Spence, I was in favor of gay marriage when the state of California (!!) rejected it, when Obama and Hilary both said they were opposed to it for religious reasons. I didn't jump on the bandwagon just because it became fashionable

I was stationed with a guy on my ship, we left on a 6 month deployment, his daughter was born 3 days after we left. He left with us, missed the birth, missed her first smile, didn’t get to see her until she was 4 months old (wife flew out and met the ship in Spain and surprised him). A lot of stories like that.
Glad Mayor Pete got to go out trick or treating with the fam while the US shipping ports ground to a halt
He took on a very important role, he needed to show the #^&#^&#^&#^& up, he failed
