Sisters - A Book By Lynne Cheney

If you look around hard enough on the Web you find some humorous stuff. Everyone knows that our Vice President, Dick Cheney, has a lesbian daughter, Mary, about whom he rarely speaks openly even though the poor girl has to work for his re-election committee. But did you know that Dick’s wife Lynne, wrote a sizzling western novel called “Sisters” which is filled with hot, steamy stuff like lesbian love, prostitution and rape, and supports a sweeping pro-feminist agenda?

The protagonist, Sophie Dymond, is obviously bisexual as she makes love to her deceased sister’s former boyfriend (outside of marriage I might add), and doesn’t shy away from sex with women either.

Written in 1981, it probably had an effect on the Cheney daughter, and helps explain some things for me at least.. So Dick Cheney's wife is a freak!

April 5 issue - In 1981, long before her husband was elected vice president, Lynne Cheney wrote "Sisters," a steamy bodice-ripper set in the 19th-century American West, featuring vivid tales of whorehouses, attempted rapes, a suspicious murder and several lesbian love affairs, of which Cheney writes approvingly. The paperback, published in Canada, has been out of print for nearly two decades.


But on April 6 the book is scheduled to be released for the first time in the United States. Many of the novel's most lurid details have already been unearthed on the Internet and by gay-rights activists, who believe Cheney's treatment of lesbian relationships in the book is at odds with the Bush administration's stance against gay marriage. (Cheney's been silent about gay marriage, although her daughter Mary is openly gay.) For example, in the book a woman says of her female lover: "How well her words describe our love—or the way it would be if we could remove all impediments, leave this place and join together. Then our union would be complete. Our lives would flow together, twin streams merging into a single river."

4. God that's boring

I mean really, really boring.

7. It;'s hilarious, really

and makes her very vulnerable to the charge that she turned her daughter into a lesbian to fulfill the fantasy she laid out in that deplorable bit of drivel.

Yeah, I know, I know. However, I'm just astonished that the religious nutcases out there who think it's a choice and blame mothers for gay children haven't latched onto this.

Oh, yeah. She's Repuglican and they're hypocrites.

12. No, I meant the book, it's really, really boring.

I guess we know why she's not a writer. Also how old was Mary when she wrote this crap?

6. Have you ever noticed how Democrats are a little promiscuous but

republicans weird out like that wingnut in Illinois and want to have sex in public, or hire hookers to watch them masturbate like big Christian Rev. Jimmy Swaggart. I think repubs are sexually repressed and when they pop out they really weird out. I bet Coulter is into S and M and she is the S.

8. What's your point?

I'm sorry, I'll have to say this is a non-issue.

Writers do not have to have ANYTHING in common with the fiction they write. This is just silly.

So she wrote a steamy book, who cares?

9. Lynne Is Clearly A Closet Case, Sir

This doubtless explains a good deal of her feigned outrage.

Knowing her husband married her only so he could breed her like a heifer to keep his cowardly hide out of Viet Nam cannot have helped much either....

11. Wonder if she The Dick and Oh'Really get together

for swapping?
