Reminds me of the old story about Henry Ford.  He was very vocal in his anti-semitism until 
he realized that large numbers of Jews were refusing to buy his cars.  He then met with 
Justice Brandeis and made a public apology.  But I think there are still some Jews who won't 
buy Ford products because of it.
