Arnold: No To Gay Marriage
Advertisements [?]
(Los Angeles, California) Arnold Schwarzenegger today made his first public statement on gay issues in the campaign to unseat California governor Gay Davis. The bodybuilder-turned-actor-turned-politician told a radio audience that he is opposed to gay marriage, but supports domestic partnership rights.

Answering a barrage of questions on a number of issues by Sean Hannity on his syndicated radio show, which also was broadcast live on Fox Television, Schwarzenegger said: "I do support domestic partnerships" but added that he was against gay marriage. He said marriage should be between a man and a woman.

But, Schwarzenegger has yet to answer a number of other issues important to the LGBT community in the state. Last week, five California lawmakers issued a public letter to the would-be governor. (story)

The politicians, Mark Leno, Christine Kehoe, Jackie Goldberg, Sheila Kuehl, and John Laird, all Democrats and members of the LGBT Caucus Of The California Assembly, accused Schwarzenegger of implying he is pro-gay without ever taking a stand.

So much for Ah-nold being "gay friendly". A gay friendly person wouldn't say NO to the ultimate one, which would give make everything truly equal.
