The governor's office announced his approval late yesterday without any fanfare or even a signing message explaining his decision.

In addition, some critics argued that it would drive up the cost of health insurance for businesses.

hmmmm....

[Michael Goldsberry]

Arnie is a Republican?

[Saundra Duffy]

I voted for McClintock.

[2banana]

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, a real RINO...

[zerosix]

Not to mention sending more and more CA residents scattering to points elsewhere where Gays don't rule. Too bad Conan the Barbarian was given such a high profile at RNC Convention.

[John Jorsett]

And WHY were the Democrats so against this guy?

[Enterprise]

Ditto.

[NaughtiusMaximus]

Mr. and Mrs. America: Pay Attention! Another special group is awarded special privileges. The cost of your children's health insurance is soon going to rise.

Step ONE in the effects that HOMOSEXUAL "marriage" will have on normal moral people in the United States.

Our insurance rates will skyrocket now that insurance companies will be forced to insure the diseased mentally aberrant homosexuals.

[NYer]

Hey Arnold! Just a reminder!

"Homosexual unions are totally lacking in the biological and anthropological elements of marriage and family which would be the basis, on the level of reason, for granting them legal recognition. Such unions are not able to contribute in a proper way to the procreation and survival of the human race. The possibility of using recently discovered methods of artificial reproduction, beyond involving a grave lack of respect for human dignity,(15) does nothing to alter this inadequacy."

CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING PROPOSALS TO GIVE LEGAL RECOGNITION TO UNIONS BETWEEN HOMOSEXUAL PERSONS

Catholic Ping - let me know if you want on/off this list

There is NO WAY I wold put any business in California.

Why havenot shareholders objected to the cost of California to their company's California business. In this day and age it seems best to stay far far far far away.

If arnie ever gets CF under control then fine, but until that time...

[inquest]

They're not against him at all. They love having someone they can lampoon conservatives with. They wounldn't have been able to do that with McClintock. He would have been far more conservative in ways that count, but without the "girlie man" fluff which wastes political capital over nothing.

[MichaelP]

Watch the insurance premiums skyrocket. Especially for gay men.....

[NormsRevenge]

He was annointed as such by the New majority and the CA and National GOP power trioka .. what more can I say? lol

a pig in a poke is still a pig in a poke, no matter how much lipstick ya put on it.

[longtermmemmory]

California is so large that these costs WILL be spread to the rest of the nation.

[Boxsford]

Saundra, I showed up just to see if someone would write that! Good for you. He was never the right choice and never will be!!

[Boxsford]

AIDS comes to mind right off.

[little jeremiah]

Homosexual Agenda Ping - Gov. Schwarzenegger does the wrong thing. Very wrong. I didn't hear a thing about this until right now. Ayone want to put up contact numbers? Not that it'll do any good.

Domestic partnership to take effect next year. And all this after CA citizens votes to protect marriage. So the lieberals give us "gay" marriage under a different name.

Time for rational people to move out of CA.

Let me and ItsOurTimeNow if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

Someone on FR made a prediction that the democratic part will die and the Republican party will split.......beginning to believe it.

[inquest]

Watch the insurance premiums skyrocket. Especially for gay men.....

Insurance companies won't be allowed to single out homosexuals for higher premiums (discrimination, don'cha know). So everyone will have to "share the burden".
