Roy Ashburn must resign
Statewide pro-family leader says Bakersfield legislator has shattered the public's trust
Sacramento, California -- Randy Thomasson, president of the statewide pro-family, pro-child organization SaveCalifornia.com, is calling upon state Senator Roy Ashburn to resign. Thomasson's statement is as follows:
Roy Ashburn should resign. His lying, cheating ways have boiled over and the public's trust has been shattered.
For all these reasons combined, Ashburn must go:
» He swore to uphold the law, then broke the law and endangered others by driving drunk.
» He vowed to be faithful to his wife, then broke his vows when he chose homosexuality over his marriage.
» He signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge, then broke his pledge in 2009 when he voted in favor of the biggest tax increase in state history.
» He repeatedly lied to people who asked him to honestly tell them whether he was living the homosexual lifestyle.
» Now that he has openly identified with the "LGBT" lifestyle, Ashburn is dramatically out of step with his constituents, has lost their trust, and is in danger of voting against their conservative family values.
Demonstrating himself to be self-serving, Ashburn has proven himself untrustworthy as a public servant. He should resign.
"I'm gay," Ashhburn said this morning on KERN Radio in Bakersfield. But Roy Ashburn is mistaken. No one is truly "gay" because the so-called "gay gene" does not exist. What's more, there are thousands of Americans who formerly engaged in homosexual behavior who have gotten help and have left their unnatural lifestyle behind.
