Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney entered the fray between his daughters over gay marriage on Monday as he rose to defend Liz Cheney, a Republican Senate candidate from Wyoming whose stance against same-sex nuptials has drawn barbs from her lesbian sister. Liz Cheney said in an appearance on "Fox News Sunday" that she believes in "the traditional definition of marriage." She said she loves her sister Mary, who is in a same-sex marriage, but that "this is an issue in which we disagree." That led to a quick response from Mary Cheney, who said on Facebook: "Liz -- this isn't just an issue on which we disagree -- you're just wrong -- and on the wrong side of history." Liz Cheney is seeking to unseat incumbent Republican Senator Mike Enzi in a primary election in August 2014, and the gay marriage issue had already punctuated Cheney's campaign after the sisters clashed publicly over it in August.
