@msaint2326 haha that's funny....oh no....not that.....I meant the part where you think the mainstream media is supposedly held to a standard of "responsible journalism"
@Otaconsps There is no responsible journalism these days. Only what sells.... and while the internet may have made things worse by propagating so much information, at least you now have an opportunity to find truth.
Wolf wasnt intending to ask him about the baby, he was focusing on the anti-gay controversy. Then he backtracked when Cheney got mad. It was a misguided question.
I do not see what the problem is with what Wolf asked. You are about to have a new grandchild shouldnt you be proude of that,,,and SHOW YOUR SUPPORTERS YOUR LOVE OF FAMILY AND VALUES,,,,,.
If I was a gay child I would not want to have Dick Cheney as my dad.
I don't care for either Wolf or Cheney but It's a B.S. question. Wolf is basically asking Cheney how he feels about other people saying it's wrong for gay people to have children. How classless can you get.
I think that Wolf asked a decent question there - even though I wholly disagree with the statement (and I'm pretty sure Mr. Blitzer does too). If Cheney wanted to confront the problem, he should have responded to that.

He used to work for aipac as a gofer before he got this cream puff spot he been milking ! Mainstream media is shit . please everyone give a dollar to " THe Real News network" and "Mosaic"
Wolf had his tail between his legs. Cheney has always had an intimidating arrogance about him, where he is a major party leader of the Rebulican right wing circus with Ring Master Carl Rove and they use right wing "wedge issues", with special emphasis on the dangers of everything "gay" to win election of their President and Vice President, and yet Cheney feels he is so superior that he need not even address the hypocritical contraditions inherent in this situation.
I think the question was out of line. Ladies should be able to become pregnant without discussing their feelings with the news media. Suppose we ask the New Media to explain the Bilderberg Society? They would say "WHAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!" Touche'
Mr. Blitzer has all the right to ask and I want to know.
It' about the Rep. platform, if you can't live by it or allow your family member to do the opposite, Cheney owes an answer not only to the interviewer but to all the Rep. who share the same ideology.
*Home sexuality
*Out of wed-lock pregnancy
*Family value
This couldn't have been a problem for Dem. because it's not their platform, not at least a priority. But it is for the Rep.
I think Wolf Blitzer comes across as very cynical in this interview. He's not really being sympathetic to Mary. He just wants to use the situation to put Dick Cheney in an awkward position. Perhaps it would be fair to question the VP on the conflict between his support for his daughter and his support for FOTF. But to pretend to be concerned and "sympathetic" is insincere. Despicable behaviour!
The Vice President could have showed a little bit more support to her daughter. Keep in mind that she was being abused by right wing bigots for being gay. That`s wrong, and he need to step up for his daughter!
Ha ha ha ha LOL!! Good wolf! I'm really sympathetic too, that bitch needs a dick ! Dick cheney's family has given us the first cloned Baba! ha ha ha ha !
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
people love living in the gutter now a days They want to have the government support them.....give them everything.....and stay out of their obscene business...They have kicked God out of everything......so how do you think these children will grow up?
Wow -- Wolf looked so afraid of him at the end. Cheney is such a PoS. I mean really...his party and his campaign were the staunch advocates of that marriage amendment -- not answering the question was obviously a political calculation and nothing more.
lol...that was funny..and please stop 'feeling sorry for Cheney'...i don't feel sorry for anyone supporting a stupid war and making money off of it with a company that can't even do it's job correctly.
in this instance i agree with 'Focus on the Family'. not because i'm conservative, i'm not. not because i'm republican, i'm not. but because it does indeed take a villiage. i'm not saying a lesbiant or gay man shouldn't have a child, but i'm saying that they should be married or in a life partnership or at least a serious long term relationship.
For the very first time ever, and probably the last, I felt sorry for Dick Cheney. That question is completely unfair and it was a vicious attack by the fundamentalist homophobic agenda. 'Focus on the Family' is a hateful organization.
Rollins talked about this last night at the Rave. Cheney could have answered the question better. He could have said "Rarr rr Rarr love the kids Rarr rr Rarr!"
Fair and direct question about his response to a statement made by an uber conservative group about an uber conservative vice president. His unwillingness to respond speaks volumes about the secrecy, dishonesty, and hypocricy that shrouds this dysfunctional Bush administration. How did these slimes ever make it to the White House.
As much as I dislike Cheney and Bush and all that stupid liberal shit, the question in turn is utterly ridiculous, and I don't blame him for not answering it.
Just because someone is gay, doesn't mean they are an undeemed parent.
If Dick Cheney was a liberal you would all be calling Wolf Blitzer. I don't think Dick Cheney went that far he probably just thought the question was offensive.
What could he say about his Daughter having children with a Turkey Baster?
Het, it all the rage in Hollywierd, why can't we do it too?
It certainly IS possible to raise a child without a Mother or Father! It's just not the best way. I can hope of one foot, but when I use both I can walk and even run!
You should absolutely bring up family matters in an interview with a man who helps run the country you live in. He's the vice president, we have a right to know how he feels about subjects that directly effect us.
I don't think this video clip is all that controversial. I think both Wolf and Cheney are right, in their own ways. I think Wolf's question was perfectly acceptable, and I also think Cheney -- while he overreacted a little bit -- has every right not to answer the question. It's a little sad that it causes so much tension, though.
I don't see how he's out of line asking about his daughter. The gay issue is a huge one in this country and Dick Cheney knows this. I think the question was completely appropriate and asked with sensitivity.
"How dare you question my hypocricy!" He has all the righteous indignation of Penguin from the Batman series. Mary brought herself into public life by writing a book and doing the interview circuit herself (including Wolf Blitzer). And I think it's fair to ask someone to respond on verbal attack on their daughter. The fact that Cheney didn't shows his contempt for her.
You're absolutely right, he has all the indignation a father should have when asked about a private family matter. Wolf shoulf be asking Mary the question, not the VP. There was no contempt by the VP, just respect for his family. WB is a POMPOUS ASS!
So when WB asks about it, it's a "private family matter." But the rest of the time ... it's the end of civilization, we need laws against and preach against it in government and on pulpits. Hypocrite. Double-standard.
Fuck Cheney he is a Loser and "thinks the Question is: out of line," When his administration has continuously bashed Gay Marriage etc..This again proves as we come to end of the worst 8 years of any adminstration what fucking idiots we have had to deal with.
Gay Marriage... its all the administrations fault! So the other 70% of Americans that oppose Gay Marriage are wrong too? Because we don't agree with you, you call it bashing. If you want a civil union and the majority of the public agrees with you, then do it, but do not take the religious sanctity of marriage and ask me to accept it as holy. The bible denounces homosexuality.
The bible should have no bearing on the law. Perhaps, because blacks are minorities, we should put them back in subjugation, not allow them to marry whites, and make them second class citizens again. e_e
'holy' marriage and legal marriage are two different things. we aren't asking the church to accept it, we are asking the government to accept it. you religious folk can keep your morals but the bible should have no sway on government issues. one religion should not rule a country but any means.
If you want there to be a national recognition of marriage to be between any two human beings and the rights and covenants bestowed upon those individuals as such to be equal in all 50 states, and US Territories and it's possessions, then I propose you help sponsor an ammendment to our constitution get it approved by all three branches of the government and then get the 75% of states to ratify that ammendment. Cont. next post.
Dick Cheney is such a hypocrite. Of all the people in politics, he should out support Gay rights, instead he privately supports his daughter and publicly and professionally does everything he can to condemn, marginalize and prevent her from living with dignity. What a despicable hypocrite.
does that make me a hypocrite too? I have a sister that is involved in a lesbian relationship, I do not support her choice of life-style, however I continue to love her. Since when is it a requirement to support gay rights just because there happens to be a member of the gay or lesbian community in one's family?
According to my gay friends, "choice of lifestyle" is terminology invented to marginalize gay persons, and indicate they have chosen to be gay. None of them know exactly what "lifestyle" means in this context. It seems those that know the least about gays...have all the terminology down pat, but not a shred of insight.
When two people in a homosexual life-style can naturally procreate, or any human produces the capacity to asexually reproduce then we can have the debate about choice, behavior and homosexuality... but first brush up on your abnormal psych.
The right to go to work and not worry about losing your job over who it is you love. The right to visit your partner in the hospital, should they fall ill. The right to continue raising your child, that knows no other parent, should the biological one die. Not to mention various and sundry tax and legal breaks.
the right to choose to freely associate and enter into contracts with who they want to.
The whole question of Gay marraige is about freedom of choice. I may not agree with gay marriage, but I believe that gays should be able to marry - if they CHOOSE.
You can argue whether or not CNN has a liberal-bias, but even if such a bias exists, I had not realized "liberal" and "credible" were mutually exclusive.
I believe Blitzer felt compelled to try and get ANY response, negative or whatever, out the VeeP during this interview. If you watch the whole thing Cheney deflected a number of unbiased questions as though he were swatting away flies.
Blitzer was trying to provoke a negative response out of the vice president on this issue. Come on Wolfy you are suppose to be unbiased, if you wanted to congratulate Mr. Cheney on the coming arrival of his sixth grandchild, then leave it at that, say congratulations and get over it. Mary Cheney's life style and metod of conception are not anyones business except hers and her partners.
If the gay community wants their lifestyle to be "normalized" then issues like this one should not even be discussed in such an invasive provacative manner. It should just be matter of fact. Cheney and his family have a right to privacy. He's a great father and American.
What should just be matter of fact? That Cheney is allowed to dodge a question that relates to him both personally and politically? Oh, right, we are talking about the shoot-my-friend-in-the-face-and-then-make-him-apologize, make-my-chief-of-staff-a-scapegoat, lie-repeatedly-about-my-mistakes Vice President.

I believe Blitzer felt compelled to try and get ANY response, negative or whatever, out the VeeP during this interview. If you watch the whole thing Cheney deflected a number of unbiased questions as though he were swatting away flies.

Blitzer was trying to provoke a negative response out of the vice president on this issue. Come on Wolfy you are suppose to be unbiased, if you wanted to congratulate Mr. Cheney on the coming arrival of his sixth grandchild, then leave it at that, say congratulations and get over it. Mary Cheney's life style and metod of conception are not anyones business except hers and her partners.

He was trying to get Cheney's position on alternative lifestyles. Not congradulate him on his new granddaughter.

If the gay community wants their lifestyle to be "normalized" then issues like this one should not even be discussed in such an invasive provacative manner. It should just be matter of fact. Cheney and his family have a right to privacy. He's a great father and American.

What should just be matter of fact? That Cheney is allowed to dodge a question that relates to him both personally and politically? Oh, right, we are talking about the shoot-my-friend-in-the-face-and-then-make-him-apologize, make-my-chief-of-staff-a-scapegoat, lie-repeatedly-about-my-mistakes Vice President.

wow, hellfield04 has some issues. The most interesting thing that blitzer said during this is he is sympathetic... WHY, because she is lesbian?
