Rick Perry got handed that "gotcha" question by conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt on Tuesday. Here's how he responded:
"Yeah, well, I probably would [attend a same-sex wedding]. But I think the real issue here, you know, is that's the 'gotcha' question that the Left tries to get out there…We need to be standing up and saying, hey, listen that's an interesting question, here's my answer but get this thing back to talking about how do we get Americans back working again…
…It's the economy, and it's national defense. And if you're not really not talking about those two on a regular basis and coming up with solutions on how to get this country back working, how to get this debt under control, and how to put America back into a position of being respected by our allies and being an influence in the world, then you're spending some time that frankly doesn't need to be spent on some issues that are secondary or tertiary to the future of this country.”
Watch, AFTER THE JUMP…
