ELLEN DeGeneres says she is "saddened beyond belief" a ban on gay marriage has been approved by Californian voters. DeGeneres married Australian actress Portia de Rossi in August, three months after the Californian Supreme Court legalised same-sex marriage. Yesterday's vote for Proposition 8, a constitutional amendment to outlaw gay marriage, leaves the stars and thousands of other gay couples in legal limbo. "Barack Obama is our new president.

Multiple snaps in the direction of Ellen DeGeneres, who used her daytime talk show today to argue against Sarah Palin's recent announcement (during an interview with CBN) that she'd support a constitutional amendment banning same sex marriage, a position that puts her at odds with her own running mate, Senator John McCain. Ellen's case (the whole speech embedded below) is pretty simple -- "I don't like, I don't like it. I don't agree. Maybe it's because I'm gay that I think we should all be equal.
