[Archie Bunker on steroids]

I can't see the folks in NW Arkansas making this decision. Are they in danger of losing some big govt contract?

Another spineless piece of corporate America raising the white flag to the pink blitzkrieg.

I can't see the folks in NW Arkansas making this decision

I wouldn't be so sure. I found myself in NW Arkansas about 9 years ago, and got a job with the Levi Strauss plant. I was flabbergasted to learn that they extended healthcare benefits to "domestic partners". The HR rep just gave me jaw-clenching smile and reminded me that their headquarters was in San Francisco.
