Schwarzenegger to Veto Gay Marriage Bill
Despite the debt of gratitude California's Arnold Schwarzenegger owes to gay men for forming the bulk of his early fanbase, the governor plans to veto the gay marriage bill voted on by the state legislature. From CNN:
Schwarzenegger said the legislation, approved Tuesday by lawmakers, would conflict with the intent of voters when they approved an initiative five years ago. Proposition 22 was placed on the ballot to prevent California from recognizing same-sex marriages performed in other states or countries.
