Looks like former Vice President Dick Cheney and most Republicans don't see eye-to-eye on the issue of same-sex marriage.
Speaking at the National Press Club, Cheney said he's not against gay marriage.
"I think freedom means freedom for everyone," he said in remarks posted on the newspaper's Web site.
"People ought to be free to enter into any kind of union they wish, any kind of arrangement they wish."
Cheney's daughter is gay, with the former veep saying the issue should be left up to individual states rather than the federal government.
"The question of whether or not there ought to be a general statute that governs this I don't support," he said. "I do believe, historically, the way marriage has been regulated is at a state level. It's always been a state issue, and I think that's the way it ought to be handled today."
In the same speech, Cheney also confused the names of Osama bin Laden and President Barack Obama.
When talking about why Osama bin Laden hasn't yet been caught, the former VP said Obama's name.
"The important thing is that I don't think he can have much impact in terms of managing an organization because that link between Obama [sic] and the people under him is pretty fragile. I don't think he has the capacity to do as much harm as he did at one point, but we ought to still continue to chase him."
