 There are many that have bastardized me, said that I was going to hell on social media. There was even one radio station that encouraged their listeners to call here to the church and tell me I was going to hell.

Albert Narj is the pastor 1 at West Point Baptist Church in Chicago. And as his state moves toward legalizing gay marriage his stands of support for that effort has drawn 2 criticism  from some of his clergy 3, and from other Black church leaders across the Windy City.
Many of them came and whispered in my ears, ¡°I support you, man.¡± But they won't come out publicly because you will be ostracized 4.
Do your think these clergy colleagues of yours will eventually come out and support gay marriage? Do you think it's heading in that direction.
If you had a better chance of becoming African American, my friend, it's not going to happen.
Welcome to CNN Radio News day. I'm Tommy Undres. Gay marriage and the Black church, civil rights and sexuality. We'll take up that evolving conversation later in the show. But first we start with what turned into a wild day on Capitol Hill, and the most unexpected news left the nearly full House of Representatives silent.
You¡¯ve heard that kind of hiss 5? Well, you might hear a few grumbling 6 in a second. That's the sound of a massive bill, the 5-year farm bill, sponsored by Republicans nearly failing. House members just stood in silence at a surprise.
The Yeas are 198, the Nays 7 are 234, the bill has not passed.
More on who was cheering in a second. That surprise vote came at the exact time the Senate was announcing a major bipartisan deal on immigration. To talk about both of these stories, our Lisa Dayshut Dan joins us now from her booth in the attic 9 of the Capital.
Hi, Lisa.  Hey, Tommy.
Lisa, so immigration is huge news but can I first ask you about the farm bill vote? They've been talking about this thing forever. What happened?
A lot of us settled 180s as soon as we saw that happened and almost wouldn't believe it. There were a lot of actors in this vote, Tommy. One, Republican didn't like the amount of subsidies 10 in this bill. They thought that it was laden 11 with kind of port to farmers, at least conservatives did. On the other hand, Democrats 12 didn't like cuts to food stamps that are in the bill, and more requirements for food stamp recipients 13. But I think what I really want to point out about his vote is not just how surprising it is, but that it is a very big deal. The farm bill is under a temporary extention right now. It runs out at the end of the year at least for dairy. Different products run out at different times. And if they don't pass a new farm bill or an extention, Tommy, we will revert 14 to 1949 at laws on farms and farm pricing. So this is something that Congress has got to figure out and today was a big low.
Yeah, that's basically the food policy for the entire country, right?
Yeah, that exactly is.
So I am guessing there's another round of the grain game going on right now. But let's cut to the chase. What does this mean for Speaker Noehner. We touched on his shaky fate yesterday and today he couldn't  even get a bill sponsored by his own party through?
Yeah, this was a bad day for Speaker  Boehner, and I will tell you how Republicans responded to this loss. And here is Boehner's number 2 Eric Cantor of Virginia, speaking on the floor not long after this vote, talking to Democrats.
What we saw today was a Democratic leadership in the House that was insistent 15 to undo 16 years and years a by partisan 8 work.
Now, what he is saying there is Democrats failed. He said Democrats had promised more votes on this bill and didn't deliver. Democrats are saying that's ridiculous, you are in charge, you need to come up with the votes. And here's a really amazing sound by it from former Speaker, now Democratic Leader, Nancy Pelosi on the score.
