‘A dream come true' Triplets prove challenging, rewarding for Enfield pair (Ithaca lesbians)
Ithaca Journal | Originally published January 10, 2006 | By DARISE JEAN-BAPTISTE

ITHACA--According to the Ithaca Journal , a pair of Ithaca-area lesbians were able to conceive and birth triplets through in vitro fertilization and a sperm bank donor.

One mother, Kathy Zoner, is the assistant director and captain of the Cornell University Police.

The other mother, Kathleen Pasetty, is owner of a coffee shop on the Ithaca Commons.

The couple tells the Journal "their goals would have been more difficult or impossible to attain" if they lived elsewhere. The two receive help with childcare with financial help from grant money provided to Cornell employees.

The article makes it difficult to determine which one is the "man" in the relationship. On one hand, they go by Zoner's last name, and she's a cop. On the other, Zoner carried the children, which would imply she's the mother. However, she was implanted with Pasetty's eggs, the article notes.

I guess the only certain thing about this couple's relationship is that the kids are going to be as confused as hell someday.

You don't mean one or the other will find a different Dixie cup and turkey baster? You certainly aren't implying that there is more tan these two space aliens out there?

Reading the article it would seem that the skinny one with no boobs supplied the egg while the big dude contributed her womb; sounds like two "mothers" to me.

Does this answer Maureen Dowd's question?

Poor children. They'll be suffering from terminal mind f*** once they start interacting with other children.

I feel quite sorry for the children. It is bizarre that we allow people to abuse children in this way.

Read the article; one is full time, the other part time and the university is picking up the tab for daycare.

But if somebody doesn't break that one kid from standing on the window sill, he'll break his leg, or worse.

You're right. They haven't got a chance. They'll be taught a normal that just isn't.

Is there are short version of why the city is evil?

A few good reasons why "Ithaca is the City of Evil":

A few reasons why "Ithaca is the City of Evil":

Originally called "Sodom" in frontier days, and home to Lucifer Falls, Ithaca is host to two colleges, Cornell U (aptly nick-named "the Big Red") and Ithaca College (which flies the gay flag over its campus), the two major employers in the area. They ensure that a disproportionate amount of "ivory tower liberals" dominate the city.

Click here to see some "typical" Ithacans. Scary, huh?

With a crew like this in charge, locating copies of National Review or the American Spectator requires a trip out of the City, while Ithaca magazine racks remain well-stocked with copies of The Progressive, and The Nation. Readers interested in exposing themselves to a full range of national opinion are simply out of luck.

As a result of this dominiance, politics in Ithaca runs the gamet from "liberal" to "communist."

For years, the town had an openly socialist mayor. They later elected him to the school board.

Even today, the City and County governments are dominated by democrats and Green party members. Ithaca is so "Green" that Ralph Nader got more votes in Ithaca than George W. Bush, and the NYS Green Party held its 2002 nominating convention there. The current Chair of the County Legislature is a radical former anti-war protester, self-described hippie, who says "My values haven't changed, just my tactics."

Another local political figure, commenting on September 11, said >"I think the U.S. is starting to pay for the fact that it's been a rogue state for years."

As a result, we get lunacy like spending $500,000 to install solar panels on the new library (in cold, dark, upstate NY).

Even law enforcement is subject to political correctness. One former police chief's major concern was "pushing for departmental diversity.". His replacement was picked because they wanted a minority, but he failed the civil service exam twice. The latest chief was chosen simply because they wanted a woman. Her most notable accomplisments are attending topless protests and and banning the U.S. flag from police uniforms.

To make matters worse, the liberals who dominate Ithaca work overtime to impose their ultra liberal agenda on the area children. As the local newspaper recently put it, “In most places, youngsters spend their summers camping, or at the mountains or the beach. In Ithaca, they learn how to become social activists.”

The School District has mandated that elementary school students in the first and second grades be graded on how well they "respect others of varying cultures, genders, experiences, and abilities." It's even listed on the schools' report card. Despite this alleged tolerance, a student who was found reading the bible on her lunch hour was chatised for doing so. Another was directed not to bring a book about Christmas to school.

There's even a taxpayer funded "alternative" (ie, hippie) school that let's students graduate in majors like basket weaving and political activism, and invited convicted cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal to be its graduation speaker .

These schools churn out "educated idiots," who are so liberal, they write editorials that argue "Bin Laden is Human too."

Need more proof? Do a search for "Ithaca" here at FR. You'll see a near daily dose of institutionalized, unfettered, liberal idiocy.

As a result of its unfettered liberalism, Ithaca was voted most enlightened (ie, liberal) city in America by the ultra left Utne Reader. As a good, conservative Freeper, I'm sure you'll agree that, contrary to what Utne says, "liberal" is not "enlightened." Unfettered liberalism is, well, evil.

As the most liberal city in America,"Ithaca is the City of Evil."
