Republican Sexual Hypocrites, 2010 edition: add anti-gay California State Senator Roy Ashburn

We haven't seen a new batch of Republican Sexual Hypocrites so far 2010, but in slides anti-gay California State Senator Roy Ashburn (R-Bakersfield), who manages a triple play.

1. After being pulled over for driving erratically in downtown Sacramento at 2AM on Wed., he earned a DUI, reeking of alcohol, with bloodshot eyes, and blew over a .08.
2. He was driving a state vehicle, owned by the taxpayers at the time. Ashburn immediately won't be allowed to drive any vehicle for 30 days.
3. And the "family values" pol, who fought marriage equality, did this after leaving a gay nightclub, Faces, with an unidentified man in the state vehicle.

Blender Chino Blanco sent the Blend the video...

Ashburn, a father of four, is a Republican Senator representing parts of Kern, Tulare and San Bernardino Counties with a history of opposing gay rights.

It just goes to show how truly screwed up mentally they are.

And they're making decisions for the rest of us. :scared:

3. You know, this isn't even suprising anymore - Said it before but
it bears repeating - when they start talking more about gay sex than me and any five of my gay friends, they've got some demons in their closet.

Dear GOP wives - if your man is hitting the anti-homo stuff often and loudly, hire a private detective. The loudness is supposed to cover up any gay vibes they're afraid of leaking out
