NYC Gay Couple Teaches Tolerance In Poland

[WillParkinson]

(Warsaw) A married gay New York City couple have become the darlings of the Polish media since arriving in the country on the weekend. Brendan Fay and Tom Moulton were unknown in Poland until it was discovered they were the couple whose wedding pictures were illegally used by Lech Kaczynski last week to warn that ratifying a European Union treaty would lead to the forced legalization gay marriage.

When Fay found that the pictures were used without his or Moulton's permission he filed a formal complaint with the Polish consulate in New York.

Kaczynski used the pictures in his conservative Law and Order Party's campaign against the European Union's proposed charter of rights, called the Lisbon Treaty, during a national broadcast.

Fey and Moulton were legally married in Toronto in 2003. It was not clear where Kaczynski obtained the picture.

4. Fay's a neat guy who's been rabble-rousing in NYC for decades.

Irish born. Got fired from his Catholic school teaching job for trying to march in the St. Patrick's Day parade with the Irish Lesbian and Gay Organization back in the early-ish 90s.

We still can't march in the parade and virtually all NY DEM politicians boycott it for that reason .

But not Senator Clinton.
