The same guy that keeps pushing for a 15-week national abortion ban, and lying about late term abortions over, and over, and over again, and that is so callous towards women on the issue of reproductive rights that he decided to take a nap during a hearing where a Texas woman testified about nearly dying as a result of being denied an abortion, wants us to believe that Republicans are the party that are "tolerant" and want to "get out of your business.
Sure thing, Lindsey. On this Wednesday's Fox & Friends, unprompted by any of the hosts, Graham brought up a recent story out of New York about a bill that would require restaurants in state highway system rest areas to operate seven days a week, which would interfere with fast food chain Chick-fil-A and its policy of staying closed on Sundays. Graham, of course didn't mention the context that it would only be locations in rest areas.
GRAHAM: To the Chick-fil-A people, you stand your ground. I've got your back. It's illegal what they're trying to do. Trying to make Chick-fil-A on Sunday violates their constitutional rights, and this is one of the most liberal places in the world, and we're going to fight you New York. We're not going to give into this. This is Wednesday. This is God's chicken. [...]
Here's what. Those kids in the Satan club, buy them some chicken minis, you'll turn them around. The bottom line is, conservatives are tolerant. We are, you know, kind of get out of your business, you leave me alone, I’ll leave you alone. It's time to push back. I'm sure this is a publicity stunt, but the idea that the state of New York is going to make a company change its policies its had from its founding. They want to have one day off an employee needs to recognize the lord, and they can do it, and to the people in New York who are pushing this, you're in for one hell of a fight.
Users on the social media site formerly known as Twitter (Xitter) responded appropriately to Graham's hypocrisy.
