Dick Cheney is running a classic double standard with one official set of moral rules and one inofficial that applies to himself and his family. Goes for owning Haliburton stocks as well as his daughters pregnancy visavi the GWB official policies regarding same sex marriage etc. Nothing new, the only news is that after the neocons took over the White House they´re doing it all without shame. They´re stealing, lying, killing in the open.
I love how Rush Limbaugh can slander Michael J. Fox and Bill O'Reilly can run around constantly demeaning someone like Cindy Sheehan because they're "in the public eye" but THIS question is out of line?
You know damn well he CAN'T answer this question. It just shows Cheney has been reduced to placating his only supporters left, the religious right. Even at the expense of defending his own daughter against them.
And Blitzer is a pussy! This is all we can expect from the corporate media anymore.
How bout Diane Feinstein? As a member of the Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee, Sen. Feinstein voted for appropriations worth billions to her husband's firms. POT. KETTLE. BLACK.
why are people taking cheney's side? he and his daughter are very public figures and are subject to tough questions. especially since his daugher chose to go public with her pregnancy announcement. she didn't have to. cheney can't defend himself here because he's afraid to speak up about gay rights. so instead he just says the question is unfair. frankly, i hope he gets that question in every interview he does until he gives a full, logical answer.
i feel bad for cheney on this. he works for an administration that basically sub-citizenized his own daughter, and i honestly think he disagrees with the administration he helps run on this issue, but he obviously can't fall on the other side publicly. i think when his job ends (obviously he isn't running for any election), you'll see he will fall on the other side of this issue by book or something
How ironic, the people who basically got Chaney in the oval office are now criticizing his daughter's life style. FoF can't keep their bigited mouths shut and Chaney can't take the criticism. I love the look he gave to Blitzer,reminds me of Darth Vader in the first movie when he chokes that one guy from far away.
As much as I can't stand the man, that was a very good answer to the question. Also the stare of death he gave the person who asked it at the end was great :D
Dick Cheney was right in everything he said there (Clinton should learn a thing or two on how to handle questions that deliberatly try to provoke a negative reaction from Cheney)...
I think Cheney is on the evil side, but I do agree that this question is completely out of line, I cant belive Wolf Blitzer stooped that low, and I'm not saying that I am for, or against childern to gay couples, thats nobodys business but the people involved
the question wasn't an attack on Cheney's daughter: it was an attack on "Focus on the Family."
By refusing to disagree with the FoF comments, he passed up a golden opportunity to say "my daughter will be a great parent. I have all the faith in the world that this is true."
Yup, gay marriage & gay people having kids is bad unless a republican's daughter is gay. Abortion is bad unless a republican's daughter needs one. Cheney is a dumbass hypocrite.
I commmpletely agree... cheney is a douche bag politican, but congrats for defending his family. I'm surprised cheney didnt smack wolf across the head...
lol, an inner battle all conservitives must fight - sexuality, morality, homosexuality, and pedophilia. frankly, looks like it is an uphill battle, ROFL!
My guess is that even though Cheney is most likely against homosexuality, he's accepted his daughter and doesn't want to disrespect her. And the question was out of line because that's too personal.
Wrong DKL79! Blitzer gave Cheney one more chance in life to stop being a pig and a coward about having a gay child. Bottom line, Cheney is a disgusting unhappy idiot in the midst of a failed admin and corrupion charges... Yes- I am the best!!
a leftist talking head hiding behind the old "some critics say" routine. This kind of dishonest crud has been going on since the 60's. Being a liberal means that you have no moral base to stand on, or abide by.
Wow Sirjames45! I want to congradulate you on having another brainfart! Brainfarts are something that you and your conservative base have become very good at in the last 6 years! Yes- I am the best!!
This is just a distraction. Get on with the real problems, scams and lies this guy is involved in. Who cares about what his daughter does. She isn't VP.
Judging by the look in Cheneys eyes Blitzer should be glad Cheney didn't have that shotgun.Damn that was was one ice cold from an evil evil man, and Blitzer actually looked and sounded scared.
Cheney is a pretty intimidating guy. He shot his best friend for food and outed a CIA agent because her husband wrote a critical op-ed about false information released by the White House in the run up to the Iraq War. He'd be great as character on the Sopranos. Too bad he's our vice.
It is a valid question to pose to Cheney, considering that his political success is largely due to the support of gay-hating religious zealots like FoF. This was his opportunity to either support his daughter and distance himself from these people, or just come out and say that he disagrees with his daughter's sexuality/lifestyle. Instead, he attacks the interviewer and says that the question is out of line. It isn't the question that's out of line - it's your continued hypocrisy.
It's a fair question. Cheney CAN'T answer it, and then gets pissed because Wolf is asking it. When you're an arrogant bully in power & you hate the message, blame the messenger without dealing with the content. If Dick looked at his party's position forcing him to hold two VERY opposing views, he would see his immense hypocrisy...
It was a fair question but a difficult one for cheney to address because of the obvious conflict of interest bewteen his beliefs and his real life. It would have been ineteresting to hear him answer it.
Um...no. Focus on the Family is the one out of line. Obviously Cheney either agrees with FotF or he doesn't have the spine enough to assert that he can't think of a better environment for his 6th grandchild to be raised in than in the loving care of his daughter and her partner. What a jerk.
Also embarrising to see how Wolf backs off, he looks completely scared of Cheney and fails as a journalist. Tragic to say the least.
