Most egregiously, in the debate just concluded the Leader of the House claimed that I had not condemned the speech given by Senator Bernardi last night in the Senate. This is simply false. Let me quote from the release I put out earlier today—and I quote slowly and deliberately, and I hope that the Leader of the House is listening:

… I will not tolerate comments that are offensive to people in same-sex relationships.

I correct the record and I think if the Leader of the House had any decency he would accept that he got it dead wrong and offer an apology.
