Description"Family values" advocate Peter LaBarbera is urging pro-family leaders who have endorsed presidential candidate Mitt Romney to rescind their support. Romney's recent comments about state-recognized civil unions and gay rights on NBC's Meet the Press have disqualified "him as a pro-family leader," LaBarbera said. "Romney may have had a late conversion on abortion, but it appears his ninth-inning flip-flop on homosexuality is falling short due to his strong commitment to 'gay rights.'"

In his letter to pro-family leaders, LaBarbera asked, "Given Romney's extensive pro-homosexual record and willingness now to depart from principle on this crucial issue, should we trust a 'President Romney' not to reverse course again on federal pro-homosexual laws such as 'hate crimes' and ENDA (Employment Non-Discrimination Act)?"
