Alabama's first openly gay state legislator fired back on Facebook over the weekend, including a threat to expose the affairs of state officials, to comments made by Republican Party officials in the wake of a federal judge declaring the state ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional.

State Rep. Patricia Todd, D-Birmingham, said she was elated and in "shock" when the judge issued the order overturning Alabama's same-sex marriage ban.

But after seeing comments by Republican officials, particularly from Alabama Speaker of the House Mike Hubbard, and seeing Attorney General Luther Strange's efforts to get a stay of the judge's orders, Todd fired off an emotional Facebook post making a threat to expose politicians' dalliances.

"This (is) a time where you find out who are accepting, loving people. To say I am disappointed in Speaker Hubbard comment's and Attorney General Strange choice to appeal the decision is an understatement. I will not stand by and allow legislators to talk about 'family values' when they have affairs, and I know of many who are and have. I will call our elected officials who want to hide in the closet OUT," Todd stated in her Facebook post over the weekend.

Todd would not name, at least yet, anyone she was referring to in her Facebook post regarding affairs.

"Don't start throwing bricks at my window when yours is already cracked as well," Todd said in an interview with AL.com Monday morning regarding her Facebook post and threat. "I'm very upset about Hubbard's (comments) and what he said about the ruling."

House Speaker Hubbard in a statement had called Friday's ruling "outrageous when a single unelected and unaccountable federal judge can overturn the will of millions of Alabamians who stand in firm support of the Sanctity of Marriage Act. "The Legislature will encourage a vigorous appeals process, and we will continue defending the Christian conservative values that make Alabama a special place to live."

Attorney General Strange's office had also filed a motion over the weekend seeking a stay of the judge's ruling, one that the judge granted Sunday evening. The stay will be lifted Feb. 9 if a higher court does not rule on an appeal.

A spokeswoman for the Attorney General's Office said they would not have a comment on Todd's Facebook post.

Hubbard issued a brief statement to AL.com in response to Todd's Facebook post. "I consider Rep. Todd a friend, and we have always enjoyed a good and cordial relationship, so I am sorry that she is upset about my remarks," Hubbard stated. "We do have a fundamental disagreement on allowing same sex marriages in Alabama, and I will continue to voice my opinion on this important social issue, just as I expect she will continue to voice hers, but we can disagree without being disagreeable."

Todd said she believes public sentiment towards same-sex marriage in Alabama has changed significantly in the past few years. "The leadership needs to recognize that now," she said.
