Vice President Cheney's daughter Mary, the one who courted and then denied controversy a few months back by announcing that she and her "life partner" (she's a lesbian) were going to have a child by using a sperm donor. Mary carried the child, and just gave birth to an apparently healthy baby boy. Not really news, and I wouldn't really care, save for one, tiny problem: his name. Mary's son, the grandson to quite possibly the most malevolent politician the US has ever seen, is named Samuel...David...Cheney. So, since once isn't enough, FUCK YOU, MARY! My parents thought that one up in 1986, get your own damn name. It's not enough to take one of them, one of them is a coincidence. But both, fuck. And to add insult to injury, even the last initial is the same.
On a side note, though, every news website based in the US has a photo of Dick and Lynne Cheney, holding the baby and beaming, as is, I suppose, their right as grandparents. Only, don't pictures of beaming relatives involve, I don't know, the kid's parents? Oh...right. The whole two mommies thing. A fun bet: how many hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of therapy will this kid eventually need? Winner gets a signed copy of Lynne Cheney's frontier lesbians erotic thriller.
