I’m not the biggest fan of Microsoft, as most know (note the “Made on a Mac” badge on this site). But to read this story about how Microsoft caved to theocon pressure and backed off support of Washington House Bill 1515, an anti-gay discrimination bill that’s currently under consderation in the Washington legislature.

I had hoped that Microsoft would be better than this. To think that the company that was able to stave off federal anti-trust charges would be brought to its knees by an evangelical minister is really, really scary.
