Yes, you read that headline right. Bill Donohue, the very vocal head of the Catholic League, has emailed organizers with a request to march in this year’s New York City Gay Pride Parade.
But, no, Donohue’s inquiry is not a sign that he has had any kind of personal realization. He plans to march with a banner that reads, “Straight is Great.”

How about some select lines from Romans 1?

March?!
I’m wondering if Phil Donahue can still walk!
Can I march in the Philly Parade and borrow his banner?
If they refuse, sue them.
Perfect! Needs to be done at every gay event.
I give this a thumbs up.
Troll Level: Epic
Bravo, Mr Donohue! Bravo!
Bill Donohue has always been able to outsmart the leftists of the gay pride faction.
This time he defended the right of the St. Patrick’s Day Parade to ban gay groups and orchestrated a boycott of Guinness and now he challenges the Gay Pride Parade to have him in their own parade.
“Bill Donohue asks to march in NYC Gay Pride Parade”
The hetero-phobes will never allow it!
exactly....
How about a sign that says “Gay is common, but straight is normal”?
i just called the office and left a message for Mr Donohue thanking him and telling him there would be plenty of Catholics who will gladly march shoulder to shoulder with him....
BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
But, they are allowing it as they have accepted his request!
This is great as he will show all along the parade route and all watching in the media that his message is right.
Some judge will probably rule that normal people cannot march in the sodomite parade. That is what happened in San Diego about 20 years ago.
Looks like they accepted:
Yesterday, Catholic League president Bill Donohue was complaining about Guinness pulling its support from the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, because organizers don’t allow gay groups to march with signs in the annual event. Then he said he wanted to march in the NYC Pride parade, with a banner that says, “Straight is Great.” Well, as it happens, the gay pride parade’s organizers are totally cool with that!
In a statement issued this morning, David Studinski, the March Director of NYC Pride, proclaimed, “Mr. Donohue and his group are free to participate in the 2014 March. His group’s presence affirms the need for this year’s Pride theme, ‘We Have Won When We’re One.’ Straight is great - as long as there’s no hate.” NYC Parade Managing Director Chris Frederick also said, “Straight allies are great. We have thousands of straight people participating in the Pride March, including Catholic groups, who support LGBT youth, families and married couples.”
Frederick told us that the Catholic League truly is welcome to march, pointing that it’s “probably not the first time” that a “Straight is Great” sign has been shown in the parade. He emphasized that Donohue and his fellow Catholic Leaguers can join in what is certainly one of NYC’s most joyful parades “as long as he’s not infringing” on other people’s beliefs.
That's what I was thinking. "Straight is great," is like patriots who complain about federal government violating their constitutional rights, but evidently haven't studied federal government's constitutionally limited powers, in Donohue's case the Holy Bible, so that they can effectively argue their grievances.
“Some judge will probably rule that normal people cannot march in the sodomite parade.”
That is not going to happen.
Bill Donohue is a citizen and has every right in the world to walk down a public street. The courts will not be able to stop him from exercising his Constitutional Rights.
Well, he’s the one to ask
