"Kerry is defending his declaration of Mary Cheney's sexual orientation by saying he was trying to be sensitive:" Kerry could have been more "sensitive" if he had referred to fellow democrats such as: Barney Frank Jim McGreavey (has he formally resigned yet?) Chrissy Gephardt...Dick Gephardt's daughter Lynn Cheney was right in referring to Kerry as a "bad man". Kerry has lots of company in the US Senate...Kennedy, Daschle, Levin, Reid, Schummer, Corizine, Edwards and on and on and on. There are a couple of bad women in there as well.

<Kerry says he was trying to be positive. He says he was trying to point out what strong families do. What he did instead was anger a huge number of people. What we saw in Kerry's comments about Mary Cheney was the extent his diplomatic skill in miniature. And his diplomacy was a miserable failure.> Lindy, those people would have been offended by Kerry if he'd said "Good Morning". They are just itching to be mortified, insulted, demeaned and otherwise maltreated by a person they wish to portray as everything negative. You are letting your bias, prejudice and interests get in the way of your thinking. Or, maybe you don't believe what you are saying, in which case your integrity, integrity, integrity is lacking. Republicans are anti-poofter and the fact is their own offspring are messing up their theme. Pointing it out to them and suggesting that their love, respect and protection of their own queer families is just what other people want for their's isn't offensive. When somebody is in direct opposition, it's not a matter of diplomacy. King George II can't make Osama love him, even with lots of diplomacy. It's Jihad and Osama is out to get him, diplomatic niceties or not. Speaking cutesy to Osama won't make him unoffended, unangry etc. He wants to kill! So does Dick Cheney [he wants to kill Kerry's chances]. Mqurice

See what I mean about Republicans/Cheney, wanting to be offended: cnn.com <WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The head of the nation's largest gay and lesbian Republican group slammed fellow Republicans Friday for "feigning outrage" over comments by Sen. John Kerry, and called on President Bush to "stop attacking gay families on the campaign trail." Patrick Guerriero, executive director of the Log Cabin Republicans, said Democratic presidential nominee Kerry was "not wise" to refer to the daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney during the answer to a question about homosexuality during a presidential debate Wednesday night. (Special Report: America Votes 2004, the debates) But he said Republicans "who are expressing outrage at the debate comments really have been outrageous themselves." "The reality is the type of outrage that is being expressed by some Republicans should be expressed at themselves. They've decided to use gay families as wedge issues across America in swing states -- that is truly outrageous," he told CNN's "American Morning." The comments come as Republicans continue to criticize Kerry over the mention, and Democrats accuse the Bush-Cheney ticket of trying to create an uproar in order to avoid talking about major issues and Kerry's success in the debate. ... > Republicans are hypocrites. There must be a bible quote against such evil-doing deceitful people. Maybe a religious enthusiast could come up with one. Good Christians should vote for freedom and human rights, which includes for weirdo people like poofters, not just straight-laced Goody-Two-Shoes like Rush "drug-crazed" Limbaugh [who, for all I know, is a tortured Republican homosexual soul, stuck in a straight jacket and deserving of sympathy, not jest]. I bet there are a lot more than skeletons still in the Republican closet. Mqurice

Aye, there's the rub. What we saw in Kerry's comments about Mary Cheney was the extent his diplomatic skill in miniature. And his diplomacy was a miserable failure. Slings and Arrows blog

Kerry is defending his declaration of Mary Cheney's sexual orientation by saying he was trying to be sensitive… …Kerry was trying to show how the Cheney family is the example of a strong family dealing with the issue of homosexuality. Blah, Blah, Blah… Come y’all, if there is anyone on this thread that takes pride in a daughter that is a lesbian, SPEAK UP. Kerry succinctly pointed out that the Conservative Right is no place for gays, and the reaction’s from the Vice Pres. and his wife, confirmed that they have no place in this Republic. My Grandfather once said, “I would rather have a prostitute for a daughter, than a homo for a son,” and the same thought has probably crossed Dicks mind at one time or another. Think about this, we have proof that our Vice President has balls big enough for two men (lil’ George excluded,) and he sounds ashamed. If only I were so fortunate.
