Now GOP claims Mary was outed?

Ok, this is choice. I've gotten reports that the GOP, led by Fox News, is now claiming that John Kerry "outed" Mary Cheney during the debate last night.

Yeah, Mary bringing her "life partner" Heather Coe on stage during the VP debate, now that wasn't outing her. Mary sitting in box seats at the GOP convention with her girlfriend, that wasn't outing her. Dick Cheney bringing up the fact that his daughter is gay in Iowa during a public town hall meeting a month ago, that wasn't outing Mary. Mary being the gay liaison at Coors, that wasn't outing her. Mary selling pictures of herself at gay Republican fundraisers for $500 a pop, that wasn't outing her.

But John Kerry mentioning Mary Cheney after all of that, now suddenly she's been outed.

So apparently Mary was in the closet. She and her entire family need to go away.
