“This is just getting a little old. Ford has made its position very clear. It is a position that is respectful and acknowledging the diversity of its customers and employees. It's made a very principled decision on this matter. For that we can be very happy and they should be very proud. People who want to continue to poke sticks in these kinds of things and bully people don't serve anybody. There's nothing helpful, positive, or rational about people who want to continue to create controversy and an issue over this whole Ford matter.”
