I received these comments from a mailing list I'm on, I wanted to share as I completely agree!


Did anyone see Frank Rich's piece in the NY Times yesterday? I
couldn't
help myself, I went to look at the excerpts from Lynne Cheney's book on
the White House website. Is it weird that this is on there, or what?
Here's the section I'm referring to:
"From all the outcry over Mr. Kerry's invocation of Ms. Cheney, with
the
attendant rhetoric about the evil of exploiting a candidate's "child"
in a
campaign, you might never guess that the child in question is not
Chelsea
Clinton at age 12 but a 35-year-old woman (two years older than Andrea
Mackris). Or that she lives openly with her partner, Heather Poe, whom
she
brought onstage after the vice presidential debate. Or that she is the
paid director of vice presidential operations for the Bush campaign,
and
that her mother is the author of a notorious potboiler ("Sisters,"
1981)
that drools over the prospect of lesbian coupling with O'Reilly-like
glee.
(For choice excerpts from Mrs. Cheney's fiction, go to [

For the full article:

Frank Rich: The O'Reilly Factor for Lesbians
New York Times
October 24, 2004

In the annals of election year 2004, Oct. 13 will be
remembered as the day it rained lesbians in red America.
