As conservative as former Vice President Dick Cheney is, there’s one issue on which he’s been quite progressive: marriage equality. In fact, Cheney supported same-sex marriage as far back as 2000, when the vast majority of politicians in both parties were still publicly opposed to the idea.
As Cheney said in 2004, “freedom means freedom for everyone” to enter “into any kind of relationship they want to.”
His daughter Liz Cheney, running for the U.S. Senate in Wyoming, apparently disagrees.
Liz Cheney flatly declared on Friday that she is “not pro-gay marriage.”
Cheney, a Republican running for the U.S. Senate in Wyoming, made the policy statement after accusing the campaign of incumbent Republican Sen. Mike Enzi of distorting her views on the subject through a campaign push poll.
