WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Vice President Dick Cheney's pregnant lesbian daughter Mary will make a "fine mom," President George W. Bush said, sidestepping his past comment that a child ideally would be raised by a mother and father.
Mary Cheney, 37, and her longtime partner, Heather Poe, are expecting their first child, which would be the sixth grandchild for the vice president. Cheney was hired last year as an executive for America Online.
"I think Mary is going to be a loving soul to her child. And I'm happy for her," Bush said in an interview with People magazine.
Sorry, but I can't be happy about deliberately bringing a child into this kind of relationship. It's abnormal and children have enough to deal with in this wacky world!
A grandfather is a grandfather is a grandfather.
I sure hope some of these folks aren't grandfathers.
What do you expect them to say?
My thought too
You're right! It's very selfish to have a chid without thinking about it's welfare. Very sad.
However one feel about George W and his policies....
Personally he's a gentleman with a good heart and this is what I would expect him to say.
That a child should be raised by a mother and father.
Exactly!
I wonder if the baby will ever know his/her father. One thing is for sure, the baby will never be able to get truthful instruction in morality. How sad. In fact, he/she will be raised to defend what is an abomination to God. How very VERY sad! The role models for the child will be immoral, so as the child role plays, as children always do, the tot will pretend to be a homosexual. Again, how sad and tragic.
You'd expect him to do the gentlemanly thing and lie.
Yep,the poor child will be part of a loving family, will have super achieving and famous grandparents and will have all the advantages a hunded or so million $ can bring.... Hell, he/she might even grow up to be a political figure and do some good in the world....Its so sad
I their place I would have made no comment - certainly not how happy it made me.
I guess, "This is an abomination borne of degeneracy ", would be too tough a statement.?.
I would take a bastard child over lesbian mothers, any day.
I would take any child over an abortion, too.
This is another case of Republican leadership morphing into Democrat leadership. Just like Animal Farm, I cannot tell one from another anymore.
"Vice President Dick Cheney's pregnant lesbian daughter Mary will make a "fine mom," President George W. Bush said".
Barf alert.
This kind of thing is sick, not warm and fuzzy.
Just shut-up, Mr. President, if you can't say something any more useful or intelligent than that.
Sorry, but I can't be happy about deliberately bringing a child into this kind of relationship. It's abnormal and children have enough to deal with in this wacky world!
