House Democrats hosted a “Thanksgiving-type meal” for their first caucus meeting, and reportedly banned “ideological food” such as Chick-fil-A.
Rachael Bade, a congressional reporter with Politico and a CNN analyst, revealed what was strictly verboten in the meeting room where the majority typically meets.
It’s difficult to ascertain from her message as to whether or not it was the Democrat lawmakers who shunned the Chick-fil-A/ideological food menu, or if it was an observation from Bade who then labeled it as such.
Either way, it’s absurd to think that chicken now represents an ideology either to the House Democrats or a member of the liberal media, or both.

Democrats want to politicize every aspect of life, including food
This isn’t the first time liberals have described a place that produces chicken nuggets as ‘ideological.’
In 2012, the Huffington Post ran an article about how the chicken fast-food chain had become an “ideological battlefield,” over their supposed “anti-gay policies.”
They aren’t anti-gay, of course, it’s just that liberals view anybody with religious beliefs, who support the institution of marriage in a traditional sense, and who give their workers Sunday off as a day to observe their religion, as being ‘anti-gay.’
Even ABC News condemned Chick-fil-A as ideological and claimed the company had “funded organizations with radically anti-gay messages.”
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio once tried to organize a boycott of the restaurant in his own city. Talk about ideological.
“I’m certainly not going to patronize them and I wouldn’t urge any other New Yorkers to patronize them,” he announced.
Liberals shunning Chick-Fil-A never works
We’re not sure why the left insists on demonizing Chick-fil-A, as doing so only drives more customers through their doors. Customers who believe food is not ‘ideological,’ it’s just damn tasty. People who believe a company has the right to be pro-religion and still operate a business.
Case in point – De Blasio’s boycott backfired in a major way, as New Yorkers responded by coming out in droves to support the company, lines wrapping around the block.

This year, American Customer Satisfaction Index’s annual study named Chick-fil-A the number one fast-food restaurant in America for the third year in a row.
Market Force’s annual customer survey of the nation’s top quick-service restaurants placed Chick-fil-A squarely at the top in the category of “best chicken in America.”
They placed second overall with a 73 percent customer loyalty.
By the way, here’s a list of the Christian things Chick-fil-A has done that apparently has led to liberals viewing them as ‘ideological’:
- Donated meals to a local high school.
- Opened on a Sunday to help stranded travelers.
- Helped feed and care for a freezing homeless man.
- Supported local law enforcement.
- Fed tornado victims and first responders.
- They even were a refuge for a pregnant Trump supporter quite recently.
Trust us, that is a short list for this noble business.

So, what Democrats are in effect saying is that if the CEO or Organizational Body of a Corporation donates money to Pro-Life organizations or Conservative PACS or campaigns,, that they have no right to EXIST or to OPERATE here in USA and that all of their employees should be deprived of a job or a livlihood ! Is that what YOU are saying ???????
WELL THAT IS NOT THE AMERICA THAT I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN !!!!!

I am so happy I was never or will ever be in this loony tune group called democrats – if its not one thing they are against its another – soon they will have created a list so small of what they like or tolerate, they will only have to choose between A or B on the list. I can see this political group in the future as it rolls into the abyss never to be seen again- as the Titanic hit an iceberg straight up a head, see any comparison?

“…the chicken fast-food chain had become an ‘ideological battlefield’, over their supposed ‘anti-gay policies’.”
Does this mean that the Democrats are also going to boycott and ban Jesus upon His return? I wonder how Democrats who claim to be Christians rectify GOD’s mandate in the Bible’s Old Testament in the book of Leviticus: Ch.18, Vs.22 & Ch.20, Vs.13?

It’s ironic that democrats call everyone else “bigots’ and “racists” when they represent the majority of racist and bigoted positions in the English speaking world. I don’t understand how or why anyone is attracted to their side.

“Idealogical” = dog whistle for “Christian”.
Remember? the Democrats took gos out of their platform in 2012.
The Evil Corrupt Crooked LIberal Democrats BUFFOONS and their loser-followers, have been such a Monumental Failure to our Nation, that they have no alternative but to go after Chicken Fil – A, to remain half-relevant in a country that finally recognized, how a bunch of scum losers they REALLY are… no wonder they call the Devil Cesspool, HOME!
GOD BLESS AMERICA
Semper fi.

Chik-Fil-A is Christian owned. Libs hate Christianity and Christians. Hardly a difficult deduction.

If any Chik-Fil-A had shown up there, y’all would have said they were hypocrites. We’re in the era of damned if you do and damned if you don’t. Just stop the nonsense.

This IS a taste/sample of just how Socialism works. Tyranny is their Real game. They want Full control over YOUR life.

All of these liberals and democrats are nothing but money grubbing Government “TIT” sucking scum. It would be nice is they would try and help the Country instead of trying to damage it for their own self gratification. To all those who voted to allow the Demorats to gain control of the House, I hope you are now happy and remember you will get “ALL” you deserve. Dumb asses!!!!

I remember when Chick-Fil-A banned homosexuals from their restaurants. No, wait that didn’t happen. They closed on Sundays, except for emergency’s. They also serve all willing to pay and some that cannot. Now that is truly bigoted. Democrats do live in Bizarro World.

What does it mean? I’ll tell you what it means, my shopping list just got longer and family and friends are getting Chick Filet gift cards this year, the perfect Holiday gift, God approved. Besides this is the second time this has come up and the reatring of the gay issue which is bogus simply because they promote family values. Promoting family values is not anti gay but perhaps gays are admitting they are anti family? Sounds more like DNC blackmail.

Maybe you should research the latest information on salt intake. It appears that, as with everything else that the medical community said was bad, you need way more salt than they previously claimed. Overindulging is one thing, but eating Chick-fil-A occasionally isn’t the least bit harmful!

Excellent idea. Be sure to share that with Democrats everywhere. Maybe even have a Chick-Fil-a dinner sent to the Republican members of Congress, daily?

I encourage all Conservatives to stuff themselves on Chick Fil A 24/7/365 (except on Sundays, of course).
That crap they call food is so full of sodium that it will cause strokes and heart attacks.
So..eat away to your (soon to be exploding) heart’s content….

The answer to why Chick Fil A is banned can be summed up in one word: CHRISTIAN.
If Chick Fil A were not openly Christian there would be no problem. There is no other fast food chain that is being singled out for boycott from the left like Chick Fil A. With the popularity of Chick Fil A I can see no other reason why this should be happening. Our “Christian” nation is no longer much of a Christian nation. Those who call themselves progressive are hardly progressive when it comes to anyone who goes against their beliefs.

The more I know about “Democrats:” no matter whether or not they are communists, globalists, socialists, etc. , the less I want to be involved with them. I have never eaten at a Chick- Fil-A but I certainly will when we are out and about. The Democrats have no right, legal or otherwise, to tell us what to do in any way shape or form

Seriously? My guess is this is ‘fake news’….not event he dems can be that stupid… to p*ss off over 1/2 the country in one of their 1st meetings, but I could be wrong
Dumbocraps, the party of loony tunes. I wonder if their constituents are embarrassed or possibly ashamed yet? Of course, silly of me, nothing embarrasses or shames a Marxist/Socialist.

I do not understand the “free press”. It makes no rational sense to demonize a service business like Chick-Fill-A. Anyone affronted because they allow employees to observe the Christian Sabbath cannot differentiate between the private and public realms. They do not understand the free market. The imbeciles Bade and DeBlasio are clearly members of that ignorant class.

I always thought these people were elected to serve us not to condemn or ruin us! I really do not remember this kind of crap going on until last 10-12 years. It seems to be 99% Democrat thing. We need to stop the Special Interest, Under the Table Funds, Their Medical, Their LIFE TIME RETIREMENTS! They are no better that the people that elected them. They need to be brought down from their God Positions to the real world! There is not a God in all them put together. We need the evasive 2-Term installed! Bring them back into the real world!

That boycott 5-6 years ago was nationwide, not just NYC. Chic-for-Lay reported their highest sales day ever. I went. The line to get into parking lot was 3 blocks long. Just think – no gay people – what a pleasant place to eat! If thy onl;y served pork, we could be free of muslims too.
