UPDATE: When Dr. Dobson says it, it just sounds so much nicer.
In raising these issues, Focus on the Family does not desire to harm or insult women such as Cheney and Poe. Rather, our conviction is that birth and adoption are the purview of married heterosexual couples. Traditional marriage is God’s design for the family and is rooted in biblical truth. When that divine plan is implemented, children have the best opportunity to thrive. That’s why public policy as it relates to families must be based not solely on the desires of adults but rather on the needs of children and what is best for society at large.
Hmmm …. That’s just icing on the cake. I love the VP, but this is just a repulsive reminder of the jeopardy America’s families are in. Not trying to be mean, but I would be ashamed of my child turning out like this. The Cheneys — bless their ignorant hearts, were busy doing other things when they should have been tending to their kids. Judgemental? My blog, I’ll say what I freaking want.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Mary Cheney, the openly gay daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney and his wife, Lynne, is pregnant.
Mary Cheney, 37, and her partner of 15 years, Heather Poe, 45, are expecting a baby, said Lea Anne McBride, a spokeswoman for the vice president. The baby is due in late spring.
“The vice president and Mrs. Cheney are looking forward with eager anticipation to the arrival of their sixth grandchild,” McBride said.
The vice president’s other, older daughter, Elizabeth Cheney, is on leave as deputy assistant secretary of state after having her fifth child with her husband in July.
Mary Cheney was an aide to her father during the 2004 campaign, as was Elizabeth, and now is vice president for consumer advocacy at AOL.
McBride declined to elaborate on the circumstances of Mary Cheney’s pregnancy. Mary Cheney and Poe moved from Colorado to Virginia a year ago to be closer to the Cheney family.
The Washington Post first reported the news in Wednesday’s editions.
McBride declined to elaborate on the circumstances of Mary Cheney’s pregnancy? Does that mean that Heather Poe isn’t the father? Inquiring minds don’t give a flying rip.
You would think the left would love Cheney on this social issue / circumstance, but they still hate him because they are hypocrites.
