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.”
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.”

What is really funny is how clueless the PC left is. Chik-Fil-A just had record sales on Wednesday, due to all of those Christian folks that this comedian thinks is a tiny fringe. On the other hand, gays are only around 2% of the population. I seriously would not be surprised if KFC sued these folks for defamation. I'd much rather have the business of the overwhelming majority of the nation than to pander to a tiny percent.
Well,if you are a life-long leftist that has been living in cities and been a part of the entertainment industry your whole life,EVERYBODY that is a heterosexual is a fringe element. If you piss off the homos in Hollywood your career is over because none of the writers will write for you,and none of the distributors or producers want anything to do with you due to fear of a writer's strike. Same thing in NYC if you are a actor or actress. Good luck getting a job on Broadway if you are anti-homo anything.
You being for the perversion of marriage. Makes you part of the problem. Just saying.
Where did you get that idea? I'm neither for it or against it for other people regardless of their sexual orientation,and am definitely against marriage on a personal level.
Why do you use faggot words like sexual orientation? Don't bother answering I know you use the Newspeak dictionary. It is sexual preference. It is a choice. If a queer wants to get married let the queer marry a woman. People who think like you (not actually thinking) need to shunned and ridiculed. Maybe violence at some point in the future when it gets to bad.
Ok,so are you now coming out in public and admitting you are a bi-sexual that could just as easily get down and nasty with a man as you could a woman,but made the CHOICE to have sex with women instead? You have my sympathy. I never had a choice. I have always been attracted to females. It is a choice. If a queer wants to get married let the queer marry a woman. Is that what you did? People who think like you (not actually thinking) need to shunned and ridiculed. Maybe violence at some point in the future when it gets to bad. ROFLMAO! You can your little Christian Taliban buddies are going to come after me for my "Non-PC" (by YOUR standards) thought? And the difference between you people and Stalin,Hitler,bin Laden,and the various Ayatollah's is what?
And the difference between you and Roseanne Barr is...WHAT?? An extra orifice? (NOT including the hole in your head.) You really think this statement makes you look...like some kind of sage? Your values are warped, you lack any common sense...AND you're dopey. Beside that, you've become a blithering, moronic unprincipled, atheistic idiot. Are you sure you and Roseanne Barr aren't soulmates?

That isn't there yet. Oh nevermind I thought you were talking about something else. ;)
You really get touchy when forced to face the truth,don't you? Your religious programming interferes with your core beliefs as an American,and this puts you on edge. you lack any common sense...AND you're dopey. This from a man that worships a mythical creature and believes every word in a book of fiction? Are you sure you and Roseanne Barr aren't soulmates? No,but you and religious figures like the Ayotollah Khomeni,bin Laden,Stalin,Hitler,and Mao sure do seem to have a lot in common.
