Cheney on marriage:

We'll remind you about what Cheney said in the October 2000 vice presidential debate with Senator Lieberman.

"The — the fact of the matter is we live in a free society, and — and freedom means freedom for everybody. We don't get to choose and shouldn't be able to choose and say, 'You get to live free, but you don't.' And — and I think that means that people should be free to enter into any kind of relationship they want to enter into. It's really no one else's business, in terms of trying to regulate or — or prohibit behavior in that regard." "The next step then, of course, is the question you ask of whether or not there ought to be some kind of official sanction, if you will, of the relationship or if these relationships should be treated the same way a conventional marriage is. That's a tougher problem. That's not a — a slam dunk. I think the fact of the matter, of course, is that matters regulated by the states — I think different states are likely to come to different conclusions, and that's appropriate. I don't think there should necessarily be a federal policy in this area."
