Cheney Family Values


In Cheneys’ Gay Marriage Feud, Parents Defend Liz  

Just two thoughts on the Cheney family feud: No surprise that Dick Cheney -- who did surprise us by being pro-equality -- would then turn around and side with Liz "Mini Me" Carpetbagger. But then to Mary: Who the hell are YOU to be so indignant and drawing a line in the sand after working on the Bush-Cheney re-election campaign in 2004, one of the most anti-gay, "let's turn out the vote by scaring people with the gays" campaigns in political history? (I think I heard Lee Atwater cheering for you from the grave.) Your sexuality may not be a choice, but working to get Dad re-elected certainly was, and one that will have lasting effects on your fellow LGBT Americans for years to come. Thanks for helping Bush appoint a chief justice who is so young and so out of touch with America that we will be paying for this until long after you and I are both dead.

UPDATE: Chris Andoe asks, where was Mary Cheney's outrage over politicians who don't support gay marriage when she gave Mitt Romney $2,500 in 2012?:

Only because it WAS legal. And I don't see Obamacare as being an LGBT issue ...
