i feel very sorry for this child

Mary Cheney’s baby is born. Vice President Cheney’s daughter Mary gave birth today to Samuel David Cheney.

Under Virginia law, Mary’s partner of 15 years, Heather Poe, “will have no legal relationship with her child. She can’t adopt as a second parent. She won’t have her name on the birth certificate.” President Bush will still not say whether or not he supports gay adoption.
