What has that do do with the office of the vice president? It didn’t enter his work life, hence the title is misleading. I don’t wish to know in what cabin the author keeps his logs.

Cheney was afflicted with a homo daughter because he was a workaholic, who spent too much time away from his family, IMO.

Reminds me of the James boys. Their father was a preacher, bringing coal miners to the Lord. But insodoing he neglected his own family. You must always make time for the family.

Hmmm. This sounds really intelligent. So what about the people who have gay sons and daughters who are not workaholics?

“Cheney was afflicted with a homo daughter because he was a workaholic, who spent too much time away from his family, IMO.”

Correlation is not causation.

If your statement was meant to explain something as an example of cause and affect, it was sadly in error.

If it had any truth - it doesn't - the statistics of the numbers of workaholic fathers in the nation would require many-times-more lesbian daughters than now exist; to have been created (nurture over nature?) from the absent-from-home lifestyle of all the actual workaholic fathers.

Fortunately, or unfortunately, the truth is more complex than your erroneous cause and affect example.

Cheney's response in its own way presaged Sarah Palin's response concerning her young, pregnant unwed daughter - the good parent still loves and will care for their child, no matter what.

Do you think that if your father and/or mother had spent more time outside the home it could have/would have been enough to make you homosexual?

For myself, the stars could fall from the heavens, the oceans could boil, the clouds could rain blood, my father and mother could have ditched me at 2 years old, my parents could have made me watch “Designing Women” and I would still be absolutely 100% heterosexual. I always assumed it was the same for most men and women; but wow.... Dad comes home from work late once to often...and BAM....suddenly your raging teenage hormones are no longer telling you that women are the bee's knees.

Does this make sense to anyone?
