Has San Diego ever considered an openly straight GOP mayor?

Houston tried this and it has turned out to be an unmitigated disaster.

They would do better to find a good solid conservative, Christian, American, Marine Corps veteran if they have any snap at all.

I wouldn’t hire Rush Limbaugh as a marriage counselor yet he is the finest political analyst around. I can’t see how one’s sexual proclivities would affect his mayoral duties. If they do, then boot him.

I don’t care what others do in their bedroom. I actually got in an argument on a board just the other day with some lib who insists conservatives want to put all gays in jail.

No, we don’t.

I really don’t want to know what anyone does in their bedroom. I don’t care what their color is. I don’t care what their religion is (except Islam; I admit I don’t like it). What I want is someone who isn’t going to rub their “victim” status in my face and do their job capably without any excuses.

District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis and City Councilman Carl DeMaio haven't made their marks as gay rights activists

No, but San Diego fire chief Tracy Jarman, an open lesbian, who forced straight firefighters to attend a gay pride parade certainly has.

DeMaio looks to be the best candidate on the slate right now. He's a fearless fiscal conservative. No problem with frequent appearances on KOGO's local talk shows (Chip Franklin/LaDona Harvey) to explain the issues and his position. The lefty council members avoid public exposure. Their positions are indefensible.

My opinion doesn't matter at the ballot box. I just have to pay CA state income taxes because my current assignment places me in San Diego. I'm an Idaho resident. Taxation without representation. All I get is a soapbox for my opinions.

IF it’s true that they are not gay activists, and if they are the best qualified for the job, then I don’t have a problem with it.

I abominate gay activists, who want to force their agenda on our country. But I have had gay friends and colleagues whom I could get along with without any problems. There really is a big difference. I don’t really approve of what they do, but I don’t feel obligated to say so if the subject doesn’t arise. And they don’t ask for my explicit approval.

I think that that IF I started with is important. You can’t always tell what people will do once they get into office. They might turn out to be gay activists after all. If there’s good reason to think not, then I wouldn’t worry about it. Better a decent gay in a liberal city than a crazed lib Democrat gay from the other party.

Dick Cheney has an openly gay daughter. The whole point of this article is that these GOPers are gay and nobody cares.
