MARY CHENEY GIVES BIRTH TO HAL BURTON

Dick Cheney's daughter, Mary, has given birth to a baby boy whom she is planning to bring up with her long-time lesbian partner, Heather Poe. The beaming Vice President and Mrs. Cheney visited Mary in the hospital and helped choose the name. While Hal Burton topped the Vice President's list, other names he suggested were Earl Derrick and Mo Rich. The couple will not say who the father is, but DNA samples point to either David Crosby, Karl Rove or the Vice President.
