Do you concede to the fact that you don't know either? Where is your evidence to prove what you've claimed about them? When the oldest child is 25, and they have just now applied for SSI, the facts actually point more towards me being right than you. But again, this is all just speculation on both of our ends.
...so you retract the sickness story , is that it..?

Huh?? The article says she suffered a "serious illness," which caused her to quit work and apply for SSI. That wasn't my statement, it's right there in the link I posted.

Stop trying to flip this around on me... you were the one making claims and assumptions, so either put up or shut up.

Also in the article (which you obviously didn't read), they posted an ad looking for assistance with starting a family - and this guy responded. I'm not even sure what you're getting at here! The man involved hasn't denied being the donor, or stated their story is untrue, so what would be his motivation for lying?

And FWIW, I do know men who would happily do something like this... if it didn't require actually being pregnant for 9 months (and giving birth), I'd be glad to help a gay couple too.

I was referring to their overall financial situation, now and for the last 25 years. I only know what details were in the article, and anything beyond that is speculation.

Kansas is a pass thru state. If it can happen anywhere, I'll be Kansas.

re gizmo post...why don't you stop defending what seems so suspicious then, and you also agree to being without any stuff to offer help. The lesbians in question should be hauled in, examined.. and in fact thats whats happening

I doubt it can stand outside of Kansas. There is a book "Whats the mater with Kansas" It shows how Kansas has turned into an extreme uber religious nut job state. I lived there and can attest to this fact. Its ugly, dirty, and has no appeal even if you put aside all the religious crap. When Dr. Tiller was shot there were people standing out with signs supporting the assassination. It shown Kansas for the sick place it is. If you watch the movie WTMWK its sick watching these idiots run around trying to push the country into following it sick twisted mentality of bible thumping. The only good thing even close to Kansas is KC and that is on the Missouri side. I lived in Wichita, a dump of a town where if you don't have anything to do the trip adviser says, try going to the flying moose antique store. Where the wind never stops blowing which is my slogan for the state "Kansas it blows" Or "Kansas at least were not Oklahoma" Look up on YouTube and see all the travel videos of people going through Kansas. They all look into the camera with a look of WTF dude? Is this a moon scape?

It suggests to me basing public policy towards sex acts is silly. Gays insist on being a protected class but what protected class can switch their identity. I'm black I'll always be black but evidently gays can go back to being straight.
