Shows how little you know.
Ford Motors just reversed itself yesterday on its anti-gay policy that the AFA (American Family Association - union of Christian bigots) tried to force on them. The threat? Do it, or we'll boycott. The fundibots have tried the same trick with Disney, American Airlines, etc.
And this month Falwell announced an army of lawyers that he was going to launch against K-Mart, Sears, etc. -- any retailer that said "Happy Holidays" instead of mentioning Christmas. And don't forget Pat Robertson's little group of lawyers, the ACLJ, headed by Jay Sekulow - looking for any reason to sue a company if they feel that christians are put at the head of the line.
And on the secular side, there are packs of conservative lawyers threatening companies - lawyers who work for, oh, Phillip Morris, the Pacific Legal Foundation, Exxon-Mobil, etc.
So my dear little alpha-tart: that's what happens when you only read Soldier of Fortune Magazine and the Drudge Report: there's a whole reality out there that just frickin' blows right by you without you ever catching a clue. |
