Look, we’re really glad that a high-profile same-sex couple is embarking on parenthood.
But did it have to be turncoat/Auntie Tom Mary Cheney? She’s the kind of person who would issue a press release about her impending motherhood and then support her father in claiming that the story was a homophobic Democrat conspiracy.
Normally, if a famous lesbian couple got pregnant, we would be excited about the eventual possibilites - that the spawn would grow to become a sitcom star/board chair of a gay rights-oriented nonprofit. But with Mary, we’re kind of convinced they’re going to birth a future oil company CEO named Trent.
