    Roy Ashburn ARRESTED: Anti-Gay State Sen. Got DUI After Leaving Gay Nightclub, Sources Say

    Early Wednesday morning, State Sen. Roy Ashburn (R-Calif.) was pulled over and arrested for drunk driving. Sources report that Ashburn -- a fierce opponent of gay rights -- was driving drunk after leaving a gay nightclub; when the officer stopped the state-issued vehicle, there was an unidentified man in the passenger seat of the car.

    Ashburn has issued an apology for the incident:

    "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."

    It only empowers a gay man to have the choice to be be anti gay.

    Yeah. I was thinking "this sounds awfully familiar" so I clicked on the link and saw it was from March 2010.

    Again?

    Just goes to show that this guy didn't learn his lesson the last time this happened.

    I can't believe this Ashburn guy is such a double hypocrite. The exact same offense almost exactly one year later?

    Probably a secret Muslim jihadist too.

    Just like you - I am in shock that just one year later we are once again dealing with homophobe jihadist Assburn.
