Gay Activists: "neo-Nazis, the KKK and prostitutes"?

The chair of the nation's biggest St. Patrick's Day Parade marched Friday while sidestepping questions about remarks comparing gay Irish-American activists to neo-Nazis, the Ku Klux Klan and prostitutes. The parade chair, John Dunleavy, was blasted by the City Council's first openly gay leader for the remarks, which appeared in The Irish Times on Thursday.
