Candace Gingrich-Jones, a gay rights activist, told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow that she and her older half-brother, the former speaker of the House of Representatives, were "mutually respectful" but disagree on gay rights.

"He is definitely on the wrong side of history when it comes to those issues," Gingrich-Jones said.

The one on the left actually ain’t bad looking. In fact, if I didn’t know better, I’d presume it was a straight wedding with a slightly effeminate looking groom.

Gay half-sister? Why would she have a disagreement with her brother just because she is happy and gay?

"""""This equals a reverse endorsement."""""

Glad you said that, I was about to say her comment is even more reason to vote NEWT, and we owe her'm a debt of gratitude.

These liberals are such STUPID people, but they can't help themselves.
