This is what happens when non-political organizations or companies
decide to be politically active. They can try to play both sides of
an issue and lose both sides. Why should Microsoft be either
promoting or opposing gay marriage -- never mind both at once,
incurring all the unpopularity of both positions?

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: The trouble right now for Microsoft
is that for _so long, so many years_ they have taken a rather
progressive, liberal attitude on these things. Now they claim they
are trying to back out of it gracefully, but entirely. See our
news on this topic in http://telecom-digest.org/td-extra/nytimes.html
