Warner has been known to take more [[liberal]] positions then most Republicans. He has a mixed record on [[abortion]].<ref>http://www.ontheissues.org/Social/John_Warner_Abortion.htm</ref> He supports embryonic [[stem cell research]] and has even called himself "pro-choice." However, pro-life groups have given him satisfactory ratings because of his votes to restrict abortion. He supports a constitutional amendment banning [[same-sex marriage]] but has stated he does not think [[homosexuality]] is immoral.<ref>http://bbsnews.net/article.php/20070313153140644</ref> Warner is also one of the few Virginia elected officials who supports [[gun control]]. He voted for the Brady Bill and, in 1999, was one of only five Republicans to vote to close the so-called "gun show loophole." In 2004 Warner was one of three Republicans to sponsor an amendment by Senator [[Dianne Feinstein]] (D-[[California]]) that sought to provide for a 10-year extension of the Assault Weapons Ban. He was among ten GOP Senators who voted against charge of perjury during [[Bill Clinton]]'s impeachment.
