""I may have the genetic coding that I'm inclined to be an alcoholic, but I have the desire not to do that," Republican Texas governor Rick Perry said in remarks yesterday broadcast on a local television station. "And I look at the homosexual issue in the same way."

(Reuters) - Texas Governor Rick Perry, a Republican presidential aspirant whose 2012 campaign was sunk partly because of verbal slips, has compared homosexuality to alcoholism, coming under fire again for an argument he has made previously.

Perry, in an appearance Wednesday night in San Francisco at the Commonwealth Club of California, was asked whether he believes homosexuality was a disorder, according to local media reports.

"I may have the genetic coding that I'm inclined to be an alcoholic, but I have the desire not to do that," Perry said in remarks broadcast on the CBS affiliate. "And I look at the homosexual issue in the same way."

A few people in the audience gasped in response, according to the CBS report. In his 2008 book, "On My Honor," Perry made a similar comparison.
