Octomom®

That woman with a clown car for a uterus has applied for a trademark on the word "octomom."

According to two applications filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office by Suleman on April 10, and obtained by E! News, the enterprising 33-year-old is looking for the right to attach her infamous handle to (surprise) future TV projects, as well as to Octomom-branded disposable diapers and children's wear, including dresses, pants, shirts and textile diapers.

She's also in negotiations for a reality show.

Octomom Vs. Octogranny

You've got to be eight (heh) kinds of crazy to go on national television to fight with your own mother.

Lesbians Blamed For Octomommy

Tony Perkins at the Family Research Council knows where the fault lies in the octomommy case. Lesbians did it!

When Nadya Suleman became a mom for the 14th time, she raised more than a few eyebrows. The drama grew by national proportions when details trickled out that Suleman was not only unmarried, but chose to have multiple embryos implanted in her womb through in-vitro fertilization. Last week, taxpayers learned that they would be partially liable for the family's care through hundreds of dollars in food stamps and disability payments. The news fueled even more conviction that the fertility doctor should have refused the procedure.

But is he really to blame--or are our courts? In California, the state Supreme Court made it virtually impossible for a physician to exercise his own judgment after two lesbians sued in 2001 for the right to be artificially inseminated over the doctors' personal or social objections. Last year, in Benitez v. North Coast Women's Care Medical Group, the justices ruled that anti-discrimination laws trumped physicians' rights. In so doing, the court tied the hands of the medical field, leaving little recourse against irresponsible and unhealthy decisions like Suleman's.

Got that? This isn't the fault of a deranged baby machine with a completely unethical doctor, (who has another patient pregnant with quadruplets, by the way). It's the fault of lesbians who demanded their legal right to be parents.

Octomom Goes Begging

That woman with a clown car for a uterus has launched a website asking for cash and baby supply donations. Meanwhile Page Six is claiming that NBC paid up to seven figures for Octomommy's interview on Tuesday. NBC says "Bullshit, we paid nothing." And folks in California are going nuts because of this:

A big share of the financial burden of raising Nadya Suleman's 14 children could fall on the shoulders of California's taxpayers, compounding the public furor in a state already billions of dollars in the red. Even before the 33-year-old single, unemployed mother gave birth to octuplets last month, she had been caring for her six other children with the help of $490 a month in food stamps, plus Social Security disability payments for three of the youngsters. The public aid will almost certainly be increased with the new additions to her family. Also, the hospital where the octuplets are expected to spend seven to 12 weeks has requested reimbursement from Medi-Cal, the state's Medicaid program, for care of the premature babies, according to the Los Angeles Times. The cost has not been disclosed.

I watched the NBC interview and couldn't understand why Suleman wasn't asked about her duck lips. Seriously. Who paid for THOSE? Amanda Lepore must be SO jealous. I am so in love with this entire story, just because of the way the Freeper types are twisting themselves into logical ropes.
