And now Wal-Mart has made a deal with the Washington DC Center for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender People, agreeing to donate 5 percent of the sales made through the group's website to the Center.

Reading comprehension alert!

Unless you do your Wal-Mart shopping via the website of the Center for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender People, none of your money will go to said Center. Wal-Mart does this sort of deal with other organizations too, allowing customers to steer Wal-Mart's charity dollars to the organizations of their own choice.

Thanks, I thought it was the COMPANY'S web site, not the groups. I should read more carefully.

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!

The anti-(pick your poison) mentality of some people is definitely getting in the way of not only reading comprehension, but COMMON SENSE.
