Mary Cheney Gives Birth to Baby Boy

Mary Cheney gave birth today to perhaps the most anticipated baby in contemporary U.S. politics -- her first child, Samuel David Cheney, whom she will raise with her longtime partner Heather Poe.

The 8-pound, 6-ounce boy is the sixth grandchild for Dick Cheney.

That is evil--

That is bad form, Prof!

Is that a beam or a mote in your eye?

This is a birth announcement.

Can't you show some class!

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

No, just in favor of a return to good manners, which oh-so-many-years-ago used to include an embargo on public scolding on births that were not “traditional.”

I didn't make the birth public. I saw an announcement about the birth on Drudge. He links to a news article. Then I saw it posted on FR. What you seem to want is one-way speech unless the replies are all positive and in agreement with your own perspective. That's a lot of control on speech for someone who touts no control on morals.

Hey, 2 women having in an immoral relationship, read all about it from the Bible - the book that will judge the world:

Romans 1:26 For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,

Is that a beam or a mote in your eye?

"Judge not" is only biblical phrase the libs know. They find it so useful.

we better go right down and lock up the liquor.

Is that liquor or....never mind.

It’s shameful to call VP Cheney to disown his own daughter because she’s a lesbian,

Who said that? In what post #? If I had the time or the inclination, I'd go check the homosexual agenda threads and see if those who are so understanding and charitable to Cheney's daughter feel the same way about queers when it comes to not so famous ones? Reading some of the post here, maybe FR should just get rid of the homosexual agenda links because so many are just fine and dandy with two lesbians having a child.

I'll say it up front, homosexuality is an abomination.

I couldn’t recall her last name. I said nothing about Mary Kay cosmetics. Nice diversion attempt. But Mary Kay LeTourneau is a lady and who are you to judge her morality? She has sustained a lengthy relationship. Why are you not impressed?

I think it is pretty easy to judge LeTourneau's morality, unless you think it is OK for a nearly middle-aged married woman to be having sex with a 14 year-old boy.

When you use the phrase "Mary Kay Lady". it should only be associated with a woman who has a Mary Business; and certainly not a child sex abuser.

[JRochelle]

God will judge. Not me.

That child will be like millions of others who don’t have a father in the home. That is sad but its not anything out of the ordinary.

[higgmeister]

While I appreciate your sentiment, you get a failing grade for the delivery. As I stated above this is a birth announcement. Flush the potty mouth.

Even on life issues, as you put it, the RCC is not the “only” church that is “right on life issues”.

There are a large number of non-RCC churches that take the same position as the RCC church, and even some non-Christian churches.

[cajungirl]

I say minding everyone’s business but your own, making ugly comments on the birth of a child, presuming to judge others is a worse abomination.

But right up front, many of us live our lives, live our own morality in our lives and let God judge the rest. And we happen to like Dick Cheney and like babies and have the decency not to comment on other’s happy occasions like skunks at garden parties.

I don’t think homosexuality is a sin or immoral. I think it just is. Always has been.

You’re watching way too much South Park. Scissored...

Dude, I have no idea what the heck is going on here, but if this is kind of garbage that passes for free-thinking, tolerance, no thanks. You really need some mental therapy.

Despite agreeing with your tag line, that has to be the most ignorant statement I have seen in some time.

My wife and I have just learned that we are expecting after several years of trying. It was done by one of those methods listed, for reasons that are medical and private.

It is a blessing from God that he has given man the mind and ability to help people like my wife and I.

It does not matter where you stand on the issue of the Chaney birth, condemning these procedures is just plain stupid.

BTW my wife is a woman and I am a man. Does that help?

[eleni121]

YOU pathetic loser! No, that’s being generous.

How’s this you brown spot:

You couldn’t get lucky in a cathouse with a handful of 50 dollar bills.

Cheerio...

Congratulations! This is the type of silent anguish that plagues thousands, yet is overcome by the miracles of medicine. We don't hear about fertility-challenged couples because of the anti-Life bent of the MSM. God Bless You and your family.

You don't think it's a sin? Then I can see how you accept it.

Ask the owner of this site or any God fearing Christian if a homosexual lifestyle is accepted.

Have you always been so accepting of queers or is it just because it's Cheney's daughter that makes it more palatable? Would you care if two queer men raised a little girl?

God bless mother and baby.

I know there are political points associated with the birth of this child. But, I also know that I pray that both baby and mother are healthy - physically, mentally, and spiritually.
