It's an issue NOW, because the passage of Gay Marriage has opened the floodgates.
Like I said, I’m anxiously awaiting a walk-back on this one.

Huge red flag for me is Cruz is spinning like crazy trying to score political points on this. But then that shouldn’t be a surprise since this is a man who plays political football with dead babies.
