Some religious right groups still pissed at Cheney

More evidence that all is not well with the fundies leading into next week's GOP Convention.

From the AgapePress (radical right news service):

A pro-family activist claims Vice-President Dick Cheney's remarks earlier this week in support of homosexual marriage were orchestrated by the Republican hierarchy. Dr. Janice Crouse of the LaHaye Institute believes Cheney's words were no mistake, but were a deliberate left-aimed pitch. "There's no question that this remark was planned by the GOP," she says. "They're trying to be all things to all people, and you can't really do that in politics. If you kowtow to one group, you are going to alienate another group. It's obvious they are reaching out to the far left in the party." However, Crouse says this tactic will not work because the bulk of Republican support comes from pro-marriage, pro-family people who are offended by this kind of rhetoric -- and she feels such statements could end up costing the GOP critical votes.
