WalMart and the GLBT agenda

GLBT = gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered

Walmart has recently stepped up its involvement in the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. The following links are for your information, so you can get your info from "the horses mouths." Do the research and draw your own conclusions. I'm not bossing anyone around on this. :-)

So...

Here is where the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce Announces Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. Membership

Here is Walmart's brief comment about it on their website

Here is Walmart's list of diversity organizations they work with from 2005. This showed me that they been involved with the NGLCC for a while; this year they just stepped up their commitment

Here and here are a couple of news stories on the stepped-up membership.

In related news, here is the press release from Boise State University about their Diversity Week (this week, actually). It lists the sponsors and events. It's a must-read, in my opinion. This is where the "agenda" part of this becomes more obvious.

So... there's some information for you do with it as you are led.
