SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed a bill recognizing gay marriages sanctioned in other states during the nearly five months such unions were legal in California.
Schwarzenegger says the action is consistent with a state Supreme Court ruling upholding the marriages of same-sex couples who tied the knot in California before voters approved Proposition 8.
Proposition 8 is a constitutional amendment passed in November that limits marriage to a man and a woman.
The bill signed by the governor late Sunday also says gay and lesbian couples who were married in other states after Proposition 8's passage have the same rights and benefits that California grants domestic partners.
The bill was sponsored by Democratic Sen. Mark Leno of San Francisco.

He’s keeping the baby AND the bathwater.
Nope, it’s unconstitutional according to prop. 8.
I hope all of the Arnold groupies are happy now.
I see that California has a “girlie-man” governor after all.
At some point, we need our government to read the Constitution by force if need be and actually run the operations by it.
Arnold, he played Conan the Barbarian, thinks he is Richard the Lionheart but in reality, simply the actor on the courts stage, the court jester.
Arnold the fool.
The California political establishment of both major parties sticks another finger in the eye of the people of their state.
When does this gay 5’9” sawed off European fruitcake go back to France or Austria or where ever the hell he’s from?
I’m tired of sick deviates, corrupt political frauds, queers, illegal aliens and the criminals that hire them.
Gray Davis probably would have been too timid to sign such a thing.
Sigh.
Liberals are completely anti family and everything they do and support proves it from abortion to gay marriage, from being soft on crime and criminals to their complete lack of support on gun and private property rights.

Not to quibble, but according to this site :

Arnold is 6’2” tall.

Can this Law be challenged under “Prop 8”??
Arnold Schwarzenegger -- been around the Kennedys too much.. starting to take on that Teddy look.
Is Shwartz getting his orders from the grave? (kennedy)
Gotta wonder what’s worse....living in Massachusetts,where we did everything we had to do to get this question on the ballot and the Govenor and legislature STILL wouldn’t let us vote on it.....or live in California,where the people WERE able to vote on this TWICE,and STILL the government undoes it somehow ....

Ah, a second Magna Carta, eh?
Meanwhile California is more than bankrupt.
The CA constitution is worthless; merely a tentative list of suggestions, until an enraged citizenry, by force, make it mean something again.
From the Prop 8 site:
The entire text of Proposition 8 is as follows:
“Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid and recognized in California.”
So, I would sure as heck hope it could be challenged!
Not only financially but morally as well.

He must be feeling inadequate and that is why he is turning into a dictator at this stage in life. He spent his whole life working to look perfect and now...
