Log Cabin Republicans still willing to work with Paladino

The country’s two national conservative gay groups have a message for Carl Paladino: We’re still willing to work with you. (Just don’t let it happen again.)

New York’s loose-tongued candidate for governor took a lashing in the media this week after he was caught on tape telling a group of Orthodox Jewish rabbis that children should not be “brainwashed into thinking that homosexuality is an equally valid or successful option” as being straight. Paladino has apologized and backtracked from his remarks, claiming he was just reading a “script”

“If elected as your governor I will stand and fight for all gay New Yorkers rights,” Paladino said in a statement. “I sincerely apologize for any comment that may have offended the Gay and Lesbian Community or their family members. Any reference to branding an entire community based on a small representation of them is wrong.”

Before the apology, The Log Cabin Republicans, a gay-rights group, called the comments “disgraceful” and “out of touch.”

3. Maybe they really like Cobalt and Buddies II
the two Buffalo gay clubs located in Paladino-owned buildings (his brother operates Cobalt). :P
