Why she might be annoying:

    As head of the National Endowment for Humanities, she rewrote the rules to sanitize it from anything remotely close to pornography.
    She lied to the press about the sexuality of her daughter Mary Cheney.
    She writes extremely patriotic history books for kids and writes out uncomfortable bits of American history.
    'Body Politic,' her political satire, is about the death of a Vice President while cheating on his wife. The book ends with the VP's wife becoming the new VP.
    Like her husband, she is a die-hard and divisive Republican.
    'Sisters,' her western novel, contains lesbian sex passages.
    She doesn't like how kids are taught about Native American history in school.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She speaks her mind.
    She is successful in her own right.
    In school she was considered very intelligent by her peers.
    She almost became the Vice Presidential pick of George W. Bush in 2000.
    She has to put up with Eminem making fun of her.
