I love Liz Cheney. She should be at the top of the list of leaders to rebuild the Republican party. She is always coherent and calm under duress and, most importantly, she wins the debate of ideas. She is part of the answer we need.

Those who like to attack Cheney, especially on personal character, need only look at this lady in action to determine what kind of father Cheney was. She is poised, extremely bright, forthright, disciplined, focused, and completely in command.

That doesn’t happen by accident. She’s an outstanding commentator and analyst, quite attractive, and not at all unpleasant. She could fill a whole bunch of different roles in our political dialogue.

I don’t think that platypus cares who in the Cheney family is gay or not. He just knows that one of the daughters is gay and receives the love and support of her parents and sister.

Actually, I don’t care who is “gay” or who isn’t. It’s the public approval her famous family provides that I take issue with.

Dick and Lynn Cheney did not have to show publicly just how shallow their family morality is by celebrating one of their children deliberately creating a child to be fatherless.

Everything about a person is affected by whatever morals the person has. Dick and Lynn tarnished themselves by refusing to stay silent in the face of Mary’s amazingly disrespectful behavior. Being a sexual deviant whose family loved her wasn’t enough for her. She had to go farther.

She should have been publicly rebuked by her parents. They failed the character test, and indirectly stained Liz by showing that acting out is what gets mommy’s and daddy’s attention in the Cheney family.

Pathetic. Sad. And the most helpless one had no say.

Liz Cheney is not gay. It is her sister Mary. Please attempt to get your facts straight before trolling. Such laziness adds insult to stupidity. – ILB on May 13, 2009 at 8:27 PM

(Not a compliment.)

Liz Cheney, on the other hand, is very good at this sort of thing. She keeps on topic, refuses to be talked over, and makes her point no matter what. Very impressive.

Isn’t she the sexual deviant who supports same-sex marriage? If so, what self-respecting member of the base would be willing to follow her? – platypus on May 13, 2009 at 1:05 PM

I guess that you have similar feelings about Dick Cheney?

“fashionable for us to side, really, with the terrorists.

Let’s take a poll. I’ll bet most folks would agree with this sentiment. Let the media sieze on that.

I agree. Her “performance” on Morning Joe was as solid and factual as anything I have seen from anyone not named “Cheney” in years.

She eviscerated Robinson.

Her best statement is at 3:20 when she talks about the White House editing Blair’s remarks for public consumption. The point flies right over Robinson’s head.

Is anyone else disgusted that the media feels it’s ok to call our most recent VP a “crazy old coot” IN FRONT OF HIS DAUGHTER?

I guess shame is only meant to exist for California beauty queens.

We’re sadly used to liberals and their behavior , but i like here counter story about how she crashed her dad’s car when she was 16 and he was cool as Cheney.

Agreed. I wonder if she’d consider running for Senate?
