Liz is mouthing whatever words she thinks she needs to mouth to become a Senate RINO.

Someone help me out here. Isn’t it possible to have friends and family who are “gay”, but, still want them to find happiness in life? But at the same time, still not want to change the definition of marriage???

Isn’t it possible that Liz Cheney loves her sister in spite of homosexuality, wants her sister to be happy in life, but at the same time, doesn’t kowtow to the liberal homosexual agenda??? Is that an irreconciliable difference????

I feel sorry for Liz. I think she has tried to be respectful towards her sister, but it would appear that her sister, like many homosexual activists are very strident, lacking in demeanor, and easily enraged.

Good luck with that. I fear her sister will make it her mission in life to derail Liz's bid.

I’m not buying this for a minute. Her parents are 100% for “gay marriage”, and so is Liz. She is posing as anti-SSM to win over social conservatives. Once in office she would “evolve” on the issue and switch back. She is dead in the polls and desperate.

No it is not. However, we must understand that to gays, it is not a matter of leaving them alone to pursue whatever relationships they want... they want EVERYONE to celebrate their lifestyle and call it NORMAL ( that includes the religiously devout ).

She will “evolve” on this issue if she wins the nomination and I think everyone knows it

Who keeps bringing this up over and over?

It is what it is. Everybody knows that the sister is gay and does not agree with Liz. Liz says that she loves her sister but does not agree with her lifestyle.

Is this somehow a factor in her race for the senate seat?
Are there some Fred Phelps' supporters in the crowd?

Then I don't think we need to worry about it.

Dilbert, I think this entire kerfuffle is just another example of homosexuals trying to make homosexuality the sine qua non of elective politics. They seem to be the most relentlessly self-absorbed people in the nation; and, yes, I know that is saying a lot, given the high profile race-baiting we have endured over the last few decades. They seem to have never understood that tolerance does not require affirmation, that it’s perfectly reasonable to be nice to people with whom you passionately disagree, but then again, such willful denial is part and parcel of victim-hood, isn’t it?

I will be glad to help you out here.

Yes, it's certainly possible for someone to love a family member who is gay and have a good relationship with them, and want them to be happy -- but never-the-less not believe in gay marriage or to accept the relationship that they're in is a "marriage". A number of conservative politicians are in situations like that.

However, in Liz Cheney's case, this did not occur. Liz Cheney whole-heartily supported her sister's gay marriage at the time it happened, and has spent the last four years applauding every single advance of the "gay rights" movement, whether it personally involves her sister or not (gays serving openly in the military, etc.). Apparently Liz Cheney feels you have to support 100% of the gay rights agenda so she wouldn't hurt poor Mary's feelings.

Her sudden flip-flop now that she's running for the U.S. Senate is a staunchly conservative state won't change her history on this issue. Most likely, she continues to applaud her sister's gay "marriage" in private, while publicly claiming otherwise.

Whatever the two women have, it’s not a marriage. And Liz is not that woman’s SIL and never will be.

My SIL is gay and is “married.” Our family loves these 2 women, our kids love them, but just because we want them to be happy and not lonely doesn’t mean we support their lifestyle or SSM.

It’s the gays who make this a zero sum game and demand total surrender to their agenda.
