Dan Cathy’s anti-gay rhetoric:
I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage.
Well, actually, that’s Barack Obama speaking in 2008.
This is what Dan Cathy said.
We are very much supportive of the family — the biblical definition of the family unit.
It’s interesting to me that Dan Cathy doesn’t actually mention anything about homosexuality or same-sex marriage in the entire interview, and is painted as a bigot and a homophobe. Yet Barack Obama speaks directly about the issue in opposition same-sex marriage and his comments were largely ignored. It’s worth noting, Obama has since changed his stance on same sex marriage.
