Mary Cheney's a what?!

Oh my god. I've supported Kerry for months, even before the Dean scream. But it's over. Over, I tell ya. Why? Because he did a cheap and tawdry thing. He went and outed poor Mary Cheney, calling her a Lesbion.

Here she's spent all these years hiding in shame, fearful that some cheap and tawdry politician will use her secret secsual proclivities to advance same politician's career during an election campaign. Use her and her hidden desires to make himself look warm, fuzzy, and attractive to undecideds who otherwise think his boss is a scumbag who wants to enshrine discrimination of a minority group in the U.S. Konstitution.

“Lynne and I have a gay daughter, so it’s an issue our family is very familiar with,” Cheney told an audience that included his daughter. “With the respect to the question of relationships, my general view is freedom means freedom for everyone. ... People ought to be free to enter into any kind of relationship they want to.

Cheap. Tawdry.

KERRY: We're all God's children, Bob. And I think 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.
