Huckabee Urges "Appreciation" of Homophobic Chick-fill-A

Mike Huckabee, whose moment in the sun of possible presidential candidacy faded in Barack Obama's shadow, continues to pursue his social agenda. Some time ago, he started a publishing company whose principal purpose was the production of ideologically sound school textbooks. Today, Huckabee continues to agitate for fanatical Christian right-wing political perspectives. His most recent move, according to today's Washington Post, was to ask people to patronize Chick-fill-A fast food restaurants on August 1st in a show of solidarity with the firm's vocal, homophobic perspectives. Chick-fill-A's president, Dan Cathy, has linked his own opinion to what Cathy asserts are the Bible's insistence on "traditional" marriage and, presumably, traditional sexual relations. Huckabee shares those notions.

What Cathy's and Huckabee's stance is on Mitt Romney's Mormon missionary position remains unknown.
