OH MARY!

There is a lot of reason to be critical of my House Rep Mary Bono but this sure helps redeem any minor sins including her bad haircut:

Rep. Mary Bono says she's skipping next week's Republican National Convention partly because the party has already committed to nominate incumbent President George W. Bush and because she disagrees with her party's stance on gay marriage.

"I've been to the last three conventions," said Bono, a Palm Springs Republican. "I felt in all honesty that I don't know how it benefits the district, how it benefits me and how it benefits the party. The outcome has already been decided."

Among the reasons she gave for staying home is her disagreement with the party's support of a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage.
