Excerpts from the MassResistance article: – “It was arguably the biggest sell-out in modern American political history. A group of ‘pro-family’ Republican Senators who already had the power to stop ‘gay marriage’ in New York decided to take the easy route, and simply stepped back and gave in to their opponents.”

“Several pro-family individual groups lobbied tirelessly in Albany all week. There was a good Tea Party presence. People even came from other states. Maryland activist Robert Braudus spent a day there. Bishop Harry Jackson, the nationally known black minister, came from Washington DC. And of course, MassResistance.”

“Anthony Falzarano, an ex-gay who runs a well-known ex-gay ministry in Florida, spent most of the week there. At one point there were seven prominent ex-gays lobbying at the same time including Greg Quinlan of PFOX and others.”

“Unquestionably, there was no shortage of strong pro-family messages getting to the legislators. They heard it loud and clear. The trouble was, most of them had already sold their souls.”
