When did this happen?

I had MSNBC on as background noise as I was working on something else and the attractive talking head mentioned that they were going to speak to a Representative regarding Rep. King's (R-NY) suggestion that a law be made preventing firearms within one thousand feet of elected representatives.

Who was the Rep. that they were going to speak to?

Oh! It was Mary Bono Mack! Yes, formerly Mrs. Sonny Bono, and she thought the idea of Rep. King's was not a good one. (She may have been correct about that, but that is neither here nor there.)

And...

MSNBC identified her as (D) Palm Springs.


Now, I have killed off a considerable amount of my brain with very high ABV craft beer and even a larger portion of it by mistakenly pushing a Q-Tip too far into my ear but...

Mary Bono is a Republican.

I mean, she has to be, right? Sonny was, and she was at one point, and she speaks out against most of the things that I believe in, so...

What happened?

I try to think if she defected, or if something had changed...a quick Google search shows that she is still listed as a member of the GOP...maybe something happened today. Maybe some great change happened and MSNBC didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but...wouldn't someone else have made a big deal? I hadn't been paying attention to most things today, but...someone would have sent a message saying something.

And then...

Another look at Rep. Mack and the D had changed to a R.

I was so...disappointed and it was because some intern screwed up a chiron.
