Linda, I'm finding your comments in favor of small government interesting here. Your position is that Mary Cheney's decision to use sperm from a presumably anonymous donor to have herself impregnated and raise her child together with her lesbian lover is none of our business. You also seem to hold the position that people should make these decisions free from not only government control but also from any open criticism.

So, I'm curious as to why you've made it your business to appear on homeschooling threads periodically to criticize us for our decision not to send our children to school. You become so indignant about the grammar in internet posts, yet a woman purposely having herself impregnated so that she can raise a child without the biological father is beyond reproach to you. Interesting.

Linda appears on many of the homosexual agenda threads to cheerlead homosexuality while pretending to be neutral, same thing for abortion. She's a troll. Didn't know she slams home schooling too; that's three for three.

I don't think I've ever said that people shouldn't homeschool. Can you refer me to posts where I have said so? I have sometimes noted people's grammar and spelling as examples NOT to follow if teaching, but I know I have never said that people should be prevented from homeschooling, whatever my own opinion of it may be.

I agree that the ideal family is a mother and a father for a child, preferably married. However, I don't see how having Mary Cheney marry a man she has no interest in to form a traditional family would be of benefit to anyone. You can criticize if you wish, but really, what difference does it make?

And I don't see the premise of the thread at all, that Mary Cheney's pregnancy somehow harms us all. If that were true, you would think we would have heard from Dan Quayle by now - he was quite critical of a fictional character getting pregnant out of wedlock, now here's a real life example in his own party.

Do I think two mommies are optimal? In the big picture, it's not the best model. But I think this is a pretty solid family, and the baby born into it will be well provided for, both materially and emotionally.
