Hamodia runs scathing anti-Weprin op-ed

The Orthodox Jewish newspaper runs an op-ed attacking Weprin over his vote for gay marriage, including this paragraph:
Weprin, you see, was watching how Weiner’s seat was slowly slipping out of his hands. He was watching with an eye on his own advancement. The price for the Democratic nod to replace the Congressman? His very soul.
For that to make much sense, you’d need to say that Weprin always opposed gay marriage until he took that vote, staring at Weiner’s seat while making that decision. I’m not sure if I accept that.
Update: Weprin actually has a solid paper trail of supporting gay marriage that extends far back before Anthony Weiner’s crotch was sent across Twitter. I’m not sure why the author of this piece, an editor at Hamodia, didn’t do his homework before attacking Weprin like this.
Here’s the article:
