TAKE ACTION: There's Something About Mary. She was the paid lesbian diplomat for Coors Beer!
UPDATED: Saturday Oct 16th
Mary Cheney used to work for the Coors Brewing Company. Her job title was Corporate Relations Manager. Let me translate that for you: OUT LESBIAN working to convince millions of gay men and lesbians to end their years-long boycott of Coors. Mary Cheney met with representatives of gay and lesbian organizations and gave them Coors sponsorship money in an effort to repair of the Coors Beer brand in the gay community.
That's right. While Wolf Blitzer and Lynne Cheney are whining that Mary Cheney should not be brought into the election, the rest of us realize that invasions of her "privacy" are a bogus complaint. When it came to fighting for the dollars of the gay and lesbian community, Mary Cheney was standing in the front lines between Coors Beer and the gay and lesbian market demographic.
I personally met Mary Cheney about five years ago, when she was the VERY OUT lesbian liaison to the gay community for Coors Brewing. As many blogACTIVE.com readers know, Coors had been the object of a nationwide boycott by the gay community. Mary's job was to convince gay and lesbian community organizations to accept money from Coors Beer. She spent her time explaining that Coors Beer brand and homopbohic business magnate Pete Coors were not one and the same when it comes to issue of importance the gay and lesbian community. Mary explained how the pro-Gay company deserved support despite the homophobic family that owned it and made its money from it. Ugh.
By the way, Mary was very successful in her work. Despite the Coors' family's homophobia and gay-baiting, plenty of gay men and lesbians drink Coors. Why? Because PR folks like Mary Cheney will tell you that the family and the company are different. I will look into rejuvination of the Coors Boycott in a few weeks, right now there's other things to deal with.
WHERE was Lynne's outrage when wealthy gay and lesbian individuals were donating hundreds of dollars through the Republican Unity Coalition to have their picture taken with her daughter because she was the first out gay child of a sitting Vice President?
WHERE was Lynne's outrage when business magnate-turned U.S. Senate candidate Pete Coors (R) hired Mary to help market events similar to the gay 'Black and Blue Ball' in Montreal, mentioned by Tim Russert this past weekend on 'Meet the Press'? You're telling me the Cheney's have a problem with John Kerry's mere identification of their daughter as a gay person, but they DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM with Mary spearheading the Coors sponsorship of events like the like the 'Rail Raunch and Fetish Night'?
WHERE was Lynne's outrage when the GOP mailed these homophobic flyers in swing states?
WHERE was Lynne's outrage when the GOP passed the most anti gay and lesbian platform in American history?
Lynne Cheney, a good part of your daughter's career was spent as the official lesbian diplomat for Pete Coors and his corporate brands.
Lynne Cheney, have you no shame?

Why is this relevant today?
Basically, the Bush/Cheney '04 folks want take the focus over the REAL issues facing the American people. If the news spends 120 seconds of Lynne Cheney fuming that her OUT LESBIAN daughter was mentioned during the question of HOMOSEXUALITY, that is two minutes of not talking about what the American people care about most: Iraq, jobs, health care and the economy.

TAKE ACTION!
Take a moment, click here to write a note to CNN anchors and tell them that on a day when a car bomb goes off in Iraq, there is more important news than Mary Cheney...she's been out for years! Jeez...you think they would want to cover Dreier with all this obsession about gay sex!
