Ford move called part of pullback from homosexual support

The pro-family group that initiated a business boycott of Ford Motor Company last spring is calling a recent move by Ford -- dropping sponsorship of an awards show held by the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) -- one of a series of steps by the automaker to "silently" move away from its support of the homosexual agenda.

American Family Association (AFA) founder and chairman Don Wildmon says he believes Ford's cancellation of its sponsorship of the Annual GLAAD Media Awards is another direct result of the boycott by AFA, other pro-family groups, and many Americans in response to the automaker's institutional support of homosexual causes and ideology. AFA also announced last week that Ford would no longer support homosexual publications with advertising.

The automaker's financial bottom line has continued to drop since the start of the boycott last March; sales were down 13.5 percent in February compared to a year ago.

Wildmon says he is surprised that GLAAD did not publicly criticize Ford for dropping its support, but he thinks they see "the handwriting on the wall"-- that the homosexual auto consumer market alone does not have enough buying power to match those who oppose same-sex "marriage."

Am I once again beginning to actually be proud to say "I am a Ford man"

Hopefully. I just bought a Saturn because of Ford's policies on homosexuals. Maybe I can go back to a Ford for my next vehicle??
