Mary Cheney gives birth to a Son
(Cross posted on Gay Orbit)
Here’s hoping they don’t move to a state that won’t recognize her partner’s parental rights (Oh wait, they already do).
Her father might think that’s ‘over the line’.
Update: As of 6:22 PDT, all the major news sites have a story on the Cheney baby. Except Fox.
Update II: John notes, correctly, that it seems odd that the released photo is of the grandparents and baby, not the parents and baby.
Update III: You can send Mary and Heather a note of support.
Update IV: Freepers react.
This is just wrong to do to a child. IMO
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I couldn't agree more. But since it is being done, I am very glad he's a boy. At least he won't see them as a role model.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I’m willing to bet the kid will rebel and tell “Heather” to get lost.

It’s this whole homosexual marriage issue again. Since Cheney is against same-sex marriage and his lesbian daughter is in a relationship and having a baby, the MSM tries to make this seem like Cheney will be hypocritical by welcoming his new grandson. On the other hand, he would be seen as heartless if he rejected the little guy because of his opposition to gay marriage or relationships.
Either way, they have wanted to make Dick Cheney look bad.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lesbians are not known for their long relationships.
Probably this boy will know many mommies. I pray that his maternal grandparents, Lynn and Dick, will provide the stability he will need.
I pray for his well being and happiness.

What a sad way for a beautiful baby to enter the world. Here’s wishing him a Daddy, someday.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will this child ever have the oppurtunity to know their father?
More importantly, will the child ever have the opportunity to know what genetic diseases he inherited from his paternal genes?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I guess Dick Cheney is going to have to be the male influence in his life. At least that’s positive.

I understand that some homosexuals take on opposite-sex roles, one being the male and one the female. I have actually encountered more of a thing where you have two women who dress and act like two men but who relate sexually as members of the opposite sex. I don't know if it ever works out where two women actually act/look like real women but are lesbian. Regardless, even a brief consideration of that displays the abnormality of it all. So "who is the daddy" is really quite a question. Maybe we should also ask, "Who is the role model?" Is he to see himself as a future male version of one of the females? Is he to see himself in homosexual men? Is he to see himself as growing up to be like grandpa? I suppose that last one is the best case scenerio, but then he would see himself as embracing homosexuality in his own children. I wonder if that includes sex between the children themselves. I mean why not? Whose morality says they shouldn't have sex? Or even sex between parents and children? Why not? Whose morality demands that be unacceptable?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They’ve been together for 16 years.
So? They've been immoral for 16 years. Does that make them special?
The kid going to grow up with no dad and you have no problem with such a selfish act?
