  • Mr. Zelchenko: You call yourself a progressive? Heaven save us from “progressives” who think that two loving adults wanting to make a lifelong commitment are a threat to “traditional family values.” What values are those, exactly? Bigotry? Prying? Denying hardworking people their life partners’ pensions?

    Ford is taking a stand for civil rights. Good for them! I’d buy a Ford in order to reward their public-spiritedness, except that their cars are crap. Even queers like me know it.

  • Amy, I wholeheartedly support gay marriage and have said so publicly in the press. I only believe that there are a lot of Ford customers who think Ford should stay out of the debate. I grew up in a religious tradition in which we strive to maintain an open mind about an idea, even if the idea may seem offensive to us.

  • To tell you the truth, knowing that Ford supports the rights of two loving adults that commit to each other has me considering the purchase of a Ford product. I tend support a company when it makes a stand for civil rights, also I believe it is the responsibility of all americans (that includes americans that run companies) to take a stand for what they believe it right even in the face of sted fast bigotry and hatred. Sorry but Alex is right there is no such thing as Ideology-free capitalism – if you believe in something then stand up for it DAMN IT!

  • Alex, you nailed it. this is garbage. people spewing and supporting this kind of hate really need to be put in check.

    if you are not gay you have no say in this matter. it has nothing to do with you!

  • You’re absolutely right. The next time a referendum or other opportunity comes up for me to vote my conscience on these issues, I’ll be sure to abstain.

  • Can we vote against a petition?

  • Andrew Lyons

    This makes me want to buy a Ford.

  • Derek Carlisle

    I’ve decided. My next vehicle purchase will be a Ford.

  • Oscar Cuevas

    this is ridiculous. how can you “care” about traditional marriage values if there aren’t any values to begin with? i never liked ford before, and i never knew that they “supported” gay marriage campaigns, but thank you for inadvertently letting me know; i have a new respect for ford now.

  • Josh Kenny

    This is hilarious. For 30 years, you ridiculous fundamentalist bigots have been shaking down corporate America in exchange for votes on tax policy. Now that some large corporations have broken ranks with you on social issues, you expect liberals to join with you just because you pretend to be bipartisan for 5 minutes?

    PS — I am a current Ford owner. You have only made it more likely that my next car will be a Ford as well.

  • Oh no! Ford supports family values, even if those values aren’t what is “right” to all the close minded people in the world! Whatever… I say kudos to ford for supporting gay marriage. For all of you against gay marriage, why don’t you start a campaign to lower the divorce rate amongst heterosexual couples, because I have seen far more heterosexual couples divorce than gay couples break up. My sister is lesbian and has been with her girlfriend since she was a teenager… nearly 20 years! Do you know how rare it is for straight couples to stay together that long anymore?! It’s not illegal to love who you love. Get your nose out of other peoples business.

  • This post has definitely made me proud to say I own a Mazda(a brand that Ford owns). Thanks for enlightening me about Ford’s support Peter Zelchenko, you fucking prick.

    I find this cause to be very offensive. As a lesbian, I have so much more respect for Ford and am so thankful for their support. Someone who “wholeheartedly” SUPPORTS gay marriage would not create a campaign urging companies to stop SUPPORTING gay marriage campaigns because of the “preservation of traditional family values”.

    Also, trying to gain credibility as being pro gay-rights by stating that you “have said so publicly to the press” doesn’t work. I could publicly tell the press that I’m a giant purple dragon that lives in Mt. Vesuvius.


    You are contradicting yourself, sir. You need to either realize that actions like these actually harm the marriage equality movement or just admit that you are doing this because you are against gay marriage.


    You can’t support gay marriage AND be against people supporting gay marriage. Does not make sense!


    I am officially a devoted Ford customer for life.
