Rush Limbaugh: I Agree With Elton, No Gay Marriage
US radio host Rush Limbaugh said this week that he and Elton John share the same anti-gay marriage views. Limbaugh, known as a controversial shock jock, said on Wednesday that he and the singer support civil unions but not marriage for gay couples.
John, who is in a civil partnership, was accused of selling out the gay community for performing at Limbaugh's wedding last month for a reported $1 million. Limbaugh, who has been accused of racism and homophobia, said: "Elton John is not married to David Furnish, and Elton John is not a supporter of gay marriage.
"Elton John is on the same page as I am, as is Obama on gay marriage. He's for civil unions, but he's not for marriage." This week, John branded stars who have refused to perform in Arizona "f**kwits".
