I wouldn't be surprised if other CEO's are opposed to same sex marriage as well but just don't speak openly about it. Are they any better or worse than this guy? Shall we try to "out" them and compile a list of corporations to ban?
They've (as a corporation) been donating to anti-GLBT groups and lobbyists for years.
