>     OFFICIAL SBM PRESS RELEASE 05/30/07:

>     White House Officially Recognizes Homosexual Unions and Parenting?

>     Contact: The Parents Group ~ SBM's National Office, 203-926-6960

>     HUNTINGTON, Conn., May 30 /Christian Newswire/ -- On May 23, 2007,
> the White House, silently and without any fanfare, released an
> official White House photo of Vice President Dick Cheney and his wife,
> Lynne Cheney, welcoming their sixth grandchild, Samuel David Cheney,
> into the Cheney fold.

>     The beautiful little tyke weighed in at 8 lbs., 6 oz. and was born
> at 9:46 a.m. at Sibley House in Washington, D.C.

>     What is extremely troubling is the official White House caption
> that appears underneath the photo on the official White House website:

>     "... His parents are the Cheney's daughter Mary, and her partner,
> Heather Poe. White House photo by David Bohrer."

>     Since when have two homosexual women been able to naturally
> procreate?

>     Fact is Mary Cheney, the Vice President's daughter - in one way or
> another - received a male's sperm. She is the biological mother,
> parent number one, and some man, somewhere out there, is Samuel
> David's real biological father, parent number two.

>     Unlike the official White House photo caption, a man and a woman,
> a Daddy and a Mommy, are Samuel David Cheney's REAL biological
> parents.

>     Then who is Heather Poe?

>     Heather Poe is Mary Cheney's live-in lesbian lover. She may act
> like a parent, she may treat the baby as a parent, she may love this
> baby with all of her heart, but in this reality we all live in,
> Heather Poe is NOT the baby's real parent. She has NO biological
> connection to the child whatsoever. Some man, the baby's real Daddy,
> is the child's other REAL parent.

>     If the Vice President and his wife Lynne are joining their
> daughter Mary in playing this homosexual game of "house," then all
> have chosen their roles and designated lesbian lover Heather Poe as
> the "Daddy."

>     Everyone knows there can only be one REAL biological Mommy. We are
> all grown adults. Playing "house" is a game for children, not for The
> White House or the Vice President and his wife.

>     What is so hypocritical of this Administration is its "double-
> speak."

>     President George W. Bush held several presses conferences calling
> for a Federal Marriage Amendment to protect the God-ordained
> institution of marriage between one man and one woman, while
> homosexuals pushed for the union of two men or two women to be equally
> recognized as real "marriage."

>     However, the President's number two, right hand man, Vice
> President Dick Cheney, clearly rebels against his superior, makes a
> public mockery of the President and the current Administration he is
> supposed to represent, and clearly holds to a different set of moral
> standards and beliefs.

>     When President Bush stood on the victory stage several years ago
> after being elected into office by values voters, Mary Cheney was on
> stage as well with her lesbian lover, Heather Poe. It was a slap in
> the face to the values voters who had just elected the duo into
> office. That wound has never healed.

>     While this little innocent child Samuel David Cheney deserves
> every fighting chance at life, the sins of two women, Mary Cheney and
> Heather Poe, have deliberately denied the Vice President's grandson
> one of the most basic human rights of all: the right to a Daddy and a
> Mommy.

>     I say shame on the White House, shame on the President and shame
> on the Vice President for allowing such a caption to be "officially"
> added onto the White House website and such a beautiful photo of two
> happy grandparents and their new grandchild.

>     I guess we can tragically and officially say both the White House
> and Bush Administration have officially recognized the sinful sexual
> unions of homosexuals, as well as recognized and embraced the tragedy
> of the social experiment of homosexual parenting. [end quoted text]
