Where's Mary?

That's the question asked by a new Web site that wants the vice president's openly lesbian daughter to speak out against a proposed constitutional amendment banning gay marriages. Since going up last Friday, the site has received 3,000 letters from people pleading with Mary Cheney to publicly oppose the amendment.


The project, http://www.DearMary.com, appears as President Bush (news - web sites) is considering supporting such a ban. Some conservative groups want to make the issue a centerpiece of this November's election.


Vice President Dick Cheney (news - web sites) said last month that he thinks the matter should be left up to the states, but would support an amendment if the president did.


"Please help us and other people of the same lifestyle to live just as freely as your father," one letter writer from Kansas said.

2. I wrote to her.

It was a respectful note. Hopefully she feels free to express her opinion. Members of these families have certainly expressed contrary views in the past on various matters.
