Around 2am Wednesday, March 3rd, California State Senator, Roy Ashburn (R-Bakersfield) was pulled over in his state-issued black Chevy Tahoe. There was an unidentified man travelling with the senator.

Sources say the senator had just left the gay nightclub, Faces, when police noticed the car swerving dangerously and pulled him over.

He was arrested without incident and charged with two misdemenors: driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08% or higher. The unidentified man in the vehicle with Senator Ashburn was not detained.

Senator Ashburn was released from the Sacramento County Jail on a $1,400 bond.

Roy Ashburn, who is the divorced father of four daughters, ran on a family-values platform and had voted against a bill to recognise out-of-state same sex marraiges, hosted a Traditional Values Coalition rally in Bakersfield, and received a perfect score of 100% on the Capitol Resource Family Impact scorecard for never voting yes to any equality legislation, ever.

    I don’t know what to be more shocked & amazed by. A “conservative” anti-gay politician suddenly showing his true colors or the fact there actually is a gay nightclub in Bakersfield.

    Whodathunk?
