This is actually a point to really knock Cheney himself on. He's to the right of Attila the Hun on just about everything. But, because his daughter is gay, that's the one issue he takes a liberal stance on? It shoots a giant hole in his credibility and just gives ammo to the pro-gay agenda.
A politician who's a hypocrite? Say it ain't so .
But all kidding aside, you're right. Cheney looks terribly inconsistent here. Because as you said, the guy is basically to the right of Attila the Hun.
