		<description>re #115, A Question for Happy Mom,
I was thinking of doing this too as The Love of My Life and I are ready to have kids - but doesn&#039;t donating one&#039;s egg to her partner cost like twenty thousand more dollars than just plain sperm donor artificial insem of your own egg?  and may i ask what state you&#039;re in that the suit you mentioned was required? thanks!</description>

		<description>&quot;fertilize the egg of partner A, and then place the fertilized egg inside of partner B. Then theyâ€™ll both be biologically linked to the child. Future-Steps for mankind. Let the court solve parenthood after that web has been set&quot;

Actually, my wife and I did this, as have dozens of other lesbian couples.  The court has to handle each case individually, but we were able to sue each other to establish dual maternity before our kids were born.  That way we both got onto the birth certificates on day one.

People who hate gays should be the ones most into gay marriage -- until we filed the birth certificate I had no legal rights -- or responsibilities -- to my own genetic kids.  My wife could have gone on welfare or I could have run off to join the circus and never paid a nickel in child support. 
Same goes for Mary Cheney&#039;s partner.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m with you, Post #113.  Can we get Maury Povich working on the provenance of that turkey baster bulb ?
 Given the men&#039;s dormitory / frathouse ambiance of this administration and political wolf pac, potential donors are legion.  
  Grampa Cheney could easily have talked Dubya into yet another circle jerk and secured his place near the Bush throne in the New Feudal World Order of our newest American Century (invitations to the coronation will be released after NSPD-51/HSPD-20 has been invoked).
  I cannot picture Karl Rove being the donor (thank God for my stunted imaginative powers).  I can, however, easily picture Wolfowitz pulling off the old switcheroo in front of Mary and Heather&#039;s fridge, substituting his own contribution while the trusting couple are distracted elsewhere in the flat.
  Given the way Grampa Cheney gave up Libby like some dime-a-dozen Lee Harvey Oswald, it seems unlikely that patsy would be in the running.
  As for Rumsfeld, I guess if Zsa Zsa&#039;s husband could entertain us with his claims to Danielyn&#039;s paternity, the flannel mouthed field marshall could do the same.
  Seems to me like Maury, Entertainment Tonight and the National Enquirer are letting us down on this one.

		<description>So does anyone know who is the child&#039;s biological father????

Could the VP actually be the donor, making him both grandpa and pa at the same time?  In the annals of world history has anything like that ever happened before?  

Or is Wolfowitz, or Libby, or Rummy the papa?  Could there have been a group donation of neocons, making a the whole question a soupy mess?  This calls for investigative journalism of the first degree!</description>

		<description>Quite honestly, I feel sorry for the baby.  I don&#039;t know the mother, and I&#039;m not sure whether she is like her father or not.  If she is, then the baby is likely to be brought up like a heartless uncaring bastard from hell, which is not his fault-- it is the fault of the parents.  If she isn&#039;t like her father, then the baby should grow up without overmuch corrupting influence and should also be relatively tolerant of others(remember-- lesbian parents).</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t help but think when looking at the &quot;touching&quot; photograph with Lynne, Anakin, and DICK-Hard, that behind his Vice Presidential mask that he is just madder than a hornet with a broken stinger because HE, former Secretary of Defense, EX-CEO of HALLIBURTON, former multiple term CONGRESSMAN from the great STATE of WYOMING, &amp; 2 term VICE PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES, Dickhard Bruce Cheney, would have to lower myself from the business of conducting EVIL so that an inane photograph can be made with this brat belonging to &quot;YOU KNOW WHO,&quot; that is both too young to know what is happening, and too much CHENEY to give a damn.. .. Where is Beelzabug when I really need him? Beelzabug, it&#039;s ME O&#039;l DickHARD where the hell are ya?</description>

		<description>you all post comments to this thread like Cheney, et al. actually read it. they probably don&#039;t even know it&#039;s here.

oh, and for the extremists: not all leftists are nutjobs and not all right-wingers are intolerant. we&#039;re all entitled to our opinions and to express them. it&#039;s the right to express that makes us the great people that we are. let&#039;s not take that away from each other because someone none of us even know had a kid.</description>

		<description>#67 Angie:

So what you&#039;re saying is, it&#039;s okay for your kid to be gay, but not anyone else&#039;s? It&#039;s okay for Dick Cheney to love his gay child while he willingly goes along with a party that demonizes gays (including his daughter) and works overtime to make their lives horrible and miserable? A party that seeks political advantage out of working overtime to make the lives of gay people (who are all SOMEONE&#039;S child) horrible and miserable? 

I thought this was America, where people are supposed to be free. Thanks for setting me straight on that (forgive the pun).</description>

		<description>#67  Angie,

Please don&#039;t use the term &quot;lifestyle&quot;.  That implies that gays have a choice of multiple &quot;lifestyles&quot; to pick from.

Gays are born gay.  It is not a choice.

A lifestyle is a choice.  Such as whether to live in the city or country.  In a house or an apartment.  Whether to spend your time going to movies and dinner out or whether to spend it doing volunteer work.

Who you fall in love with is not a &quot;Lifestyle&quot;</description>
