Cheney Says He Supports Gay-Marriage Ban

Vice President Dick Cheney said Tuesday he supports President Bush's call for a federal constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriages, though one of his daughters is gay



This is another example of that persistent liberal double standard.

If a conservative comes out against something that he, or a member of his family, has not personally experienced the conservative is told "you have no experience with this. You can't judge."

But if a conservative comes out against something he has personal experience with (either himself or through a member of his family), he is told "you are a hypocrite."

Essentially, the point seems to be that liberals think that conservatives should not be allowed to express their opinions at any time whatsoever.
