Chuck Woolery is not looking for a Love Connection with gay people. At the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C., Thursday, the former game show host said the U.S. Court of Appeals was wrong to find Proposition 8 unconstitutional.

After meeting up with ousted Republican presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann, Woolery said gay people and African-Americans don't need civil rights or legal protections against discrimination, according to the The Huffington Post.

"Majority rules," he said, referring to the Proposition 8 vote in 2008. "We were born with national rights. We don't need civil rights. [African-Americans] don't need civil rights. They don't need them. They have inalienable rights granted by God in the Constitution. I mean, I'm discriminated against all the time. I don't care. It doesn't bother me. [I'm discriminated against] because I'm old."
