FACT: The GOP is willing to consign Cheney's daughter to 2nd class status

[dolstein]

There's a reason why the GOP is furious that Kerry mentioned tonight that Cheney's daughter is a lesbian. It's won think to speak about gays and lesbians in the abstract. But a lot of people who might not otherwise be sympathetic to the gay rights argument must be wondering why it is that the President wouldn't want his Vice President's daughter to have the same rights that his own daughter have.
