Daniel Greenfield: Chick-Fil-A Put an Obama and Hillary Supporting Liberal In Charge of Its "Social Responsibility" Team and the Salvation Army Was Out and So Were the Other Christian Charities

Say, did you guys try Popeye's new chicken sandwich?

I did. It's pretty good. I was expecting too much, because I read (fake news) stories about people getting into fights to get the last available Popeye's chicken sandwiches.

So I allowed myself a cheat day to eat a couple of them.

I expected a chicken sandwich that would inspire mayhem and slaughter.

It didn't. But that's a pretty high standard.

Among all chicken sandwiches which do not inspire mayhem and slaughter, it was pretty darned good.

Chick-fil-A’s announcement that it was dumping the Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, which have come under attack by gay activist groups, caught Christian fans of the fast food chain by surprise. It shouldn’t have if they had been paying attention to CFA’s corporate structure.

The donations were coming out of the Chick-fil-A Foundation. The Executive Director of the CFA Foundation is Rodney D. Bullard, a former White House fellow and Assistant US Attorney. Some may have mistaken him for a conservative because he was a fellow in the Bush Administration, but he was an Obama donor, and, more recently, had donated to Hillary Clinton’s campaign while at Chick-fil-A.

Like many corporations, Chick-fil-A branded its charitable giving as a form of social responsibility. Bullard became its Vice President of Corporate Social Responsibility. Unlike charity, corporate social responsibility is a leftist endeavor to transform corporations into the political arms of radical causes. Like other formerly conservative corporations, Chick-fil-A had made the fundamental error of adopting the language and the infrastructure of its leftist peers. And that made what happened entirely inevitable.

In an interview with Business Insider earlier this year, Bullard emphasized that the Chick-fil-A Foundation had a "higher calling than any political or cultural war." The foundation boss was preparing the way for the shakeup that was coming in the fall. Even while he claimed that the CFA Foundation had a higher calling than a political or cultural war, he was preparing to accommodate the Left’s cultural war.

Thanks to Kwai Cheng Mandelbilt, if that is his real name.
