CHENEY CALLS BLITZER QUESTION ON DAUGHTER'S PREGNANCY 'OUT OF LINE' Wed Jan 24 2007 13:41:22 ET
In an interview taped to air for today's 'Situation Room' on CNN, Vice President Cheney responded sharply to anchor Woilf Blitzer's line of questioning regarding the pregancy of Cheney's lesbian daughter:
Blitzer: Your daughter Mary, she's pregnant. All of us are happy. She's going to have a baby. You're going to have another grandchild. Some of the -- some critics, though, are suggesting, for example, a statement from someone representing Focus on the Family:
"Mary Cheney's pregnancy raises the question of what's best for children. Just because it's possible to conceive a child outside of the relationship of a married mother and father, doesn't mean it's best for the child."
Do you want to respond to that?
THE VICE PRESIDENT: No, I don't.
Blitzer: She's obviously a good daughter --
VICE PRESIDENT: I'm delighted -- I'm delighted I'm about to have a sixth grandchild, Wolf, and obviously think the world of both of my daughters and all of my grandchildren. And I think, frankly, you're out of line with that question.
Blitzer: I think all of us appreciate --
VICE PRESIDENT: I think you're out of -- I think you're out of line with that question.
Blitzer: -- your daughter. We like your daughters. Believe me, I'm very, very sympathetic to Liz and to Mary. I like them both. That was just a question that's come up and it's a responsible, fair question.
VICE PRESIDENT: I just fundamentally disagree with your perspective.
Developing...
Somebody blitz Wolf.
Did he punch him out of his chair then?
Please say yes.
Good for the VP , it is about time he tells those libs on cnn to back off. Good job I hope this guy goes hunting with Cheney.
Wolf is a piece of crap Democratic Hack.
If he were to interview Rosie O' Fat's father he would never ask questions about his grandchildren.
I love Dick Cheney. No BS from him.
My question is why would Dick Cheney share the same air with that feckless weasel?
Sounds like Cheney just did. Blitzer should be careful - Cheney has in the past shot people!
Stop being so thin skinned, Mister VP.
Me too.
And Lynne CHeney. They really seem like a good match.
Last night, Cheney could not lean anymore away from Pelosi without draping himself over the arm of the chair, lol.
*Check this out * PING!
i thot the left always thot that personal lives were supposed to be personal see:billclinton and monica lewinsky
LOL!!
"Wolf, what do you say we talk about that over a good round of goose hunting?"
Well dang. Maybe I could go into politics after all. I thought I was disqualified because about half the time my answer on personal questions would be "None of your beeswax, Nosy!"
I wish more GOP politicans would stand up to the media.
The only people who seem to do it are both Dick and Lynne Cheney.
If our people started doing this more often, I wonder how often we could continue to hear ridiculous "questions" like the one Blitzer was trying to ask.
Thanks...Cheney on NOW!
