“At least two California newspapers and the openly gay mayor of West
Sacramento knew anti-gay (California) state Sen. Roy Ashburn was gay and
yet they said nothing. On Wednesday, Ashburn was arrested for DUI while
leaving a Sacramento gay bar. … Christopher Cabaldon, the openly gay
mayor of West Sacramento, told KOVR he has spotted Senator Ashburn at gay
hot spots a number of times. (The) hypocrisy (of Ashburn’s having a
horrible anti-gay voting record and his hanging out in gay venues)
apparently didn’t bother Mayor Cabaldon enough to actually fucking say
something. And you know that if Cabaldon knew, many other queers in
Sacramento knew. If I lived in West Sacramento, I’d want to have a long
angry talk with my mayor.”
–Blogger Joe Jervis (Joe. My. God.), March 5. Actually, Cabaldon did
mention it on his Facebook page several months ago, but no one did
anything with it.
