"You Messed With the Wrong Faggots"

That was John Aravosis' mantra during Microsoft's abject capitulation to the extremists in Washington state. Their meddling cost an important civil rights measure the support of Microsoft, which in turn cost its support in Redmond, which caused it to fail by one vote.

Ford would have done well to confer with Microsoft before heading down the same path; seems they messed with the wrong faggots as well. They recently buckled to similar pressures from the Wingnut™ Brigade and gay activists fought back. And won.

Jaguar and Land Rover ads resume after criticism

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Ford Motor Co. said Wednesday it would reinstate and expand the scope of its advertising in gay publications after criticism from gay rights groups.

Ford said in a letter it would restore advertising for its luxury Jaguar and Land Rover brands in gay publications and run corporate ads marketing all eight of its vehicle brands in the publications.

Every paper in the country will run the AP story, and now it's a fact that we won.

Go give John and the crew at Americablog some love - they done good! Built Ford tough, those "faggots" are!
