And the battle rages. Moreno saying I was told by your executives they have stopped making donations to anti-gay groups. Dan Cathy dening and stating clearly that he has not changed, he has made no concessions. Even now Huckabee has been drawn into the controversy and has made a statement on his facebook page.
Unfortunately Mr Cathy and Huck have entered the dark gray world of Chicago Politics. A world were bullying and harassment are every day occurrences. Even the teacher's complained during the strike they we're being bullied. It's a way of life here. I did not know that the city can tell you who to support and who not to support. But in talking to my neighbors they tell me it happens everyday in Chicago. It's common place to make concessions in order to get a license in Chicago. Only now this is on a national level.
Moreno has stated that Chick-fil-a told him it has ceased making donations and has established workplace fairness on discrimination. On Wensdday Mr Cathy said "the Chick-fil-a culture and service tradition in our restaurants is to treat every person with honor, dignity, and respect reguardless of their belief, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender.Going forward our intent is to leave the policy debate over same sex marriage to the government political arena. "
Sunday Joe Moreno said "It's pretty simple, Mr. Carthy. Do You support the policies your executive outlined to me in writing or do you not? Yes or No?
It's really quite unbelievable to me that you can tell a person who they can and who they cannot give to. Would they turn this around and say you couldn't give to the red cross, or any charitable organization? And if you did you could not open a business in Chicago. Does Joe Marino have any legal legs to stand on? It's really quite sad when these restaurants employ a lot of people and pay good taxes. You think the city would want a business like this. People could be working by now instead of being hindered by a politician named Joe Moreno.
