OLYMPIA, Wash. -- Microsoft Corp. has donated $100,000 to the campaign supporting more partnership rights for Washington state gay couples.

That's the largest single donation in favor of Referendum 71, which asks voters to approve or reject a new law that expands domestic partnerships for gay and lesbian couples.

R-71, a citizen's referendum, placed SB 5688, Washington State's so called "everything but marriage" bill on the November ballot.

Sponsor's of SB 5688 openly admit it is but an incremental step towards fully legalizing same-sex marriage in Washington State.

Voters are urged to vote NO on R-71.

Well, I read on FR that only Steve Jobs was LIBERAL. So this story cannot be true.

Are there ANY tech related companies that support conservative causes?!?

Being in IT, I often feel ‘dirty’ when dealing with some of this sh#!.

OMG, boycott!

Wait, weren’t we boycotting Apple a couple days ago, too?

I guess there’s still Linux. Or ludditism.

I just installed AntiX, a Debian derivative, and am very happy with it.

As one who has contributed to the NO campaign, it’s very deflating to know I’m competing with a moneybags like MS on the other side of this issue.

The cultural Marxists realized it was dumb to try to subvert capitalism, so they just decided to take it over instead.

Now they use pro-business rhetoric to advance their radicalism. "This'll make Washington look good to Dutch businessmen!"

And conservatives have been such defenders of business that they are impotent before this kind of appeal.
