I hadn’t heard anything about Dick Cheney having a gay daughter (though I can’t say that it’s NOT true, either). If it WERE true, it wouldn’t be the only case in which a Bush Presidency included a close adviser with an openly gay child.
George Bush the Elder had Robert Mosbacher in his Cabinet, and Mosbacher’s daughter is a VERY out lesbian activist is Houston. Very few Republicans noticed or cared then, so IF it were true in Cheney’s case, I doubt whether anybody would care.
Are you sure you haven’t simply confused Dick Cheney With Mr. Mosbacher?
I think it’s pretty well-known that one of Cheney’s daughters is gay; but to answer Kinsy’s question, why would anyone care? Even those who have a problem with homosexuality can distinguish between the person running for office and a person not running for office. I mean, who blames Chelsea for what her father does?
Well, sure YOU can distinguish between the two because you apparently use your brain, but some of those really fundie fundamentalists are incredibly narrow-minded and firm believers in that quote about knowing people by the company they keep (can’t remember the exact quote).
