CHENEY SIS JUMPS INTO LESBIAN FRAY
New York Post ^ | October 17, 2004 | STEFAN C. FRIEDMAN

October 17, 2004 -- Add Mary Cheney's sister's name to a growing list of Cheney family members angry with Sen. John Kerry for bringing up Mary and her sexuality at last week's debate in Tempe, Ariz. Appearing on "Good Morning America" alongside first-daughter hopeful Vanessa Kerry, Liz Cheney — a married mother of four — said an apology from the Democratic nominee "would be appropriate."

But Kerry's daughter defended her dad's comments and noted that Mary Cheney's sexual preference is a matter of record.

"My father's point was the concept was celebrating a strong family," the younger Kerry said, adding that his comments echoed what Sen. John Edwards said to Cheney himself at the vice-presidential debate. "But when you choose to be part of a campaign, you choose to make yourself public."

What does being part of a campaign have to do with someone waving your sexuality around like a bloody flag?

I guess talking about your pitiful breasts and horrid horse face isn't over the top then is it Vanessa? Ugly, skanky, leeching hag that you are.

...as I posted on another thread...

It's about free will. God gave us free will, Kerry trod all over that in Mary Cheney's case. If she had wanted the issue made public, on a worldwide stage, it was her choice to do so, not Mr. Kerry's and not Mr. Edwards'. This is why the right to privacy was placed in our Bill of Rights, and considered as so important by the Founding Fathers of this nation. If God gave us free will, we have no right to mess with any person's free will...or privacy... in such a fashion. John-John not only violated her God-given rights, they violated her Constituional rights.

The crassnes of the act of doing such a thing is very telling on it's own. It reveals the characters of the candidates and of their politics. Those politics apparently care little for other's privacy, nor for The Constituion.

The Kerry's continue to prove themselves to be dire lowlifes.

This has noting to do with them, this has everything to do with Kerry's character.

Kerry stepped on a private citizen for power.

Kerry stepped on Vietnam vets for power.

Kerry can not be allowed to have power.

exactly.

It has been statements like that about Ms. Cheney that gets Mr. Bush to lookin' at him funny. My mouth dropped open more than a few times when I was watching the debates.

What Kerry says and does is so often wrong on so many levels that it's hard to know where to begin!

Kerry never met a lie he couldn't speak.

Kerry never met a truth he couldn't spin.

"Cheney Sis Jumps Into Lesbian Fray"

When I first saw headline, I read the last word as Faye Wrey. Remembering her agent promised her "the tallest, darkest movie star in all Hollywood".

In related news, Senator John Kerry has decided the use the FreeRepublic spelling of his name sKerry. In a surprise announcment, citing low poll numbers, Senator sKerry has dumped John Edwards as his running mate, and tapped Presidential brother Neil Bush as his running mate, reminiscent of Ronald Reagan.

Can anyone make a bumper sticker of this ticket?

Yes, what an unfortunate headline. I feel like I've reached my saturation point for Liberals, Democrats and spoiled candidates and their children. What Kerry did was so far from Respectful, loving or appropriate it boggles the mind and itches the hand to slap some sense into them.
AAARRRGGGHHHH! I'm speechless in the presence of such disrespectful and egomanaical posturing.

"My father's point was the concept was celebrating a strong family," the younger Kerry said, . . .

No. The "strong family" came up when he was trying to cover his tracks.

. . . adding that his comments echoed what Sen. John Edwards said to Cheney himself at the vice-presidential debate.

And this makes it better HOW?

"But when you choose to be part of a campaign, you choose to make yourself public."

Does this mean that every high school kid or housewife stuffing envelopes for a candidate becomes "fair game" too?

The minute you become a public figure, you give up those rights. Forever. After that, you're at the tender mercy of the press and political opposition.
