Title: Fake KFC Ad with John Goodman

A hilarious new video from ‘Funny or Die’ show how KFC could have reacted to Chick-fil-A’s anti-gay-marriage stance.

Chick-fil-A’s anti-gay marriage stance may have sparked a nationwide controversy, but a hilarious new video suggests one of the chain’s competitors is using the opportunity to win the chicken war.

In a new spoof for FunnyorDie.com, John Goodman is decked out as Kentucky Fried Chicken founder and mascot Colonel Sanders and declares he “loves the gays.”

“It don’t take a bonified Einstein genius to know that I’m an old-fashioned sort,” he bellows from a Southern-styled living room.

“But when it comes to ... marriage rights - why I reckon I’m a bit more progressive than my pals down at Chick-fil-A,” he says. “Yep, let it be known that Colonel Sanders loves the gays. Hell, I might even be gay.”

The video then cuts to a man flirtatiously calling out to him, “Hey, Colonel, dinner’s almost ready.”

“See?” Goodman says to the camera mischeviously.

Outfitted in the Colonel’s signature white-suited style, Goodman uses his over-the-top impression to mock Chick-fil-A, which has been under fire since the company’s president said last month they are “guilty as charged” when it comes to supporting the “biblical definition of the family unit.”

Funny or Die

The chain donated $4 million in 2009 and 2010 to right-wing groups that oppose the legalization of gay marriage.

By contrast, the Colonel - as played by Goodman - wants to scoop up all the business Chick-fil-A has lost by alienating gay customers, advertising KFC as the place to go “if you want the gayest chicken.”

“I love all gay people always. And, we’re open on Sundays,” he says, taking another swipe at Chick-fil-A which is only open Monday through Saturday for religious reasons.

“The only church the Colonel attends on Sunday is the church of chicken,” Goodman’s Colonel says. “Not to be confused with Church’s Chicken, whom I hear, unlike myself, hate gays.”

The video comes on the heels of Wednesday’s “Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day,” in which supporters of the fast food chain packed its stores across the country in a rally organized by and Fox News host and former GOP candidate Mike Huckabee.

Despite the firestorm over Chick-fil-A’s position, the “Colonel” says he doesn’t actually care about beliefs - it all comes to money.

“I don’t actually give a s---,” Goodman says pointedly. “Gay or not, you’re all just a bunch of big old money mouths walking around talking and eating.”

Yet none of those can hold a candle to the god of the Christian Bible in his ability to be blood thirsty.

He will send all the evil ones to everlasting torment.

You need to concentrate on yourself, since you are the only one you can truly influence. Worrying about others makes you a socialist.

I know you have a strong libertarian streak in you. I don't know what side you come down on this issue.

You are right, I do have a string libertarian streak in me. But I am also a devout Christian who believes that homosexuality is a perversion.

The problem IMHO is the fact that the state is involved in marriage in the first place. Marriage is a contract between a man and a woman with God as witness. The state isn't involved at all. Oh sure, they can forcibly involve themselves as they have done, but that doesn't make their involvement anymore legitimate than the state claiming that it is midnight at three o' clock in the afternoon. Their claim that they are the deciding factor on what is and what is not a marriage is not a legitimate claim.

There are already some states that have declared that two men or two women can marry. Do you look upon that declaration as legitimate? I don't, regardless of what the state says.

By removing the state from the equation and requiring the state to look at everyone as individuals instead of groups to be manipulated and controlled, you remove the problem. This, of course, should be done in conjunction with respecting freedom of association. No business should be forced to serve a person or a group of people the business owner does not want to associate with. On the same token, no land lord should be forced to rent his property to a person or couple he considers to be immoral.

I don't care if two men or two women live together and perform act of perversion among themselves. I do not consider them a threat to me, my family, or Christianity. I will not associate myself or my family with these people and I will teach my children why. Jesus said, "If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’ If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector."

In addition, Jesus told the Apostles, "And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet."

Finally, Paul told the Corinthians, "It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: A man has his father’s wife. And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have been filled with grief and have put out of your fellowship the man who did this? Even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. And I have already passed judgment on the one who did this, just as if I were present. When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, hand this man over to Satan, so that the sinful nature may be destroyed and his spirit saved on the day of the Lord."

No where does it say to use the force of government to force compliance to God's will. It is much better, IMO, to stay away from those people and pray for them. God did not even want to give man "the state" and warned us about it, but "we" insisted on it and so he gave it to us...good and hard. If he didn't even want us to have "the state" then why would he want us to use it to force people into compliance?

It's not as if the faithful living in an immoral and decadent society is anything new. On the contrary, the OT is filled with stories of the faithful going about their life in a world of decadence and immorality. Those faithful preached the word of the Lord to any that would listen and did their own thing in accordance with the law. Did they expect the state to force compliance? No, because then, as now, the state was complicit in the decadence and immorality.

I know I am in the minority but I do not believe that looking to the state to solve an issue of immorality is a viable option, therefore the best course of action for Christians is to remove the state from the equation.

That would be special rights as a marriage is between a man and a woman.

Show me were the Constitution defines marriage that way.

You also think that girls are discriminated against because they can't join the boy scouts.

I do? I didn't know that. Thanks for telling me!

If what you call is discrimination then it is discriminatino that Mike Tyson can't box in the womans boxing league.

You are getting hysterical.

That is how stupid you are PervertPete. I'm not even mentioning your blatant immorality. Just the stupid part is what I am discussing now.

I'm not the one that thinks your marriage will be ruined if homos start getting married.

Choose wisely, Atheist. By His grace he still blesses you with the opportunity to make your decision between HIS way, or continuing to mock and reject him. But don't look to me to convince you, Satanist.

LOL! Now I'm a believer in Satan? Are you REALLY so stupid you can't understand that if I don't believe in God that I CAN'T believe in Satan?

You're just pissed off He won't give you paradise on Earth.

WOW! Look at all the things I keep learning!

Or see all the suffering and blame God.

Well,WHO'S in charge of everything that happens? Do NOT say "Satan",because that would diminish your God even more. After all ,what kind of lame-ass God that controls everything can't even control a Angel he created?

Hey - talk to your master about that - Satan.

If I do will he give me Super Powers?

He's the one creating all the havoc and convincing you that it's God's "fault" everyone suffers and that there is no Heaven after you bite the dust.

Seems to me if he is all THAT powerful,YOU are worshipping the wrong God.

I compared SOME Christians with those other "true believers". Namely,people like you.

AND.....,since none of THOSE loons were Americans,they had no rights at all under our Constitution.

What is happening today is no different than what has happened over and over again since the beginning of time. It is all part of the never ending sin-salvation cycle. The question is, do you meet immorality and decadence head-on with hatred and anger? From everything I've read in both the Old Testament and the New, the answer is no. We hunker down and turn inward. We embrace our congregation and do our best to ignore the outside world as we live our lives for Jesus. That does not mean we give up though, it just means that we focus upon those around us. We try to be Christian role models while preaching the word of the Lord to those that will listen and leaving alone those that won't, praying that our example and His will will soften their hearts.

Eventually things will get so bad that people will begin to see their folly and begin turning back to the Lord in droves. As I said, it's happened over and over since time began. For an example of what I mean by sin-salvation cycle, read the Book of Judges. What happened throughout that whole book is happening now and has been happening forever.

And the best way to do that is to kill anybody and everybody you suspect of not being a member of your religious cult?

Hello Fibr. Sneaky thinks we should redefine marriage to include same sex couples. That is perverting it. I see. This was a continuation of an on-going debate between you two. Ok, I get it now. I figured it was something like that but wasn't sure and thought I would ask.

And of course Stone is seeing this through his distorted viewpoint. I have never said any such thing. It is just his foolish beliefs that homosexual marriages are a threat to his marriage.

Do I agree with Mitt on saying the gays should be in the boy scouts. Hell no I don't. But he didn't say the Boy Scouts should be forced to accept them. I wish his opinion was more like mine but it isn't. I can accept it because he is probably just thinking they are all just kids who should be given a chance to be in the scouts. I can agree with that a bit. As there is really no such thing as gay people or gay boy scouts. They are all just sinners who make bad sinful choices. No one is born that way. So to claim to be gay is not really true. It is just a name they put on their sin to try and cover it.

BullBush! You accept it because he has the "right" union label behind his name. If he were a Dim you would be howling at the moon over what he has said.

Another great post on your part.

There is question about societal values within all your reasoning because of historical trends. Prior to WW2 the family unit was an enviable picture of America, rooted in social-cultural mores/values about raising a family within an agrarian culture. WW2 stopped this behaviour. Since WW2 America has experienced serious internal problems that have not been addressed as the fracture of the family unit as progressed. And the social trends are ever-increasing, too.

The same fracture about family values has lead to the socialization of America energized by the press and harboured by obvious QUEERS, such as yukon of LP.

There is no solution.

It goes the the redefining of our culture into some sex obsessed fag culture.

If anybody is obsessed with sex,it is you and the homos you square off against. I don't give a damn who any of you want to hump,as long as it isn't me.

I don't want to live in a nation where fags are a protected class with special protections.

But you DO want to live in a country where heterosexuals are a protected class with special protections.

How about this? How about we live in a country where everybody has these same rights and obligations IN THE EYES OF THE LAW?

After all,anything less is un-American.

These Godless perverts and satanic purveyors of ALL things subversive and perverse defy (God's) nature, laws and morality.

Let's see,here. According to a book that people like you CLAIM is the virtual word of your God,he got another man's wife pregnant,and made her and her husband raise HIS child without paying any child support whatsoever. How Godly is that? Antwan on the corner does the same thing. Why not worship Antwan?

Also,isn't this the same guy that says that jealousy is one of the "7 Deadly Sins",and then turns around and says "I am a JEALOUS God!" This is a God that can't even follow his OWN damn rules,and is surely going to burn in hell for it forever,if what he says is true.

And don't blame ME for starting this. It was you and Stone that started in on me.

The problem IMHO is the fact that the state is involved in marriage in the first place. Marriage is a contract between a man and a woman with God as witness. The state isn't involved at all. Oh sure, they can forcibly involve themselves as they have done, but that doesn't make their involvement anymore legitimate than the state claiming that it is midnight at three o' clock in the afternoon.

To be fair here,the Catholic Church,which really was a shadow government all over Europe at the time,stepped in and got involved in marriage for a number of very good reasons.

One reason was back then most people were illiterate,and priests were basically the only people that the typical serf could come into contact with that could read and write. Since somebody had to step in and accept the role of record- keeper on marriages,births,and deaths,the Catholic Church accepted this role. There really wasn't anyone else in a position to do it.

This was important for a couple of reasons. Not the least of which were establishing a social order that was clear and understandable,and establishing inheritance rights.

Naturally,once the CC lost political power and reduced to the position of mere religion,the state took over these duties.

I honestly don't think any reasonable person can question the fact that these records needed and need to be taken and kept.

One of the things about this argument is that NOBODY here is saying that ANY religion has to sanction or perform marriage ceremonies for homosexuals.

What we are talking about is the RIGHTS of homosexuals to be treated like ever other American citizen and get married in a CIVIL ceremony.

So you support your right to marry the piece of shit in Roseanne Barrs toilet.

Are you having a Midol Moment,Stone? Since WHEN is a piece of shit a American citizen?

Last I checked that wouldn't ruin my marriage.

Then you are not harmed in any respect,so it is none of your business who marries who.

Then you are inconsistent as that is the excuse you use to support queer pretend marriage.

I don't support ANY marriage. What I support is the US Constition,and the rights of ALL citizens to be treated equally.

Me do thinks you are in the closet. There is no other explanation for it unless you are just plain old stupid. You stupid Pete?

Well,it does seem clear that ONE of us is stupid,anyhow.

Just because you are to much of a dumb fuck doesn't mean you are not in fact a satanist. Just a dumb one.

BOO!

What IS Evil, Stone? Your baseless mantra about your understanding of some OhiOan Christian local church in a Sunday HELLFIRE&DAMNATION SERVICE?

One of the things about this argument is that NOBODY here is saying that ANY religion has to sanction or perform marriage ceremonies for homosexuals.

That isn't true.

How the HELL do you know it isn't true? You wouldn't recognize true if it ran over your foot.

Many of your queer allies want to force churches to marry the queers.

What queer allies is this? Name them.

And while you are at it,name ANY post of mine where I have EVER stated that homosexuals have a right to get married anywhere but in a civil ceremony.

They also want to force businesses that offer benefits to married couples to be forced to give benefits to your pervert buddies.

Yeah,we don't need nunna that stinkin' "equal treatment under the law" stuff in your 'murika,do we?

LOL! Be vewwy,vewwy careful what you are asking for Stone,because you might not like it if you get it. There will be people out there hunting wabbits with special collars.

There is NO civil government in the history of the world that is responsible for even a small percentage of the evil done in the name of religion.

Stone wackiness is shown in his personal Mittie solution about America's issues but Stone shall vote for the dumbfuck. BTW, Mittie wants gays in the boy scouts. We can suppose Stone's logical connection for a faux presidential candidate representing values to Americans leads to his own "gaydom."

Stone shall be on state welfare in no time for parroting of government BS.

I'm going to try to dumb this down to your level. It is neither ok or NOT ok. What it is,is none of your or my business.
