Former US vice president Dick Cheney said Friday he was delighted after his lesbian daughter Mary married her long-term partner Heather Poe. (http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/06/22/Cheney-delighted-at-lesbian-daughters-wedding)
Cheney and Poe, who have two children, were married in Washington DC, where gay marriage has been legal since 2010, reports said.
"Mary and Heather have been in a committed relationship for many years, and we are delighted that they were able to take advantage of the opportunity to have that relationship recognized," said a Cheney family statement.
"Mary and Heather and their children are very important and much loved members of our family and we wish them every happiness," it added.
Forty-three year-old Mary Cheney confirmed the news on her Facebook page, according to People magazine. "Very happy to announce that as of this morning, Heather and I are legally married (at least in DC).
They married 20 years to the day after their first date, she added. The couple have a five-year-old son and a two-year-old daughter.

Of course. "Mother"? "Father"? Just words. Just social constructs. It's all plug-and-play. There's nothing special about the masculine and feminine characters that would mean they have an equal role to play in the creation and rearing of new life.
So glad it's recognized. Perhaps we can now move on to legalizing marriages of more than 2 people, maybe direct blood relatives after that.

Yeah, I wouldn't say anything either.
