That's right, folks! The $4 billion fast food force is rapidly expanding to the Pacific Coast, with a new outlet in Northern California's largest, most populous city (yes, bigger than San Francisco, which gets all the publicity). That means the Grand Opening camp-out for a year of free weekly meals for the first hundred patrons has brought those dreaded fans of waffle fries closer to San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee, who, in support of similar intolerant and fascistic remarks about banning Chick-Fil-A by Democrat Mayors in Boston and Chicago, sent these tweets on July 26, 2012:
Well, it looks like Chick-Fil-A is calling the messy-mustached Mayor's bluff.
While the San Jose location is still roughly 40 miles from San Francisco's City Hall, it is closer than that to the city limits. Furthermore, there are three new locations that are completing the process of opening: One 37 miles away in the peninsula town of Mountain View (home of the first "Silicon Valley" firm) , a second opening October 11 in the East Bay city of Walnut Creek (26.9 miles away), and a third scheduled to open at a current Carl's Jr. outlet across the Golden Gate in Novato (26.5 miles).
A couple of notes about the Novato location: Novato is the second largest city in Marin County, domain of doctrinaire liberal lawmakers such as Senator Barbara Boxer, radical gay State Senator Mark Leno, and the thankfully-retiring Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey. Even in the thick of negative publicity from the gay activist-supporting mainstream media -- including widespread Bay Area news outlets' coverage of gactivist attempts to stop the Mountain View location using concerns about bicyclists and pedestrians as a fig leaf -- Chick-Fil-A closed the deal on the purchase of the Novato Carl's Jr. on...wait for it...July 25th! The day before his tweets!
Those evil, discriminatory chickens bound for consumption clearly fear no man, including the Mayor of San Francisco. Those spicy chicken sandwiches are marching on the City By The Bay from the North, East, and South, hoping to drive marriage equality advocates into the Pacific! They're closing in on Mayor Lee. They're circling. You can almost hear them ... Cluck, cluck. Cluck, cluck. Cluck cluck, cluck cluck, cluck cluck ... Cluck! CLUCK CLUCK CLUCK!
