California's Supreme Court has upheld a ban on same-sex marriage - the latest twist in a long-running saga.
"But the court's decision was hailed as a "victory for democracy" by Brad Dacus of the Pacific Justice Institute, a conservative group that supported Proposition 8.
"[The ruling is] a victory for the civil rights of clergy, county clerks and Californians across the political spectrum who did not want to be forced by the government to approve of same-sex marriage," he said. "
arnold schwarzenigger sucks
He has opposed prop 8 since the start.
oh that is cool I didn't know that
I assumed because he was a republican
And yeah, kind of hard for me to say how big a let-down this is. I was really banking on the courts here.
Schwarzenegger's kind of a crap Republican because he works with Hollywood, believes in and wants to stop global warming, is European and likes gays.

Although he vetoed a law that would extend the benefits of marriage to same-sex couples a few years back, he did say he was against having an amendment against it.arnold schwarzenigger sucks
Although I personally opposed Proposition 8, the fact is that the majority came out in favour of it, and until the next public question comes out, that should have been the end of it.
The same thing would probably happen — if the question even got to ballot, which today is highly unlikely (and just as stupid to even ask — I don't think any state would do it).If a majority public vote banned interracial marriage, do you really think it would be upheld?
