Four states' fired-because-of-marriage 'victim': 'When did I say I was fired b/c of Civil Marriage Act?'

Just to remind you, this is what the state ads are saying:
The sole claim of the spot is that marriage in the states (in this case Maine) will lead to others being fired like Damian.

That's not just a startling admission—it's one that damns and invalidates everyone one of these ads!
