http://www.ontopmag.com/article.aspx?id=9889&MediaType=1&Category=26Gay marriage foe Rev. Jason McGuire has demanded an apology from New York Governor Andrew Cuomo for painting opponents of marriage equality as bigots.
Cuomo, who is credited with ensuring the passage of a gay marriage bill earlier this summer, made his remarks at an invitation-only panel last week sponsored by The New York Times.
“Ultimately, there was no answer by the opposition. There isn't! There really isn't. And as soon as you ask the question, and you probe the answer, the only answer
is, 'I want to discriminate against gay people.' And that is anti-New York, it's also anti-American,” Cuomo said.
McGuire, who heads the conservative group New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms, strongly opposed the bill.
“It is one thing to disagree on an issue of public policy, but it is quite another to question the patriotism of 150 million (or more) Americans,” McGuire said in a statement.
