Comedian Richard Lewis: Mary Cheney is 'Casper the Lesbian'

by PageOneQ

Comedian Richard Lewis, during a sit-down with MSNBC's Keith Olbermann, says that he can't understand why a gay person or a person of color would want to be involved with the Republican Party.

Dick Cheney's "wonderful daughter" Mary, Lewis says, should realize that she "doesn't count" in the Republican Party as a lesbian. "She's like Casper the Lesbian," Lewis quips.

The segment, called "Nobody Does it Bitter," highlights the continued use of Senator Obama's usage of the word "bitter," used during an April 6 speech to describe the sentiment among working-class people in the current economic climate, as an attempt by his opponents to frame him as an "elitist."

The entire segment, from MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann, is available to view below. It was broadcast on April 24, 2008.
