Speakers, including Schwarzenegger, are no-shows at Log Cabin event
Four speakers failed to show at a Log Cabin Republicans soiree over the weekend: California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, former Pennsylvania Gov. Mark Schweiker, former Massachusetts Gov. Jane Swift and Christine Todd Whitman, former administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency. Of the four who did show up, only two mentioned gay concerns at all. "There are a lot of prominent Republicans behind the gay and lesbian community, and that's the way it should be," Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter told about 450 guests. Former Massachusetts Gov. William F. Weld told the crowd, "you're not going to repeal [the] biology" of same-sex attraction, in reference to his former state's Supreme Judicial Court recognition of same-sex marriage in May.
