[LM_NET] GEN:Lynne Cheney book jacket

[Cheryl Sturgeon <csturgeo@HIGHLANDSCHOOLS.ORG>]

No I am not bringing up the  furor over SISTERS but her current
children's book she was trying to promote on CNN during the furor.  
The back cover of OUR FIFTY STATES by Mrs. Cheney has a picture of her
surrounded by 5 children of seemingly mixed heritage. The text of the
bio below tells that she has 5 grandchildren.  The assumption is that
the pictured youngsters are her grandchildren. I wondered if some were
adopted so I researched a bit and in a bio of her daughter Elizabeth it
was stated that she has 3 girls and 2 boys as pictured, but since the 
boys were born in July of 2004 and July of 2006 they could not be the
pictured boys. Are any of these children related to her and if not why
are they in the picture? Is this misrepresentation?   Should I care?
 
I know I wouldn't notice if another author did likewise but when a
public figure/celebrity puts out a book then we tend to look at it a
little differently.
At the risk of bringing up politics on LM_NET I am putting this out
there to librarians for what its worth.
