Gay conservative group GOProud has endorsed Mitt Romney for president. This has upset gay liberal Dan Savage, who described GOProud as "house faggots."

Dan Savage and a number of LGBT groups don't like Romney because he supports amending the Constitution to ban same-sex marriage. President Barack Obama, meanwhile, says he supports marriage equality and repealing the Defense of Marriage Act.

Responding to GOProud's endorsement, Savage tweeted: "The GOP's house faggots grab their ankles, right on cue.

While GOProud disagree with Romney on gay marriage and have publicly stated as much, the group defines "gay issues" more broadly. Jimmy LaSalvia, a co-founder of GOProud, says that on issues such as the economy, healthcare, retirement security and taxes, Romney would be better for gays.
