There is a saying,  truth is stranger than fiction,  you really couldn’t make it us, early Wednesday morning, the anti-gay California State Senator, Roy Ashburn was  spotted and  stopped by the local police.   Ashburn was then arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol.

Now this news on it’s own is nothing unusual.   Politicians all over the world like the odd tipple,  and it’s quite common for them to be charged with drink driving and things like that.   But  what turns this story upside down,  has created a media frenzy is where this opponent of gay rights was  seen leaving  Faces,  a gay nightclub in downtown Sacramento!

Yep,   this campaigner against our equal rights, not only gets himself busted drink driving coming out of a gay club,  but he also had an unidentified male in the passenger seat,  and let me tell you,  it wasn’t any of his staff!

The ashamed father of four issued a statement -

“I am deeply sorry for my actions and offer no excuse for my poor judgment. I accept complete responsibility for my conduct and am prepared to accept the consequences for what I did. I am also truly sorry for the impact this incident will have on those who support and trust me – my family, my constituents, my friends, and my colleagues in the Senate.”
