Lesbian Lawmaker and the "gift of life"

Rep. Christine Johnson a member of the Utah house of Representatives has announced that she is acting as a surrogate for two Salt Lake County gay men.

Indeed she is the biological mother of the child and one of the men the biological father. The third member of this troika will have no parental rights under Utah Law.

Needless to say the usual suspects will spin this child as a wonder and in time, if the outcome is not too disastrous the child will become a pawn in the battle to normalize "gay" adoption.

But the first practical question to be asked is - is the infant to be breast fed? And if so how?

And then - how will Christine Johnson really feel about handing over her child when the time comes? Surrogacy arrangements have caused heartache from the outset and when Gays are involved the stakes only get higher.

And how normal is it for a mother to want hand over a new born to someone else - let alone two males?

Call me intolerant if you like but to me this is sheer insanity as well as utterly selfish.
