''We are pleased that Senator McCain clarified the remarks, and we thank the senator for once again re-iterating his belief that issues concerning marriage and family laws should be left up to the states — not the federal government.''
Patrick Sammon, the president of Log Cabin Republicans, releasing a statement of support for Republican presidential candidate, John McCain, who immediately became a target of condemnation for stating his oppositon to all adoptions of children by gay people because ''both parents are important in the success of a family.'' McCain's camp later said their candidate could have ''been clearer'' in stating that he believes adoption is a state issue; although he apparently still personally disapproves of gay families being able to adopt.
