Openly Gay Cheney Daughter Writing Memoir
Mary Cheney, daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney, plans to publish a memoir under a new subdivision of Simon & Schuster devoted to conservative books, the company announced Tuesday.
Cheney, a top aide during her father’s campaigns in 2000 and 2004, has drawn much political attention because she is openly gay.
Day 1: Munched box today. Turns out I don’t like dick. Wonder if I should tell mom and dad.
Day 2: Told Dad I’m gay. Mom says the bruises will heal in no time. Cracked ribs and punctured lung may take a bit longer.
Day 46: Still coughing up blood. Reminder: Tell Dad to stop kicking me in the kidney every time I walk by.
Day 366: Been gay for one whole year. Went to Hooters to celebrate with some girlfriends. Later Dad tried to carve out my womb with a hacksaw. He was mumbling something about “devil spawn.” I hate when he gets moody.
Day 922: I’m back at de-gayification camp again. Dad caught me looking at the Swimsuit Issue and decided I needed more re-education. I hate nuns. Except Sister Mary Margaret. That bitch licks box like a champ. Hail Mary!
Day 1135: Dad thinks its best if I come work for him. As soon as he stopped choking me, I said yes faster than you can say “splintered esophagus.” The tracheotomy should heal in a few weeks.
Day 1135, part two: My dad has an enormous cock. (He asked me to write that.)
Day 1421: I’m running Dad’s campaign now. I call it the “Acting Against My Own Best Interest” Tour. It’s lonely on the road. I think I’m going to ask Dad if I can bring Sister Mary Margaret along.
Day 1422: Dad said no. Funeral services for Sister Mary Margaret will be held on Tuesday. Hope I’ll be able to go. Still not fully recovered from the blunt force trauma to the cranium. Doctors say my vision should return within days.
Day 1423: Dad had Sister Mary Margaret’s head stuffed and mounted on the wall over his bed. Not funny.
Day 1944: My big coming out party is today. Melissa Etheridge is coming. Yay!
Day 1945: I feel bad that things went so poorly yesterday. The fire department said it was a “natural gas leak.” At least I think that’s what they said. It’s hard to hear through all the bandages. Mom says I’ll be pretty again after the skin grafts.
