McDonald's Exposed!

I read this from the FRC on McDonald's support for gay rights, and my suspicion sensor immediately started ringing:
When asked by our friend Don Wildmon, President of the American Family Association, to remain neutral in the debate, McDonald's said, "[we] will continue to support the gay agenda including same-sex marriage."

Nobody describes themselves as supporting "the gay agenda" -- its rhetoric only used by homophobic bigots groups like the FRC. And sure enough, it appears that the "quote" is actually a paraphrase from the AFA.

A stupid typo. Perhaps -- although the FRC's purposeful modification of "they" to "we" at the start indicates that it wasn't entirely an innocent oversight.

At worst, really sleazy, at best, just another indicator of the "quality" of the FRC's operation.
