Others throughout the blogosphere and Twitter believe the decision to bow out is in fact due to the inclusion of gays at the parade. There are even some stating that Donahue is snubbing Cardinal Dolan who will be the Grand Marshal. Cardinal Dolan surprised many and angered some with his support of gays marching at the parade. Some believe that he betrayed the Church by giving legitimacy to this subculture which has been trying to force itself in every facet of society. However, Donahue stated that these are just attempts to pit him against the Cardinal and that there is nothing factual about the claims.
Some gays have taken to Twitter to mock the Catholic League and celebrate its boycott. They are calling Donahue a bigot, cry baby and other words that I cannot put here. If it's true that pro-life groups did not apply in time, then the parade should make some accommodation and allow them to apply so that things can be fair.
