Melee Weapon Mastery

[Yogibear41]

If you have weapon specialization Morningstar, can you take Melee Weapon Mastery(bludgeoning) and Melee Weapon Mastery(piercing) and have the bonus's stack for each of them when using a morning star?

I wouldn't think so...that is a bonus from the same source would it not be

Normally bonuses from the same source don't stack. So enhancement bonuses like an gauntlets, belt of giant strength, or spell bulls strength.
Untyped bonuses do stack. As do most dodge bonuses.

The feat doesn't say this is a competence bonus, or morale bonus. Just "+2 bonus on damage rolls," so it sounds like an untyped bonus to me.
Covered in the errata, so it doesn't stack without a houserule. (I don't see a reason to not ignore the errata as a houserule, it's not like anotehr 2 points of damage is going to break a fighter.)

Check out the Player's Handbook 2 errata, I believe this is the exact scenario they clarify.
