sorry if this is a dupe - this exchange reveals lots about Liz Cheney

[closeupready]

and what kind of sister she is, in my opinion.

>> The simmering feud between the daughters of former Vice President Dick Cheney over same sex marriage has reignited on social media.

Mary Cheney and her wife Heather Poe took to Facebook to express their disappointment after Liz Cheney - a GOP candidate for Senate in Wyoming - repeated her opposition to same sex marriage during a television interview.

---------------------

"Liz has been a guest in our home, has spent time and shared holidays with our children, and when Mary and I got married in 2012 - she didn't hesitate to tell us how happy she was for us," Poe wrote on the social media site. "To have her now say she doesn't support our right to marry is offensive to say the least."

During an interview on Fox News Sunday, the elder Cheney sister said she believes in the "traditional definition of marriage," adding that she loves her sister and her family. <<

Liz and Mary were raised as sisters.

Heather is Mary's family.

Liz refuses to recognize Heather as Mary's wife, and I guess family, too.

So many levels of WTF here.

I support Mary Cheney and Heather Poe on this 'disagreement'.

1. yep. says a whole lot about a family of nasty. what liz did is so in character

with her father and mother. just mean and nasty, dishonest.

7. If she really wants to be a Senator, what about being brave,

and fighting for an unpopular (for Wyoming) kind of issue, particularly one that impacts her own family? That's what I can't figure out.

9. they are not nice people. nasty people think differently than the average, normal nice person.

a nasty person gets a kick out of being nasty. a nice person feels bad being nasty. that is why nice people have such a tough time figuring out the why.

look at nasty mom. she was just flat out nasty during the kerry campaign and you could see she liked being nasty.

2. And Sonny Bono, when he became a congresscritter, pretty much threw Chastity

under the bus...they weren't speaking at the time of his death.

8. Oh, I wasn't aware Chaz and he had had a falling out.

3. Darth Cheney has both light and dark, and spawns Mary and Liz. Sounds like a movie plot. n/t

4. It's All About Saying What You Have To In Order To Get Elected These Days.....nt

12. That's what I was thinking too. Liz Cheney's comments play well in WY.

I wouldn't be surprised if this "family feud" wasn't intentionally aired by the Cheney family to give Liz "creds" with her RWNJ base in WY.

It helps to offset her "carpet bagger" image.... by emphasizing her RWNJ "bigoted hater" creds.

5. Liz is a two faced piece of work... wow... to be raised in that kind of nastiness

[William769]

6. Liz is anti-family.

No surprise there.

10. I can put up with a lot of shit from my family, shit I wouldn't tolerate

from anyone else. But I wouldn't put up with them not recognizing my marriage as valid. There's no compromising over something like that.

11. R#5 & K for, bwah-ha-HAH, the CHEENEE hatefulness turning in on itself!!!!! n/t

[EC]

13. She's throwing her sister over and won't gain a thing from it

other than bad will for her future relationship with her sister, spouse and kids. She's not going to win the election and she has to know that already... I just don't know what she's thinking.
