(Newser) – Stumping for Senate candidate Ted Cruz, Sarah Palin worked up a Texas-sized hunger and sauntered right into the gay-marriage brouhaha ignited by Chick-fil-A: The former Alaska governor tweeted a photo of herself and husband Todd at a restaurant, declaring, "Stopped by Chick-fil-A in The Woodlands to support a great business." No stranger to using less-than-wholesome food to make a political point, Politico notes that Palin also brought up the hot potato onstage at a rally for Cruz Friday, asking an aide to run her through the fast-food joint en route to the airport, saying, "We don't have that in Alaska. Love me some Chick-fil-A."

The majority of the comments that I read proves my theory that all liberals are not only mentally challenged but just plain sore losers. The Libs started bashing Chik Fil A and sent their business soaring through the roof and when a Former Governor tweets a photo of herself months after the original media hype while stating a fact, your choices are pretty limited in Alaska but the Libs that screwed up in reverse with this one and created a overnight sensation manage to find a way to name call and rant and rave about something that the media whore AKA in this case Polly Davis Doig has to stoop to the gutter level and write about this. Try writing about real news or have you forgotten how.More proof the Obama has declared war on America as he has taken control of the media as in time of war that is one of the first things you do. Please I beg all of you to step back and look at what is going on to this country America is turning into a society of College educated drones.

A pea-brained VP candidate one minute, a pea-brained nobody the next. God Bless America!
