From the steaming lips of Ray Denney, an openly gay activist "Republican" candidate from San Diego, who just loves Arnold:

"The attempt to pass gay marriage was a cynical attempt to embarrass a governor who, up until that point, had been recognized by Equality California and the Human Rights Campaign as the most gay-friendly governor in history," Denney said.

If this tax-crazy socialist makes it, it will be my final shove to leave this perverted state. It was once a great state, until the fools that voted in the libs turned it into a liberal *&^%hole. Excessive taxation (already), trashed government education system, overrun by illegal Mexicans pandered to my the state government, and losing businesses and jobs faster than the socialists can raise more taxation on them and us.

I'm sure Susan Kennedy won't go down without a fight,, uhh, to capture as much gay vote as she can for the Gub, that is.

He has certainly not shunned their lobby when it comes to signing off on domestic partners legislation.

Governor Schwarzenegger Signs Domestic Partners Legislation
http://www.traditionalvalues.org/modules.php?sid=1891

September 16, 2004 – Homosexual activists have won a major legislative victory in California with the governor signing a domestic partners law.

The new law, sponsored by Equality California and homosexual activist legislator Christine Kehoe, requires companies that offer health, life, homeowners and auto insurance to also include coverage for unmarried domestic partners on a par with married couples.

The goal, of course, is to equate unmarried sexual partners as equal to married couples under state law.

Homosexuals have used domestic partner legislation as a wedge issue to normalize same-sex relationships and as an incremental step toward the forced legalization of homosexual liaisons as marriage.

The ultimate goal, however, is to destroy the concept of marriage altogether. TVC’s report, “Do Homosexuals Really Want The ‘Right’ To Marry?” quotes numerous homosexual activists who admit that their objective is to abolish marriage as an “archaic” institution. TVC’s article, “Homosexual Marriage: Gateway To Polygamy/Polyamory,” explains more about the effort to destroy the one-man, one-woman institution of marriage.

Arnold VETOED the homosexual marriage bill and said he will veto the homosexual school curriculum bill -- Angelides said he will sign both of them.

Can you believe how 2-faced the EQCA and Sierra Club have been so far endorsing Angelides over the Gub? I mean really, the nerve of those folks when the Gub has done a pretty good job for both of them as well.

California politics is such a muddled affair these days. Ingrates abound.

Arnold VETOED the homosexual marriage bill ..

To be Fair, after he vetoed it, he said he will leave it up to the people and the courts to decide the gay marriage issue and abide by their decision.
