This is kind of amusing- I appreciate thr fact that this guy is standing up for his beliefs, but it's ironic that he's using anti-discrimination laws that are usually the weapon of choice for the left-wing crowd.

I would go so far as to say that GM should be allowed to sponsor, or not sponsor, whatever group it wants. The rest of us are free to show our displeasure with their sponsorship choices by buying a Ford.

Uh, I hate to tell you this, but Ford does sponsor a anti-heterosexual affinity group, with a high level corporate officer as an advisor. It has done so for years. The group caters to the needs of anti-heterosexual, bi-sexual, and transgendered employees. I don't believe that you're going to find too many car companies that do business in the US that don't kiss their butts. Its no longer feeling the need for speed, its the need for speed bumps.

You may also be interested to know that the anti-homosexual movement plays a prominent role in the national so called "cool cities" initiative. They add a certain attraction to the large cities don't you know? Here in Michigan, our "cool" governor jenny mulhern has designated Detroit as a "cool" city, and named its mayor, Kwame (the Hip Hop mayor) Kilpatrick, the state's first cool cities mayor. Mayor hip hop celebrated by buying a larger diamond stud earring to replace the boulder he was sporting.

Ford is actually worse than GM in disseminating "diversity"...they've been at it longer than GM. www.worldnetdaily.com ran a May, 2001 article entitled, "Ford's controversial diversity campaign: Automaker faces suit over discrimination against older white males"...I found info about "Ford Gay, Lesbian or Bisexual Employees" (Globe) at http://people.delphi.com/fordglobe/index.htm a while back. According to this web site, GLOBE was meeting in 1994 and got Ford to change its non-discrimination policy to include "sexual orientation" in 1996.

Ford started promoting GLOBE within the corporation starting with its "September 1995 edition of Ford World, one of the company's monthly internal newspapers."

The same historical account of Ford GLOBE mentions: "Ford GLOBE began networking efforts with similar gay, lesbian and bisexual employee groups at General Motors and Chrysler Corporation, sharing a joint table at the 1996 Pridefest..."

Ford also has a Gay/Lesbian/Transgendered group listed on its "Diversity" page. Every large corporation has been threatened by these "diversity" gangsters if they don't pay their "protection" money.

A few years ago, the contracting agency I worked for (they placed people mainly at Ford and Visteon) required every employeee to watch an indoctrination "diversity" video. We learned all about Muslims and Hindus and Sikhs, even though Ford is located in Dearborn I have seen more ultra-Orthodox Jews working there than Muslims. Nothing on the video mentioned Jews or Christians.

The video explained what "harrassment" in the workplace and showed several "sample" scenarios.

One of the samples on the video showed a gay man (white) announcing to his workgroup that he was bringing his "partner" to the Company picnic. A co-worker (a black female) said that she was a devout Christian and she could not allow her children to be exposed to "perversion." Then the employees were asked to discuss how they would resolve this situation.

At that point I managed to sneak out of the "indoctrination." But would guess, though, that gay always trumps Christian even when the Christian is black and female.

Ford is no better, they donate millions to the Enviornmentalist Wackos, who do have nearly killed the logging industry.
