Okay, Okay...I gotta move on, but...

I'm having a hellish amount of fun perusing the craziness at WorldNutDaily. Like this headline near the top of the home page (I'm not linking to them anymore):

Flinch! Ford finally bends,
homosexual boycott over


With the subtext: "Activists say carmaker meets conditions
as sales plunged 8% per month since '05"


The group we're talking about here is the American Family Association (AFA), and according to the leader of the group for the 24 months the boycott was in place, Ford's sales dropped 8% a month, every month. He claims that over 750,000 Americans signed onto the group's boycott of Ford. Seeing as how at no point in this post does the author see fit to link to any data supporting any of these claims, I shall now claim bullshit on the entire thing. Hey, at least they leave the door open as to why Ford's sales my have declined:

The organization said its boycott was not entirely responsible for the drop in sales, but played a very significant role.


Hmmm. Yeah, sure it did. Probably almost as significant a role as the economy taking a complete and total shit in the last two years, coupled with surging oil prices, and other car producers consistently outperforming Ford in every vehicle class other than pickup trucks. You guys at the AFA really showed those fag lovers at Ford.
