While we’re on the subject of CPAC and closed minds, ThinkProgress made the rounds at the conservative con-fab yesterday to gauge attendees’ reaction to news that GOP Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio supports marriage equality because he wants his gay son to have the same rights as heterosexual couples.
So, what was the reaction? Not good. One man, a pastor, even said the Senator should “quit being so selfish as to only think about his son.” Because, you know, restricting an entire population’s rights because of personal religious beliefs is so selfless. And grown men dressed like 18th Century colonists make great moral guides.
Watch the clip AFTER THE JUMP.
