Conflating being gay with a war criminal, propaganda and carpet bagging is offensive. Mary Cheney did not choose to be gay, but the same cannot be said for the rest of them. You may enjoy comparing the Cheney family to the Charlie Manson, but you're dead wrong to say that being gay is in any way wrong.
