What you call "evolving" others call "pandering for votes" and nothing more.

It only took five posts, lol.

No matter what state forum that has a Chick Fil A thread, a few will come out with righteous indignation and subsequently get buried by fans of their food.

My wife and I had their sandwich when we were down in TN last week and they were DEEEElicious.

I live in NJ and the nearest one is too far to drive to just for that.

Well that's a pretty dumb statement. why would liberals be triggered by this? I'm liberal and if you want to eat so-so fried chicken, be my guest. It's fast food. luckily I live in Philly where we have an abundance of southern and soul food joints so the only time I think of eating chick fil a is if I'm stuck in a mall.

but absolutely have no problems with anyone of any stripes or political bent eating there.

anyhoo, I've got a trip planned for Hawaii and don't plan on flying spending 16 hours flight time to eat somewhere that's in my local mall.

Again though, have absolutely no problem with others eating there.

"I ask these same people if they still support Obama, who was on record as late as 2012 as still opposing same sex marriage?"


Or the Clintons, who were vehemently against same sex marriage, with Bill signing the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996. There's the "pandering for votes" thing again. Ideals don't matter, only dollars and votes do. I saw Bill on an interview praising the overthrow of DOMA and all I could think of was, YOU SUPPORTED THE BILL! YOU SIGNED IT!

Its interesting that folks have to go back to 2010-2012 to find examples they think proves their case. I ask these same people if they still support Obama, who was on record as late as 2012 as still opposing same sex marriage?

I think that Chick fil a will do wonderfully in Hawaii and am glad that the company decided to expand here.
Yes, he's Mr. Chick-fil-A. He is allowed to have views independent of the corporation. Some people choose to not eat his chicken because they don't like his views. That's up to them.

I can't think of any reason why they shouldn't open a location, or locations, in Hawai'i. A lot of people like their food.

Their grilled chicken sandwich is quite good. Just saying.

16 hours? You must have some awful layovers. Get a shorter flight and you’ll have time for Chick fil a

Good Attitude! If chicken is something you enjoy, here in Hawai'i we have a plethora of chicken recipes prepared and cooked in ways that you might have yet to experience. Honestly, CAF will likely be just
another addition to that pile. Bon Appetit!

CAF? Shorthand for Chick-A-Fil. Just too lazy to tap it out on the computer keyboard. I don't know if anyone on the mainland refers to it as CAF, and to be honest, I no longer know many people on the mainland who I could bother to ask. I've never seen or stepped inside a CAF store. I actually had to go to their website to find out what the heck they offer. Regardless, it seems pretty popular in various parts of the mainland, and as I previously stated, I am curious if CAF management and its Hawai'i franchisee will site the store somewhere near the military basis and/or offer Hawaiiana menu ala McD's....
