Ford exec who brokered secret deal with gay-haters caught leading the charge for Bush's extreme right Supreme Court nominees out of his Ford office
So, Ford embraces anti-gay bigotry. And the two Ford execs who negotiated the anti-gay secret deal with the gay-hating extremist groups, Ziad Ojakli and David Leitch, are actually former top officials in the Bush White House. And now we find out, below, that one of those same top Bush/Ford officials is also running secret meetings out of Ford's own offices in support of Bush's far-right Supreme Court nominees.

I telephoned them, and told them I wouldn't be buying another Ford for awhile - until they met with PFLAG and their allies and resolved this issue to this coalition's satisfaction.

Ford needs to reverse such, this is beyond pathetic if they hope not to lose more business then they already have.

not a big shock. after all henry ford was a virulent anti semite. seems like hatred like this is passed down from generation to generation all too often.

Fact!

Hear that Ford???

My job entails daily contact with multiple Ford offices. I also have fleet purchase privileges for Ford vehicles and affiliated brands.

I'm getting a new car in January. It will be a Prius.

over the past 20 yrs. I will be trading in my Ford next week. I plan on getting the Pontiac Vibe which is a car built by GM and Toyota. It really is just the Toyota Matrix.

This was the same group that was boycotting Disney, Crest toothpaste, Volkswagen, Tide detergent, Clorox bleach, Pampers, MTV, Abercrombie & Fitch, K-Mart, Burger King, the Carl's Jr. hamburger chain, Kraft Foods, Mary Kay Cosmetics, Old Navy stores, NutriSystem, and American Airlines. Late last year, the AFA went after the movie "Shark Tale," because the group believed the movie was designed to brainwash children into accepting gay rights. Then, it was American Girl dolls. Then it was Target for its lack of the word "Christmas" in its advertising. The whole thing is pretty embarrassing, but the AFA just keeps doing it.

They are at all the pride events, and advertise in all the major gay magazines. They're good cars too.

I got a BMW. Germans got over their homophobia years ago.
