Dear Mary’ Cheney Ads Target Gay Marriage

A new web campaign by pro same-sex marriage group DontAmend targeting Vice President Dick Cheney’s gay daughter, Mary, chides her for taking such a leading role in supporting Bush and Cheney during their 2000 bid for the presidency and her sudden lack of visibility when the same people she once vigorously supported are now trying to push through a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage.

The web campaign, viewable on the website DearMary, is part of a larger campaign launched in February and consists of stick figures of Mary Cheney with taglines such as, “Dick’s daughter sold out to help Dick run again.”
