… who, in 2005,while the governor of California vetoed a same-sex marriage bill and and he did it again 2 years later in 2007. Then came proposition 8 in 2008, when Arnold had a change of mind and he decided that he would fight the ban on same-sex marriage.
“Schwarzenegger said he was confident a ban would never pass in California and called the effort ‘a waste of time’,” USA Today wrote in April, 2008. Prop 8 passed that year, by a 52 — 48 margin.
In 2007, after Schwarzenegger vetoed a marriage equality bill for the second time, Geoff Kors, executive director of Equality California said, “This will be part of his legacy. He single-handedly is standing in the way of lifting the cloud of discrimination for millions of Californians.”
He also had the nerve to put down single-parent mothers who didn’t have a male at home with them because it just isn’t right to have a one-parent family, to which I agree. But, that isn’t always an option in this day and age.
From Salon:
"The parents are the single most important influence on a child, followed by education and the peer group," he told Christina Valhouli. "The number of single parents in the U.S. has quadrupled since the '60s, and there has also been an increase in violence and school shootings. All that stuff has increased largely because of a lack of parenting, and many households only have one biological parent -- so many of them are fatherless. It really creates a big problem."
Maybe someone needs to tell the cheating bastard that in many cases, the father being in the home is the problem in the first place. Just as in your case, Ahnold.
