State Senator Tom McClintock, who is “locked in a tight race for Congress” with Democrat Charlie Brown, made his positions clear on two separate ballot measures yesterday, the L.A. Times reports:

Said McClintock on Prop 8:

“Lincoln asked, ‘If you call a tail a leg, how many legs has a dog? The answer is four. Calling a tail a leg doesn’t make it one. And calling a homosexual partnership a marriage doesn’t make it one.”

And on Prop 2, which prohibits confining hens, pigs and calves in small cages that prevent extension of their limbs, he said:

“Sorry, but farm animals are food, not friends. Plan on somewhat happier cows and much higher grocery bills if this one passes.”
