The new memoir by Mary Cheney, the lesbian daughter of the U.S. vice president, drew pointed retorts Wednesday from Democratic Sens. John Kerry and John Edwards, as well as mixed reactions from the LGBT community.

Mary Cheney makes me sick. She is one of those types who is seemingly content to just "stand by" when bad things happen to her community. But then again, I don't think that Mary considers us her "community". I think she grew up quite insulated from discrimination and blatant anti-gay abuse because she is the daughter of a powerful politician.
I also get the feeling that she is an elitist, the type who certainly would never get in the trenches with the rest of us. Her and her family's "outrage" at Kerry and Edwards mere mention of her sexual orientation is bizzare and presumably self-loathing. The woman defends the party that is against ENDA (the employment non-discrimination act), against gay adoption, against gay people in the military, and supportive of the Federal Marriage Amendment. She really does fill me with disgust. I hope we don't have to hear from her again.

"Mary Cheney's story reflects the story of so many Americans who choose to be honest and open about their sexual orientation with their families."
What a line of "bullbutter!" The writer actually believes this?,about a woman who would rather stand in the background and on the sidelines and Potty mouth a Senator during Presidential debates about her lesbianism? Then he must believe in the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus and bunnies that lay Easter Eggs!
We pleaded with her to come to come to our aid, through Johns column and Blog, and she refused us.
She's a traitor and so is her Silent Partner of a spouce? I would hope she and her partner disappear, but NOT before we get to see her Daddy and his partner in crime, Bush, get their assees hauled in for crimes against this government and war crimes!
