ER your sense of justice is showing again.

Now there is a rock and hard place.
Should FOMOCO just wait until it blows over.
Is the recent loss due to a boycott, or to the fact that they sell overpriced gas guzzelers (I own four of them but two don't run anymore).
Maybe there is a down turn in the economy of those who buy Fords.
Say are there more die hard evangelical family value types in the market for a Ford type car or homosexuals? Who might have more money a same sex couple that both work and have no children, or one that has the father working and 2.8 kids and mom at home? I'll bet the FOMOCO has that data down to the census tract and two decimal places. Maybe they are already telling us the answer. Have they pulled their adds?
 

Say now, I just Googled the "greater texas ford dealers advertising fund" and only found four that's 4 references.
That was from:
1. the SBC
2. the queer filter
3. the commercial closet
4. ex-gay watch

Now I was looking for the "funds" web site and/or possibly a list of these 78 dealers.

I found no web site, no list of 78.

Did I get the name wrong?
That was what was on the letter.
Can anybody help me out here?
What have you found?
 

Hey, I quit buying those little fishies a couple of years ago because the "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" was selling them. I'm sorry, I have friends that are gay and have no problem with them but that guy grinning from ear to ear holding one in his lips turned my stomach. By the time I'd seen it a dozen times I couldn't look. Business is business, the bottom line counts.
 

try www.squirt.org
 

Gay cruising site, y'all. Uh, no thanks.

That kind of crap's immoral, and stupid, and dangerous, whether homo or hetero, bi-, try, omni- or agrisexual.
 

Looks to me like "Greater Texas Ford Dealers" is a faux "organization."

It figures. Focus on the Family tends not to let facts stand in the way of its oddeology.
 

Digging deeper:
Doss Rogers, aka first name of the letter, is real and is the owner of Rogers Ford Sales Inc. in Midland Texas. His site says nothing about such a letter.
John Chandler of John Chandler Ford and Carl Wilson of the Gene Messer Auto Group are advertising representatives for the area Ford dealerships in North Texas. But other than the AFA letter nothing I could find with their names on it was tied to a Homophobia boycott.
Several other names were real people tied in some way to Ford. So at least the names are real.
Maybe they put together a one time group for this purpose.
The Baptist Press out of Nashville has a release on this same letter.
I have also tried look up the names as connected subjects and the only ones that I got a hit on were Chandler and Wilson as part of the sponsorship of a Rodeo.
I looked for any quotes from any of the listed signers other than what is said in the letter and could see that anybody has followed up on it.
Now what do you think FOMOCO would do to any dealership that knowingly caused them public embarassment and potential loss of revenue?
There may be four or five actually good stories within this thing.
 

"....and couldn't see than anyone...."
 

This blog is too gay for me
 

The ten year old is back on again.
 

That's it, go ahead and make jokes. I may be stuck here for
days but you laugh, funny man. Why don't you go paint smiley
faces on the tombstones down the street, I'll bet you could make the dead laugh, you're so funny.
 

Do what?
