Cheney is for same-sex marriage, he needs to take a good look in the mirror and figure out what happened in his marriage to cause his daughter to become a lesbo.
There's nothing admiral in encouraging your daughter to live a life of perversion and to corrupt innocents in that process.

(checks wikipedia and a few other places) Hum, so he is. Good for him that he loves his daughter more than his politics. Or maybe it's that now he knows gay people can be completely ordinary, he's not willing to see them as monsters.
Maybe this means the best way to get the homophobia out of the fundies is to actually get them to *meet* a few gay people without knowing it, let them become good friends, and *then* tell them. Sneaky, I know, but they wouldn't welcome them as people otherwise.
@Ken
Yes, Admiral Crunch.
Er... what? No. No. NO. FUCK NO. Nothing "happened in his marriage" to "cause" his daughter to be a lesbian. Sexuality doesn't work that way!
There is EVERYTHING admirable in supporting your child, no matter their choice of partner.
@Kitourahime -- *sings off key* Can anybody find me / somebody to love?
Nothing admiral, hmmm. There's a major discrepancy in his general demeanor concerning other peoples' private parts. I suggest corporal punishment.
@ shykid
He's like Dial soap. 99 44/100% pure
Um, no, there's nothing that "happens" in a marriage that makes offspring gay.
And being supportive is quite admirable, as opposed to condemning your child for being who he/she is. "Corrupt innocents?" Oh right, gays are secretly running around enticing young children to become gay just like them. :eyeroll smiley:
I seriously hope that you have a gay son/daughter so you can ask yourself in the mirror what happened in your marriage to cause them to become gay.
Am I the only person that thinks it's insanely fucked up to wish a gay child on a homophobic parent?
Yeah, it would teach them a lesson, all right. It would teach them how to throw their child out of the house and create yet another statistic.
"There's nothing admiral in encouraging your daughter to live a life of perversion and to corrupt innocents in that process."
Absolutely correct! Oh, except that has nothing to do with having a lesbian daughter.
Apparently the poster has failed to realise that the late President, Ronald Reagan's son, Michael is gay...?(Oops, I forgot, the poster's a Freeper, & the Freeper position on Ronald Reagan, I suspect, was that the Sun effectively shone out of a certain part of his anatomy...).
The only thing I get out of this is that Mr. Cheney isn't really completely evil, just mostly.
As for you, there is absolutely nothing admiral [sic ] about being an irrational, hate-filled bigot who wants to demonize and ostracize a harmless minority because of his own misgivings--and attempting to do so by manipulating people with loaded and emotionally charged language like "they're corrupting innocents!!!!1", no less.
@Robbie:
Or, they could actually be human and realize that family bonds are stronger than homophobia. And maybe with a homosexual in the family they'll learn that gay people are just like everyone else, they just have a different sexual orientation. And maybe, just maybe, they'll learn that homosexuality isn't "a choice."
What happened in your parents' marriage to cause you to become such a hate-filled little self-righteous pustule?
There's nothing Admiral, Maytag, or Whirlpool in encouraging your offspring to live a life of prejudice and bigotry.
This reminds me of a cartoon that I once read:
Parents: "What did we do to turn you into a lesbian?"
Daughter: "Why should you get the credit?"
@Doubting ThomasI seriously hope that you have a gay son/daughter so you can ask yourself in the mirror what happened in your marriage to cause them to become gay.
You're funny. Surely you know if HIS kid turned out to be gay/lesbian, it would be society's fault, the school system's fault, the evil media's fault, the recruiting homos' fault, the Space Pope's fault, the Easter Bunny's fault, Harry Potter's fault....everybody's fault BUT his.
Dick Cheney is FOR same-sex marriage?!
Dick "Bomb everyone who isn't a Christian Fundie like me and Geroge W." Cheney?
Did I just wake up in Bizarro World, or something?
@G. Fieendish
Mike Reagan is gay?! 'Cause from the Wikipedia entry on him it doesn't sound that way. He was divorced once, remarried and sounds like he's definitely against same-sex marriage. He is the adoptive son of Jane Wymann and Ronnie Raygun (his first marriage) and currently hosts a conservative radio show with over 1 million listeners.
Check out this article on him:

Pretty much sums up his attitudes and beliefs. Defintely not gay.
Cheney is for same-sex marriage
Huh, this is the only redeeming quality I find in him. Otherwise, he's just evil incarnate.
admiral
Didn't know we were in the Navy all of a sudden. :-) I think the word you meant is admirable.
encouraging your daughter to live a life of perversion
Kids grow up and live their own lives. Boo fucking hoo if you don't like that she turned out to be a lesbian. It's none of your fucking business and your opinion that it's a perversion is just that, your opinion.
corrupt innocents
So you should be railing the same way against every alcohol or cigarette ad because those "corrupt" the young most certainly.
Cheney is for same-sex marriage, he needs to take a good look in the mirror and figure out what happened in his marriage to cause his daughter to become a lesbo.
Wait Cheney and I agree on something? It's truly the sign that he isn't pure, unadulterated, evil.
But really, good for Cheney. It means he loves his daughter. Also he did nothing in his marriage to make his daughter want to spend her life with another woman.
There's nothing admiral in encouraging your daughter to live a life of perversion and to corrupt innocents in that process.
There is nothing admiral in wanting to treat humans as second class citizens by wrongly treating them as sub human.
what happened in his marriage to cause his daughter to become a lesbo.
Yeah, that's uh, not really how it works.
"what happened in his marriage to cause his daughter to become a lesbo."
I'd be more interested in seeing you figure out why both his daughters aren't. I mean, they were raised in the same family, right?
God: Cheney you know that I am not pleased with you.
Cheney: Is this because of the torture thing?
God: No. You were okay with giving gay people equal rights.
Ah Dick Cheney, technically to the left of the serving Democratic President on several positions. Also apparently an Admiral.
I am truly living in Bizaro Universe.
Absolutely! Nothing admiral about it, at all.
If it was admiral, someone would have mentioned it.
Does Ted Haggard's parents have to look in a mirror to figure out why he is gay? Silly. Just plain silly.
And..... using military rank (admiral) in place of "admirable" sounds every bit as stupid as your sins-of-the-parents idiocy. It is very hard to give intellectual credence to somebody that doesn't know that difference.
"There's nothing admiral in encouraging your daughter to live a life of perversion and to corrupt innocents in that process"
Yes, he should be ensigned of himself. He should talk to his daughter and commander to like seamen.
(Sorry, couldn't resist)In the Navy with homosexuality....)
Step right up, folks. Our next event is the "Real Conservatives" vs. the GOP.
The betting line is even odds and no winner is projected. People in the front row are urged to bring plastic sheets so they don't get blood all over them.
Seriously though. I think that we Americans are witnessing the death of a political party for the first time in a very long time. The Tories and Whigs are finally going to have some company on the scrap-heap of failed political ideology.
Somehow I don't think he is for gay marriage so much as he believes that you shouldn't condemn your family members for the way they are.
Then again, we're talking freepers here. In their world of false dichotomies, if you don't condemn your gay/lesbian child, then that automatically means that you support gay marriage.
I say that because I find it hard to believe that Dick Cheney of all people would support gay marriage. The only good quality about the man is that he didn't let his politics get in the way and accepts his daughter for who she is. Then again, it seems the right wing has gone so FAR over to the right that George W Bush and Dick Cheney are now viewed as "too liberal" to the freepers.
1)Sexual orintation doesn't work that way.
"Cheney is for same-sex marriage, he needs to take a good look in the mirror..."
Assuming he can see his own reflection...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
