An' the train done gone

Pam's House Blend points out how very disturbed the right wing is that Mary Cheney is having a baby and there is no father. Well, think about it: If Dick Cheney were your father, wouldn't you be tempted to make the same choice?

Cheney's partner, Heather Poe, has zero rights under the new Virginia "no gay marriage or benefits or rights ever" law. Will Mary and Heather move to California or Vermont? Will the baby be on show at the next Republican convention? Will Mary suddenly realize the meaning of "internalized homophobia"? Does anyone care?
