Feed: Paladino's Gay Brainwashing Flap

New York Republican gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino caused a stir with anti-gay remarks Sunday while speaking to an Orthodox Jewish group.

Paladino said, "My children and your children will be much better off and much more successful getting married and having a family and I don't want them to be brainwashed into thinking that homosexuality is an equally valid or successful option, it isn't."

Paladino offered no apologies for his comments.
