This from the woman who called Kerry "tawrdy" and "NOT a good person" whilst pointing out his "phony orange tan". What a piece of work she truly is.

ASPEN — Lynne Cheney dipped into current politics with one-word quips and well-distanced comments Wednesday afternoon during an appearance at the Aspen Institute, keeping her remarks mostly to education and history.
She denounced the way politics have grown acrimonious, expressed dislike of the 24-hour news cycle and touched on women running for president.
“National security is the driving issue,” Cheney said on the possibility of a female president. “The stereotype exists that women are softer. Maybe it’s not true. I don’t think it’s true. But it’s a little bit of a challenge to overcome for a woman president.” Though she didn’t mention Hillary Clinton, Cheney did say the election is getting close enough that the question of a woman president is not so abstract. “If you’re thinking of Condi Rice,” Cheney said, “I think she has good credentials.”....
Aspen Institute chief executive Walter Isaacson said Cheney would not be answering questions about major political topics such as the war in Iraq during the question-and-answer period. “You can ask such questions, but she can’t answer them,” Isaacson said.
“Can’t?” Cheney quipped, though she did mention that she gets riled up about the political side of things. “It does make me and my daughters very angry,” she said. “I just hope no one taps into my Blackberry.”
