Exclusive: Mary Cheney marries longtime partner Heather Poe
The Daily Caller ^ | 6/22/2012 | Alex Pappas

Posted on 06/22/2012 11:31:31 AM PDT by LonelyCon

Mary Cheney, the openly gay daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, has married her long-time partner Heather Poe, The Daily Caller has learned.

Cheney spokeswoman Kara Ahern confirmed to TheDC that the couple married Friday morning in Washington, D.C.

In a statement provided to TheDC, both the former vice president and his wife, Lynne, said they are “delighted” the couple could have their “relationship recognized.”

“Our daughter Mary and her long time partner, Heather Poe, were married today in Washington, DC,” the Cheneys said.

Poe and Mary Cheney have two children: Cheney gave birth to a son in 2007, and a daughter in 2009. They live together in Virginia.

“Mary and Heather have been in a committed relationship for many years, and we are delighted that they were able to take advantage of the opportunity to have that relationship recognized,” the Cheneys said. “Mary and Heather and their children are very important and much loved members of our family and we wish them every happiness.”

“We are all so happy for Heather and Mary and their beautiful kids,” friend and former Cheney adviser Mary Matalin told TheDC. “Happy and moved by the blessing of their commitment and strength.”

I’m with you. I really shouldn’t even read these threads.
It’s upsetting. I believe there should be way for them to
legally connect thats not marriage. And i took my cue from
my gay friends who also feel that way.

The Cheneys are a terrific family and i wish them ALL every
happiness and continue to pray for Dick Cheneys health.

Actually, no she didn’t, but if she wants to think that then we can’t legally stop her.

Good thing God’s opinion on this is the only one that matters.

Did I say that? Umm...no. What is your point?

I didn't say that you said anything...it was just a question, and it appears that you aren't interested in answering it. Fine. Have a nice day.

“Obama Asks People Getting Married To Forgo Gifts, Ask Their Guests To Donate To His Campaign Instead”

“Apparently their means of laundering a donation to Obama.”

It’s ALL about Obama, your wedding, your baby’s birth, your anniversary, your birthday, it’s all about Obama, send him all your presents, your cash,....because it is all about Obama. Obama is a narcissist, yes, but what do we call the enablers that support the narcissist and enable the narcissism?

See even this posting about Cheney turned into something about Obama.

I love Dick Cheney, and hate to say it, but I draw the line at kids. If she and her partner wanted to live alone it’s one thing. But the research shows now, it’s a bad deal for the kids, which will not get them any sympathy from me. (Dick is another story, God bless him).

If I carried a latent viral infection, which would make any dog I had mildly sick, I wouldn’t have any dogs, ever. I’d rather know that the dogs I would have had, were healthy and loved elswhere. Why people don’t feel this way with their own kids is beyond me.

Mary Cheney needs help, and no one appears to be the slightest bit interested in providing that help...wonder why? By the way; the owner of this website opposes the sodomite agenda.

I wish them happiness.

Duh...of course they are happy, they are GAY.

It is sad when a bunch of pervs steal a perfectly good word.

Maybe it would be better for some on this thread to close their computers and pick up their Bible and read it!

Homosexuals don’t fare well with our GOD! I think he thinks it is an abomination.

As with any sin, this one included, one must repent(s and turn away from their sin(s) to be forgiven.

You know, it’s really none of my business what other people do. What a hard life to lead when you’re not comfortable in your own skin.

I’ve always wondered what I would do if it were one of my children. I just Thank God that they’re both hetro.
