Mary Cheney, the openly gay daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, has married her long-time partner Heather Poe, The Daily Caller has learned.
Cheney spokeswoman Kara Ahern confirmed to TheDC that the couple married Friday morning in Washington, D.C.
In a statement provided to TheDC, both the former vice president and his wife, Lynne, said they are delighted the couple could have their relationship recognized.
Our daughter Mary and her long time partner, Heather Poe, were married today in Washington, DC, the Cheneys said.
Poe and Mary Cheney have two children: Cheney gave birth to a son in 2007, and a daughter in 2009. They live together in Virginia.
Mary and Heather have been in a committed relationship for many years, and we are delighted that they were able to take advantage of the opportunity to have that relationship recognized, the Cheneys said. Mary and Heather and their children are very important and much loved members of our family and we wish them every happiness.
We are all so happy for Heather and Mary and their beautiful kids, friend and former Cheney adviser Mary Matalin told TheDC. Happy and moved by the blessing of their commitment and strength.
Here’s wishing the lesbo couple a happy and enjoy their honey’s moon.
Most people at this site stand with G-d, and really couldn't care less whether some screeching leftist wants to give this site 'a bad name'.
...so you think G-d has no compassion..?
Mary Cheney is in the Poe house. Obama’s fault, women and lesbians most affected.
Actually, the brunette looks like a guy and the blonde does also, to a lesser degree.
I always thought Cheney was better than Bush and a real conservative.
I certainly don’t condone gay “marriages”, but what the heck is he to say? “Damn you you lesbian sinners!!!”
He’s their father for goodness sake. I am just happy I have never had that cross to bear.
LoL-—post 15 needs to end with a ba-da-bing cymbal crashing.
Did I say that? Umm...no. What is your point?
It's scary how many so called "conservatives" these days support sodomites and Gay Marriage. In my opinion it should be a banable offense on freerepublic considering it's in direct opposition to social and religious values our country was founded on. Let them take their gay loving garbage over to DU or Daily Kos where they belong.
Gay marriage is an assault on the natural family. It should not be sanctioned by the government and is nothing but an attempt at destabilizing society and depopulation.
And, no, they are NOT recognized as "married" in VA.
Gay marriage is an assault on the natural family. It should not be sanctioned by the government and is nothing but an attempt at destabilizing society and depopulation: marxist goals both.
"Certainly not. 'I love my daughter but don't endorse gay marriage' would do just fine."
"Certainly not. 'I love my daughter but don't endorse gay marriage' would do just fine."
"They" don't have anything to do with having these children. Cheney had to obtain the MALE components of procreation to father the children. Her "partner" had absolutely nothing to do with it.
Well, actually, that would have been a good response.
Agreed. Mr. Robinson's opinion on homosexuality is quite clear.
"Certainly not. 'I love my daughter but don't endorse gay marriage' would do just fine."
I would treat it as any other sinful lifestyle. If one of my adult children came to me and said "I've taken up practicing witchcraft." I wouldn't disown them, but I would certainly let them know that didn't approve of their lifestyle, nor would I attend any ceremonies or allow it to be practiced under my roof. The same with homosexuality. I would be doing a disservice to tell them, "Oh, that's just fine! I'll support you no matter what!"
That's the meme going around on facebook today from atheists.
We don’t flame; we just zot.
Bye bye, faggot.
Spare me your compassionate conservative schtick.
That neo-con clap trap doesn't work on a real Conservative. So go play your tambourine and cowbell for all your tree-hugging gay friends and leave us decent folk alone.
