On a Serious Note: They Really Are Loathsome

I made a crack about Mary Cheney in the captions.

But when you think about it, it isn't funny, it is sad.

The whole family was down on that stage, Dick, Lynne, Elizabeth and her husband, four grandchildren, including a mere infant.

Their other child Mary was up in the bleachers.

Here is the picture again, notice the REAL captioning:

Mary Cheney, left, daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney, sits with an unidentified guest in Madison Square Garden during the Republican National Convention in New York, Wednesday, Sept. 1, 2004.

"Unidentified Guest"? - good work SCLM. Is that the identification Ed Gillespie required?

Meanwhile, this again is the picture on the floor, with the real caption:


U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney (second from left) waves from the stage with his family (L-R) daughter Liz Cheney Perry holding grandson Phillip Richard Perry, granddaughter Elizabeth Perry, granddaughter Kate Perry, wife Lynne, granddaughter Grace Perry, and son-in-law Phil Perry.
The Cheney's have 2 KIDS, Elizabeth and Mary. That is it.

Now, I suppose it's possible that Mary chose not to come down...but it is at least as likely she was told that she should not, especially with her lover.

Dissing your kids for political reasons.

Classy!
