Ah, the 'Talibangelicals' are at it again. Business is business and a gay's money is just as good as everybody elses

Business is business and if you advertise yourself as someone's special friend*, you should expect a backlash if that someone has enemies. Just as the people who're staging this boycott should expect their presidential candidate to lose the last Log Cabin Republican votes. And so on at infinitum.

My favourite boycott was Harry Rowohlt's boycott of France during the Mururoa tests. For the duration of the test he smoked his Gauloises without filters.

*Disclaimer: I haven't seen these Ford commercials. I don't know what I'm talking about.

Did you know Ford also supported the Nazi's during WWII?
During WWII? No, I don't think so. In the late 20s and early 30s? That has been claimed ever since those days, and I haven't got the slightest clue whether it's true. Henry Ford was an antisemite at the time, that much is beyond doubt.
