Texas governor suggests gay veterans should leave state
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=102&topic_id=1533904

Texas Gov. Rick Perry suggested that gay veterans unhappy with the proposed anti-gay constitutional amendment should move elsewhere.

"I'm going to say Texas has made a decision on marriage and if there's a state with more lenient views than Texas, then maybe that's where they should live," the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Perry said Sunday.

Perry's comments were in response to a question during a news conference about what he would tell gay war veterans returning from Iraq.

Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, a group for gays in the military, today joined calls by the Lesbian & Gay Rights Lobby of Texas for Perry to apologize.

1. Fortunately, nobody will ask him about this at tonight's debate
Just like Perry won't be asked about any number of other things in his goobernatorial tenure. Instead, we'll be treated to questions along the lines of, "Goveror Perry, why are you so gosh darn likable, and are your rugged good looks a handicap in that people are always underestimating your awesome abilities?"
