"You're only supporting gay rights because of your daughter. Where were you before?"

That's a sort of indefensible statement -- the gay rights movement wasn't really a thing until relatively recently so it's understandable that he never had a position. Also understandable that he has had a strong one since his daughter entered the spotlight.
