- Republican San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders reverses his stance on gay marriage after considering his gay daughter and staff members: "In the end, I could not look any of them in the face and tell them that their relationships -- their very lives -- were any less meaningful than the marriage that I share with my wife Rana." Related: I just reversed my stance on not crying at work.

The Jerry Sanders video made
I hope Alec Mapa doesn't
I hope Alec Mapa doesn't play the same stereotype as he did in "Some of My Best Friends" and "Desperate Housewives." Now that I think of it both times he played "Vern" and both of those were Marc Cherry shows.
As one of his constituents, I appreciate the mayor's change of mind. I didn't support him before but think he made the right move here, angering many. I hope he isn't penalized too badly in his reelection next year.
