The Log Cabin Republicans in California have invited Governor Schwarzenegger to headline at the Log Cabin Benefit Dinner tonight. Excuse me? The Governor who vetoed pro-equality legislation after the California Legislature passed AB 809 which would have granted marriage equality for gay and lesbians in California? One signature away and he vetoed it. How the hell can you support him?

OK. So granted California has seen it's share of pro-GLBT bills pass and become law under Governor Schwarzenegger, we have seen a number of bills vetoed or have received a promise of a veto.

Never in this nations history has a state voted, via the legislature, to grant marriage rights to gay and lesbians--that is until California's AB 809. Schwarzenegger completely failed the GLBT community.

From the Log Cabin website:

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will headline a dinner to benefit Log Cabin Republicans on Thursday, June 29th in Hollywood, California.You won't want to miss this historic event.

A historic event would have been Gov. Schwarzenegger signing AB 809. The Log Cabin Republicans are grasping for inclusion in the Republican party and well, wake up, you are delusional.
