The Ford plot thickens:

...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.

Putting aside the question of who this Ford employee actually works for, Ford or the White House, is anyone seeing a larger pattern here?

Maybe you folks ought to give Mr. Ujakli a call here in DC and let him know you're not amused by Ford having become an adjunct of the Bush White House: 202-962-5400


This all makes me wonder if Administration policy is being directed through corporate boardrooms. In other words, are corporate executive offices being used as a cover for Administration shenanigans? Or are corporations like Ford receiving government favors (such as promises of bailouts) in exchange for furthering the Administration's anti-gay agenda?

Stay tuned. This could get interesting.
