Isn't This Rich?!?


Isn't this like the pot calling the kettle black?!?


Lynne Cheney Responds to Kerry's Remarks After Debate (washingtonpost.com)



Lynne V. Cheney, wife of Vice President Cheney, accused John F. Kerry Wednesday night of "a cheap and tawdry political trick" and said he "is not a good man" after he brought up their daughter's homosexuality at the final presidential debate.

Mary Cheney, one of the vice president's two daughters and an official of the Bush-Cheney campaign, has been open about her lesbian status. The candidates were asked if they believe homosexuality is a choice, and Bush did not mention Mary Cheney. Then Kerry said, "If you were to talk to Dick Cheney's daughter, who is a lesbian, she would tell you that she's being who she was, she's being who she was born as."

[...]

Kerry's running mate, Sen. John Edwards, also raised the sexual orientation of Cheney's daughter during the vice presidential debates. Republicans complained that it was an underhanded way of trying to hurt the Bush-Cheney ticket with religious conservatives.



No... the Republicans would never do anything underhanded, would they?
