There's No Pleasing Some People
The conservative Christian group Focus on the Family has closed all its Wells Fargo accounts because the San Francisco bank contributed to a gay rights group that promised to use the funds to "fight ... the anti-gay industry."
"We absolutely made a $50,000 grant to GLAAD, and we're absolutely proud of our support for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community," said Chris Hammond, spokesman for the banking giant, which gives about $2 million a year to gay and lesbian organizations.

I'm getting the sense that local charitable priorities for Wells-Fargo offices differ somewhat in political focus; alternately, is there some pro-gay, lesbian and transgender hyperconservative property rights group agenda that we don't know about?
