Microsoft Donates $100,000 to Gay Rights in Washington

Microsoft has donated $100,000 to the campaign to pass Referendum 71, the proposition that would retain Washington's "everything but marriage" domestic partner law. As the Slog said, this took guts and the haters will be gunning for them.

Of course Microsoft wants R-71 to pass because they want to attract the best and brightest who are drawn to liberal communities. Gay rights are good for business.
