Mary Cheney Donates to Anti-Gay Candidate
Mary Cheney, who is openly gay and raising two children with another woman, has given $500 to New Hampshire Senate candidate Kelly Ayotte, who is "against same-sex marriage and believes marriage is between a man and a woman."
Raw Story‘s Sahil Kapur reports that Mary Cheney, who is openly gay and raising two children with another woman, has given $500 to New Hampshire Senate candidate Kelly Ayotte, who is “against same-sex marriage and believes marriage is between a man and a woman.”
From this, I can only conclude:
- Mary Cheney is a Republican
- Gay marriage is not the only issue on her radar
Other explanations are welcome.
Being against same-sex marriage does not make a person anti-gay. It means that he/she believe that marriage involves one man and one woman only. Perhaps Mary Cheney agrees with that position.
Does that work for an alternative explanation?
“Being against same-sex marriage does not make a person anti-gay. It means that he/she believe that marriage involves one man and one woman only. Perhaps Mary Cheney agrees with that position.”
Since this isn’t her father’s position I have no idea why it would be hers as well.
I wonder how many black people in the 50s gave donations to politicians who were in favor of segregation…to those who did, maybe segregation wasn’t the only thing on their radar…
