Chick-fil-A President and COO Dan Cathy’s decision to go public with his anti-gay views has led to a tremendous public debate, featuring protests, counter-protests, and even an unofficial ban from the city of Boston.

Although Cathy’s comments have caused an uproar, Chick-fil-A’s opposition to gay rights is not exactly breaking news. The fast food chain donated $5 million to anti-gay organizations between 2003 and 2010, and Cathy himself has donated generously to several politicians who share his opposition to marriage equality.

Here are five politicians who have received substantial donations from Cathy, according to FEC records:

    I didn’t like your greasy, prefabricated chicken or its’ sicky sweet seasoning anyway! I quit buying from you long before I knew you were a pseudo religious bigot! What would Jesus do? He would not eat Chick-fil-A!

    All this anti-gay theatrics is for one purpose:

    to conceal the little known fact that Dan Cathy is a closet queen who dresses in women’s clothes wearing makeup and likes to hang out in hollywood-style bars.

      The proof is in the pudding. If you have proof then produce it. If not – Shut up.

        Sorry you failed to see the humor in my post. I confess that I have no proof. I’ll go to my room now.

          I missed the humor and I apologize. I guess you sounded too much like the 600 plus idiots we have in Washington masquerading as Senators and congressmen.

          Have a good day.

    If Christian conservatives keep eating psuedo chicken with sweet sugary sauce they will become extinct like the dinosaurs. Already evangelical states are by far the heaviest. I know people who traveled down south and were agast how big people were. So you red staters keep eating this stuff, and pile your plate high, maybe throw in some greasy fries with that order and a 32 ounce soda to wash it down. Sneer at us folk who eat healthy and exercise, call us tree huggers, and socialists.
    We’ll see who is around in the end!

    The hardest thing about our First Amendment is standing squarly behind it, even when you hate what that person(s) is saying. COO Dan Cathy has a right to his opinion, the fact that he donates to Hate Groups is dispecable but unfortunately his right. However, it is our right not to contribute to his profits that he donates to hate groups. If you disagree with his views than stop buying his product.

    There have been reports of efforts to prevent him from opening new locations and that is wrong. However, if he is discriminating against hiring people based on their sexual orientation or not serving people based on the same than he is breaking Federal Laws and should have to adhere to the laws or pay HUGE penalties.

    Herman Cain ( he has real chrisrian values) ask him about his girl friend. What he reads in the bible he distorts and used phrase for his own agenda. He probably didn’t read the bible.
