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.
Where did you get that idea? You want to rip up the definition of marriage found in Websters Dictionary and replace it with newspeak. Where did you get the idea that marriage can be between anyone except opposite sexes. Oh that is right you got that idea from your fag buddies. Butt buddies.
My apologies. I didn't know Websters Dictionary was the law of our land. I mistakenly thought it was the US Constution,which states all citizens are to be treated equally.
No twit. You want special privelages for your butt buddies. You want to redefine marriage to pervert it. Yes you are the enemy. You and your fag friends want to outlaw Christianity. When they go to far you certainly will be a target. Most certainly. No doubt.
I have no interest in doing anything with or to marriage,but just for the sake of argument,let's suppose homosexuals suddenly have their RIGHT to be treated THE SAME AS ALL OTHER CITIZENS recognized,and started getting married all over the land. HOW would this "pervert" YOUR marriage in any respect? Yes you are the enemy. Of course I am. I am a American,and I believe in freedom. You and your fag friends want to outlaw Christianity. Not only a lie,a damn lie. As a free citizen,you have the RIGHT to believe any damn fool thing you want to believe,and you don't need my approval or the approval of anyone else. When they go to far you certainly will be a target. Most certainly. No doubt. There ya go,A-Hab. Talking about a religious war,and killing non-believers. And this makes you different from Fundie Muslims in WHAT way?
You believe is "freedom" for anyone NOT a Christian, you hypocritical atheistic fag-hag.
Control yourself,Nancy! Where have I EVER said Christians don't have the same rights as everyone else?
You mean before or after you compared Christians..."with Stalin,Hitler,bin Laden,and the various Ayatollahs?" Like I said. You're a cartoon.

Yet none of those can hold a candle to the god of the Christian Bible in his ability to be blood thirsty.
You mean before or after you compared Christians..."with Stalin,Hitler,bin Laden,and the various Ayatollahs?" 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.
