts.

I posted another topic about this but I want this in here.....Dummies are agreeing with what I am posting also.  MAJOR BACKFIRE! :loser:

Today is CFA day and I left at 10:30am and sat in traffic forever with my boss thinking "Gee this must be one serious wreck". Turns out and I took photos of it the huge backup was because CFA was packed and people were in line to turn into it. Over a block long and the parking lot overflowed into a grass lot next to it. There were no protesters that I saw, only patrons. I put the pics on my fb page because I was damn proud of that traffic jam. We finally got through the jam at 11:11am. It should have taken less than 2 minutes to drive that stretch.

That is support!!!!

This with a Gay Mafia coerced media black out. There will be nothing of this on any major newscast nor pravda papers. However, i will bet anyone that when the gay mafia shows up with 8 fagots at one CFA somewhere will be the opening story and on the front page above the fold in all of the pravdas.  PMSNBC will run the massive 8 fagot protest story non-stop all day and the entire weekend.

Yeah, the only station that will broadcast it is Fox News. The rest will remain silent. But, hey! They MSM were quick to report what the CEO said. That should tell you whose side they are one.

Chick-Fil-a WTF is going on.

They have caused traffic jams all over KC. I was driving around for busines today and twice got stuck in traffic for over thirty minutes due to extreme traffic caused by their crap. The authorites need to move this traffic on as its wrong to create a nuisance and safety issue for drivers.

They seemed to have a different opinion about causing traffic problems when it was Occupy Whatever blocking the roads.

3. You realize Obama's gay marriage policy and Chick Fil a owner's were the same?

EXACTLY the same - until a few months ago.
Where was this slobber-dripping anger towards Obama?

So he lied about that?  Kind of like he lies about everything else?

Wait.  The op says that chick-fil-a donates to groups that harm gay people.  When did chick-fil-a donate to groups that lied by saying that you couldn't choose who you have sex with or that cover up higher incidences of STDs among homosexuals?

My local Chick-Fil-A at about 12:00. I was there around 10:30 hoping to beat the crowds. Was able to get through the drive-thru in about 15 minutes. About an hour later, one of our local talk radio hosts posted this picture. Glad I went earlier!

YouGov BrandIndex measurement scores range from 100 to -100 and are compiled by subtracting negative feedback from positive. A zero score means equal positive and negative feedback.

Every working day, YouGov interviews thousands of people from its panel of 2.5 million people worldwide online, collecting BrandIndex data that is nationally representative of adults in each country.

Basically it's an online survey/poll and we know how reliable those can be.

MARTINSBURG - Police and fire crews closed down the Chick-fil-A on Foxcroft Avenue in Martinsburg for nearly three hours following a bomb threat that was called in just before 1 p.m. today.

The caller mentioned that a "device" had been placed within the restaurant. The building was evacuated, but was deemed safe at about 3:45 p.m. after no bomb or any other type of device was discovered.
