You know, they say dykedom's genetic, and of course, one look at Second Lady Lynne Cheney's 1981 lesbian romance novel "Sisters" lets the readers know what side of the family Mary gets her love for the ladies.
Wrote Lynne, among many other howlers:
"How well her words describe our love - or the way it would be if we could remove all impediments, leave this place, and join together ... Then our union would be complete. Our lives would flow together, twin streams merging into a single river."
In case you're not up on your lesbian romance novel metaphors, she's talking about the vaginal juices of the two gals mingling.
A used copy is available on Amazon for 282 bucks. Meanwhile, Mary's book is headed for the recycle bins. See Mary? If you had stayed a closeted lesbian, like your mom, 25 years later somebody might have paid a LOT for your book.
Oh, Lynne, Lynne, Lynne, what Sapphic secrets swirl inside your helmet head?
Wow. That blurb had the greatest amount of awkward sentences I've seen in one paragraph in a very long time.
"I can't figure out what kind of life this is, comedy or tragedy, I just know it's showbiz. And what if I don't agree with the lines I have to read? They don't pay me enough, the way I see it."
Didn't Cheney also once write a political thriller in which an incompetent vice-president dies from a heart attack while having sex, and his brilliant wife takes over the job and saves the country? Updated On: 10/28/06 at 10:36 AM
CHENEY: Well, all right, Wolf. I’m here to talk about my book, but if you want to talk about distortion…
BLITZER: We’ll talk about your book.
CHENEY: Well, right, but what is CNN doing running terrorist tapes of terrorists shooting Americans? I mean, I saw Duncan Hunter ask you a very good question and you didn’t answer it. Do you want us to win?
BLITZER: The answer is, of course, we want the United States to win. We are Americans. There’s no doubt about that. Do you think we want terrorists to win?
CHENEY: Then why are you running terrorist propaganda?
BLITZER: With all due respect — with all due respect, this is not terrorist propaganda.
CHENEY: Oh, Wolf.
BLITZER: This is reporting the news.

CHENEY: Now, do you promise, Wolf, that we’re going to talk about my book?
BLITZER: I do promise.
CHENEY: Because this seems to be a mighty long trip around the merry-go-round.
BLITZER: I want you to — this was in the news today and your name has come up, so that’s why we’re talking about it.

BLITZER: Here’s what the Democratic Party put out today, the Democratic Congressional — Senatorial Campaign Committee: “Lynne Cheney’s book featured brothels and attempted rape. In 1981, Vice
President Dick Cheney’s wife, Lynne, wrote a book called “Sisters”, which featured a lesbian love affair, brothels and attempted rapes.”
CHENEY: No. [NOTE FROM PJ: Oh, yes it did!]
BLITZER: “In 1988, Lynn Cheney wrote about a Republican vice president who dies of a heart attack while having sex with his mistress.” Is that true?
CHENEY: Nothing explicit. And actually, that was full of lies. It’s not — it’s just — it’s absolutely not a…
BLITZER: Did you write a book entitled “Sisters”?
CHENEY: I did write a book entitled “Sisters.”
BLITZER: It did have lesbian characters.
CHENEY: This — no, not necessarily. This description is a lie. I’ll stand on that. [NOTE FROM PJ: Sit down, bItch!]
BLITZER: There’s nothing in there about rape and brothels?
CHENEY: Well, Wolf, could we talk about a children’s book for a minute?
BLITZER: We can talk about the children’s book. I just wanted to…
CHENEY: I think my segment is, like, 15 minutes long and we’ve had about 10 minutes of…
BLITZER: I just wanted to — I just wanted to clarify what’s in the news today, given — this is…
CHENEY: Sex, lies and distortion. [NOTE FROM PJ: What's that? The 2006 GOP platform?]
Nobel Prize winner Jimmy Carter may have famously lusted after women in his heart, but god bless American Lesbian Porn Writer Lynne Cheney for lusting on the page!
She was a mess on CNN. Obvious that she didn't even have clear talking points to refute the items Blitzer was questioning her about, much less honest answers.
