what other position could he take? there are plenty of parents out there who cling to homophobia even tho their children are homosexual. it's certainly not always accepted. far from it.
i remember a few years back a woman told a story about her daughter coming out to her. she was about 17-18 years old. the woman did nothing but constanly hound her daughter to change. her girl committed suicide at about age 24. that woman said she has to live with what happened the rest of her life, and said if she could go back and change things, she would. she knows full well if she hadn't acted as she did, her daughter would still be here. hell of a lesson to learn.
i applaud cheney for going against the party platform in that regard. honestly, i think it's about time many other moderate republicans started doing the same! past time really.
