Liz Cheney Said What?

By Baxter

Coincidental with the announcement that Ruth Bader Ginsburg will be the first Supreme Court Justice to conduct a same-sex marriage, the Senate-candidate daughter of the Worst Person Who's Ever Lived (If Indeed He Were A Person) has rushed out with a completely gratuitous statement against marriage equality.

We cats wonder, why? Liz Cheney's sister Mary is married to her same-sex partner, and their father, the Worst Person, etc. (otherwise known as Dick Cheney), has already expressed his support for gay marriage. Plus, we don't see how being anti-gay buys you a ton of votes in Wyoming, since that famously independent state already has a lesbian Democrat serving in Cheyenne.

But, aha. The Cheney campaign alleges that a sinister push poll has cast Lizzie as pro-abortion and pro-homosexual-agenda. So she had to come out with this very strong statement in favor of "family values."

Wait — what? Liz Cheney is trailing the incumbent Republican Senator, Mike Enzi, by 28 points. Who in the world would fund a push poll against her? She's already toast.

We cats think that, like everything else connected with la famille Cheney, this push poll is a nefarious ruse. Stay tuned. In the meantime, we cats HISS.

Sounds to me like a sibling rivalry issue. An attack on her gay sister. Poor Liz is a kind of a ogress anyway, so it makes perfect sense that she would need to express her negative views about gay marriage.
