Cheney’s lesbian daughter gives birth

Mary Cheney, VP Dick Cheney‘s lesbian daughter, gave birth today to a healthy little boy.

“I love babies, even Republican ones, and I’m glad he was born healthy,” my old colleague Greg Hernandez writes on his blog, Out in Hollywood. “I just wish he had a grandfather who loved him enough and loved his gay daughter enough to not endorse such anti-gay policies.”

Granted Dick and Lynne look awfully happy in this picture, but we all know where the Bush administration’s political base lies—and it’s not in bed with a party of the same sex.
