Bless your heart. I couldn't agree more - thank you.
Some of the posts in this thread will make your stomach turn.
On a social conservative site, the issues related to lesbians having babies is naturally of interest here.
OMG Wilfred Brimirly too funny
Then question the politics of it.
Not the highly personal aspects of it.
More importantly, will the child ever have the opportunity to know what genetic diseases he inherited from his paternal genes?
My Dad was adopted so I don’t know what my genetic life will be like except through my Dad who is 60 right now to my 38. My kids (ages 9, 8, 5) will only have two generations of knowledge. It really did not hurt me that much. In fact, I never give it a second thought. Not what I would put under “Most importantly” in my book anyway. Don’t be so dramatic.
Yes exactly. So now we have the majority accepting that a child needs no moral instruction to have a proper upbringing. And George Washington type thinking is bigoted: "[A] good moral character is the first essential in a man... and your conduct here may stamp your character through life. It is therefore highly important that you should endeavor not only to be learned but virtuous." --George Washington
According to the very latest studies, lesbians have significantly fewer abortions than heterosexual women. So, that should count for something.
I posted that pic. They pulled it. Don’t be surprised...
The criteria relationships which are commendable are those that last long?
Are you sure this is a valid criteria?
Glad its a boy. Girls are so much harder to raise. :-)

Well Duh!!!!
this is something I would expect from the democrats.
The mantra giving you cover?
That line is becoming a pass key for some bad behavior.
I would hold back on it if I were you - it gets used way too often.
No offense.
In all seriousness, congrats to Ms. Cheney and her significant other, as well as to Lynn and Dick.
Yeah especially Cardinal Mahoney.
Regards
is that a battery tester?
