3. I'm betting it won't be an honest interview - just another opportunity
to pander for bucks. That is the ONE thing the Cheney's are really, really good at - making money for themselves at the expense of others.

17. He respectfully yet pointedly kept her on the defensive about
her "stand" on gay rights and why she didn't use her influence or access to try and negotiate points with the Administration. She played coy, she was just a lowly staffer who made sure "the trains ran on time" with her father's campaign. Yes, she said that.
She also kept pointing out to him if he had "read her book" he would know the answers to the questions he was asking her. :rofl:

28. What I really don't understand
is what is so damn offensive about Kerry bringing up the gay issue when she has NO problem with Letterman bringing it up?

(Oh yeah, this time it's helping to sell her book) $$$

7. "Gay marriage is an issue we need to debate and discuss"
just not in the context of my Dad's hypocrisy on national TV

19. What's going on here....
I think that Mary Cheney is a good person, but I think she doesn't make enough of an effort to realize what others truly see. I think she consciously blocks that out and does what's best for the campaign in her father's eyes more than her own.

29. A "good person" who hypocritically takes Kerry to task
for bringing up her sexuality, but not David Letterman (when book sales are involved)?

She's just like Daddy. A money-grubbing hypocritical sycophant.

8. Caller asks about the "cheap political ploy" of Rethugs always bringing
out anti-gay measures. Mary responds that many Democrats as well as Rethugs were shocked that Kerry mentioned her sexual orientation in the '04 election. Yeah, Mary, that answered the viewer's question!:sarcasm:

10. "it's hard not to respect someone like Joe Lieberman"
Edited on Sat May-20-06 09:09 AM by librechik
But Edwards is evil, just a trickster out to "get Cheney"

They are all about team sports crap, aren't they? My Team Right or Wrong.

26. Isn't it creepy? She's the worst of both parents.
The arrogance. The aggressive and patronizing body language. The smug superiority. The complete absence of any visible sign of compassion or empathy. Sneering sarcasm as the sole substitute for 'humor.' Antagonism dripping from evey pore - like every other person on earth is merely a domestic in her household, owing her subservience. I'm able to envisiion her as nothing other than the spoiled progeny of the plantation owner, condescendingly parading among the slaves.

16. Mary: "We don't have the luxury of concentrating on gay marriage"
as long as terra-terra-terra threatens us. BUT THE RETHUGS HAVE THE LUXURY OF USING IT AS A WEDGE ISSUE, HMMM?

25. That was my Thought
I understand not being a "one issue" voter. But when your party uses your "one issue" as a ploy, how do you support them? There are certainly many issues I don't agree with within my party, but if my party was using "my" issue to manipulate, I would have to re-evaluate my party.

23. Does anyone really care? She's just hawking her book.
The less people who watch her or pay attention the better. She's the daughter of an incredibly evil man and a stepford mom. She cannot come to grip with her gayness and/or being the scion (scionette??) of Republican royalty. I'd almost feel sorry for her but there are too many more important issues to concentrate on. As soon as the book is on the remainder table (which will probably be next week) Mary will disappear again. The Cheney we should be worrying about and discussing is her father. Mary is just a bore and a pain in the butt. Dad is pure evil and is actually affecting our country and our lives.
