61. I am very happy for Melissa and Tammy . I wish them the best. I also love the names that these little babies were given.These names have true meaning to their parents. Tammy put alot of thought into these names. These babies were born into a loving home and to two wonderful people that love each other very much. Congratulations to the two of you...

62. OK, for all that want to bounce G-d's word around, he tells us that he is the only one to judge, so mind your small minded business, here are two people that love each other and made a Conscience decision to start a family because they love each other and and have enough love to give to children.

How many children are brought into this world because they are the result of drug using women using thier bodies for prostitution/sex/money, or hormonal teenagers, or adults for that matter. How many "unwanted" pregnancies occured this year, how many chidren are in foster care due to heterosexual realtionships gone bad.....or % of children that come from divorced/unmarried heterosexual parents.

Here are two parents that love thier children... Get focused on more important issues, they are out there

63. Just saw the post 30: "same sex couples cannot create a child. What does that tell you." Tammy & Melissa did, they did so by alternative means, just as those that single moms, infertile heterosexual couples, and others use... Open your mind, you'll meet a lot of beautifull people

64. Children deserve to be raised by a mother and father. Melissa and Tammy have millions of dollars, hence they can BUY anything they want, including sperm.
Just like in the Black Community (which is an extremely matriarcal society, with fathers largely absent) where kids grow up angry and resentful because they never had a healthy male role model in their lives. Of course, their society is in need of severe self-intervention due to the out-of-wedlock birth rate and the fact that the men father multiple babies with multiple women.
There are definitely things that money CANNOT buy! How do you explain to the children that there is no Daddy and never will be? Or that most of the men around their lives are gay?

65. wow that is crazy I don't believe in GAY marriage or they having a RIGHT to raise a child. See in the bible it speaks about laying down with the same sex it is not right in God's eyes and Judgement will fall onMelissa and Tammy and when they have to stand before the God O mighty they are in some trouble for telling Tammy kids not Melissa she didin't make those babies and will never that it is okay to be gay. It is not okay to be gay so America don't let the world tell you that it is because it not America lies to you and you know why America lies to us because Satan is in this world and he is called the father of lies.
