I am shocked and outraged to learn that the German Chancellor has adopted a Russian soldier. After the McGreevey scandal, the last thing we need is for another Western leader to involve himself in this kind of perverted, immoral . . .
What? He didn't adopt a Russian soldier? He adopted a Russian toddler? Never mind.

It's like a sitcom... when the writters have all left for greener pastures and you are about to get cancelled, you have a baby, hoping noone will notice how much your show sucks.
