I wonder if Obama has 2 fathers on his birth certificate?

Guess we'll never know, because we'll never see it.

emotional reasons for wanting both of their names on the birth certificate of the boy

Oooooh! Emotions!

“As an adopted child myself, I understand the need a child has to feel like he or she belongs,” Smith wrote. “I remember as a child wanting to see my own birth certificate and to see my parents listed because it gave me a sense of belonging, a sense of identity and a sense of dignity.”

This doesn't make sense. The kid is never supposed to figure out the lie? There's obviously a woman in the picture somewhere.

More nonsense brought about by how someone feels. Now I feel sick.

"The facts are so clear that no trial is needed, U.S. District Judge Jay Zainey wrote"

Well, the fact that Jay Zainey is a jackass is pretty clear to me.

one upped the immaculate conception/virgin birth...no mother

Of course, a child’s birth certificate should be all about the non-birth parents. Never mind that some genetic medical problem may turn up and the person and his doctors won’t have the truth to work from.

Birth certificate for an adopted son when neither "parent" has a blood tie???

The facts are so clear that no trial is needed, U.S. District Judge Jay Zainey wrote.

The fact is, Judge Jay Zainey, that the child was born of a woman. A woman carried the child in her womb for approximately 9 months and then gave birth. A birth certificate should include the name of the mother and the name of the father. Anything else is utter nonsense! To state otherwise confirms that Judge Zainey has a disordered mind. When will adult supervision arrive in this country?

A same-sex couple in California has won a federal court ruling....

Same-sex as definitive.

Bye Bye common sense for lack of direction has infiltrated our court system.

IMHO the facts are not as clear in this case as the judge would have them. Lousianna should not be forced to modify their vital records for an adoption made in New York. The original birth certificate in Lousianna should stand as it is and be sealed. New York should have to issue a new birth certificate from the adoption proceedings.

Obviously, that’s not how it is, but I think that’s how it should be. If a state doesn’t have to recognize gay marriage from another state, neither should it have to recognize adoption by a gay couple from another state.

[j-damn]

Sheer f*cking lunacy. One more nail in the coffin of national sanity.

So the kid grows up thinking he's the product of semen mingled with bloody feces. Revolting.

Louisiana to appeal update:

Louisiana to appeal putting two fathers' names on adoption birth certificate

Birth certificates are primary geneological documentation. That means they can be used to find out who your actual ancestors are, which has something to do with actual inheritance (genetic and racial, if not economic and cultural.)

Altering birth certificates is a kind of fraud, as well as a way to sabotage necessary medical research.

It deprives the child of something with is essential and belongs to him and him alone: his natural identity.
