oliticians aren't the only ones suffering from whiplash over the rapid change in public sentiment on LGBT issues during the last handful of years. New York businessmen Ian Reisner and Mati Weiderpass, who co-own the LGBT-friendly hotel Out NYC, have no doubt been taken by surprise at the fury over their dinner party last week for Ted Cruz.

The same day the New York Times report first surfaced, an effort to boycott the two entrepreneur's establishments arose on Facebook and now counts over 9,000 likes. The boycott also includes a strip of properties Reisner recently bought at the very gay-popular Fire Island Pines resort. Both Reisner and Weiderpass have since gone into full damage control

What does surprise me is that we have had no reaction (?) from Cruz' fans. Or are they just blissfully unaware.
