Sacramento, CA (AP) -- A bill honoring a gay political icon in California has been sent to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The legislation proclaims a "day of significance" each May 22, the birthday of former San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk. It would not be a state holiday.

Milk became the nation's first openly gay man to hold a prominent political office...

For the last 30 years, this case has baffled me. Along with Supervisor Milk, the MAYOR (George Moscone) was also shot dead. One would think that the mayor's assassination — THE MAYOR — would receive all the headlines. Now that point is just a mere afterthought in a journalistic report.

But it's San Francisco afterall. Why am I not surprised?

The liberals in California can't figure out how to balance the budget but they have the time to honor a Gay Pride martyr!

What’s the life of a Mayor worth compared to a member of The Master Race?

It may start out as a “day of significance” but soon the “marriange equality” crowd with be demanding “paid holiday equality” so Harvey can get the same recognition a Cesar Chavez.

Another vacation for state employees.

Dear Mexifornia - Do you still wonder why your state has NO budget and currently faces a HUGE budget shortfall while thousands of state workers are being punished for the state legislature not creating a budget to send to the Governator?

If so, re-read that first sentence in italics. Apparently, the legislature thinks this is more important than doing the job they were sent to Sacramento to perform.

Well, if Moscone wasn't a queer; that would explain it.

Didn’t they have a NYC school named after him that was supposed to be a special school to endorse homesexual conduct? It was the one where the students and teachers were arrested for running a homosexual prostitution ring.

It’s things like this the California legislature excels at, and nothing else. This is starting to remind me of the silliness in the Roman Senate, like the time they gave Caligula’s horse an honorary seat in the Senate.

Isn’t he the guy that outed the guy that saved President Ford’s life? I think the guy ended up committing suicide.

“Hate food”

You’ve added to the lexicon, LOL!

Now watch as the muzzies apply that moniker to pig products.

Muzzies are real quiet here in South Carolina (like the quiet little mosque I can see from across the street).

Must be the universal presence of all that good southern barbecue (bet the aroma drives them to Allah Fubar).

Anyway, Sodom-on-the-Bay just goes on being what it is.

Worthless, meaningless activity by a extremist legislature.
