Research question. (Lynne Cheney quote needed... if it exists)
Remember Alan Keyes' "selfish hedonism" comments? On September 1 Lynne Cheney and her straight daughter Liz Cheney were on the Bill Hemmer show.

"Asked about that remark during a CNN interview Wednesday, Elizabeth Cheney responded testily: ''It doesn't deserve a comment.""

What did Lynne say? Nothing, near as I can tell.

Please find ANY public comments Lynne Cheney made in respose to fellow Republican Alan Keyes condemning her daughter as a godless pervert. If there isn't such a quote I think that sort of interesting... and if there is, what did she say?

On a related note:

Why is Dick Cheney exploiting his gay daughter when convenient...
"Lynne and I have a gay daughter, so it's an issue that our family is very familiar with. With respect to the question of relationships, my general view is that freedom means freedom for everyone. People ought … to be free to enter into any kind of relationship they want to."

But when it's inconvenient he won't even appear on stage with her?
Where's Mary? Not With Her Family at the GOP Convention. "Mary's Up There" Mouths Lynne Cheney as Straight Family Joins Dick on Stage

Washington, DC - For the past few years, gay rights groups have been asking, "Where is Mary Cheney?" Not on stage with her family. Last night after her father, Vice President Dick Cheney, concluded his speech to the GOP Convention, he was joined on stage by his wife, his straight daughter, Elizabeth, her husband, and their children. But where was openly-gay daughter Mary? Once on stage, Lynne Cheney offered an answer when she turned to her husband and mouthed "Mary's up there," pointing to another side of the arena far away from her family...

...Last night's absence was not the only time Mary Cheney has caused controversy during this week's anti-gay convention. Earlier, Republican Illinois Senate candidate Alan Keyes referred to Mary Cheney as a selfish hedonist, comments that were later echoed by Bush friend and long-time Republican leader Pat Robertson. Mary is also the only child of either President Bush or Vice President Cheney who was not given a speaking role during the convention.
