The Cheneys sure are a classy family
(snip)

Vice President Cheney's daughter Mary is calling former Democratic vice presidential nominee John Edwards a "total slime" for bringing up her homosexuality in the 2004 vice-presidential debate.

In her new book "Now It's My Turn," Cheney called the move "sleazy politics" and recalls mouthing an obscenity towards Edwards from her seat in the audience. Cheney recalls that her sister and her mother showed their displeasure in a different manner — simultaneously sticking out their tongues at Edwards.

8. ...I doubt they would want it...
She may be a Cheney, but to the average faux viewer, she's still "a gay." :eyes: They aren't going to spend money getting a book by someone they still consider a lower life form.

9. That was my attempted point. Guess I didn't make it very clear.
The Fauxies wouldn't touch her book with a 10-foot pole, and the GLBT community considers her a traitor.

There must be 10 or 20 people in this country who will buy her book (OK, 21 if you count her mom).

11. The usual; right-wing think tanks.
Edited on Fri May-12-06 12:04 AM by Marr
They'll give them away by the crate to right-wing radio stations and such, which will in turn give these "best-selling" books away at various functions. The right-wing publisher feeds the funds right back into the right-wing machine, and... it's the ciiiiircle... of liiiiife.

6. The NERVE of the man!
After all, Mary Cheney made good money shilling her gay identity for Coors. She expects to be PAID for being openly gay. Edwards was flaunting her cash cow without paying royalties, and that's indefensible!!

16. Ha! Her pop outted her in 1993
During Clinton's gays in the military flap, Larry King had Cheney on his show. He asked the former SecDef if it was true that gays would wreck the efficiency and cohesion of the military. Cheney put on that sardonic grin, looked down at his hands and said "Weeeeelll... that's an old chestnut." Larry was taken aback. "Really?" Cheney, still smiling, said "Yeah, really."

That's when I knew that someone in the Cheney tribe was gay. Republicans are always about Strong Rule of Law AND tweezing out exemptions just for themselves. If old Dick was sanguine about the notion, even while his screaming banshee wife was endlessly squawking about Moral Values, he was definitely carving a special case for one of his own.
