Religious right using Mary Cheney's name for anti-gay fundraising
by John in DC - 5/26/2006 10:15:00 AM


One of the lead religious right groups, the Family Research Council, is attacking Mary Cheney by name in a fundraising letter, and accusing the openly-gay daughter of the vice president of "working to undercut the importance of marriage to our survival as a society."

Here's a bit more from the email solicitation they sent out yesterday (full solicitation is below):

We have our work cut out for us as you know. In the past few weeks, the media have been filled with appearances by Mary Cheney and others who are working to undercut the importance of marriage to our survival as a society.

The media have delighted in the fact that Vice President Cheney's daughter publicly opposes the very convictions that brought her father's political party into the White House.

Wow, using the vice president's daughter to fundraise. That takes guts. Or a total lack of brains.

1. Wonder if Mary will tell them

2. Its so easy to scare the ignorant

and that's what people who send these yahoos money are, ignorant; religiously insane. Wouldn't it be better if they advocated banning divorce as a way to save marriage. Wow that sure would piss off the base; don't want to fuck with their freedoms. Using Mary Cheney's name to advocate hate, pure and simple.

"Opposes the convictions that brought cheney to office." Lets cheer on the convictions that will take him out of office.

11. You go that right.

I think her book is already in the bargain bins.

4. Maybe that was her point.

She obviously doesn't give a shit about the gay movement. But her coming out with her book over the summer and hitting the publicity tour with such force over the past month sure does keep the gay marriage bill fresh in the minds of conservatives for November...

6. Wonder if she will tell them to fuck off or call them "total slimes?"

Mary Cheney is her father's daughter - out to make a buck no matter who it hurts. Let's see if Mary the Hypocrite and Lynne the Bitch will call them out on their hate mongering - or are those just lines they use when they need to win an election? I'm betting that the Cheney women will remain mute and laugh all the way to the bank.

10. Oh of course not!

She only says those things about democrats.

These people are fine republicans.

5. how twisted can you get - this is like a John Irving novel n/t

7. All I can say is....

:rofl:
Take that, Mary! You f*cking hypocrite!
:rofl:

8. Good, she deserves to be hit

she is an enabler to her father's party...maybe if some of the hate that normal gays experiance is directed her way, she'll see the light...this has very little to do with gay marriage, it has everything to do with giving a cause to hate gays....

9. THOSE BASTARDS

John Kerry and John Edwards have a lot of nerve to do that to her!!!! :sarcasm:

[BlueStater]

13. Apparently Mary is a self-hating gay

That explains it all, really. She gets upset with Kerry and Edwards for bringing up her sexuality yet she is perfectly fine with the religious loonies using her to stir up the bigot vote. It seems so obvious now.
