NJ Gov. Chris Christie Slams Texas Gov. Rick Perry On "Ex-Gay" Comment

Via the Los Angeles Times:
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who signed legislation barring “gay conversion therapy” in his state, disagreed Friday with Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s comparison of homosexuality to alcoholism, saying it was wrong. “I disagree with him, and I don’t believe that’s an apt analogy and not one that should be made,” Christie said during a San Francisco campaign appearance alongside Neel Kashkari, the GOP candidate for California governor. Christie, who is head of the Republican Governors Assn., declined, however, to speak for the organization and its members. “Every governor and public official has to speak for themselves on these issues,” Christie told reporters. “I just spoke myself.”
Christie continues to take flak from hate groups for signing New Jersey's ban.
