Over on City Desk, Mike DeBonis is reporting that the D.C. Council voted unanimously to pass a package of bills that includes recognition for out of state same-sex marriages.
Why did Marion Barry, who led a chant of “No to same-sex marriage” at an anti-gay-marriage rally last week, decline to oppose the gay marriage bill? Oh: He didn’t realize what he was voting on. According to DeBonis, Barry realized his mistake minutes later and moved for reconsideration, firing up the Council debate on marriage.
No take-backs, Marion Barry. No-take backs.
