Here's the Cliff Notes, you do the rest!
THE CHRISTMAS GIFT -- THE ADOPTION OF AN UNWANTED CHILD
Since my response was to the adoption of the child, I just naturally assumed you would key in on the words "adopt" or holly molly, maybe even the word "adoption"........
Please forgive me for being so assumptive......believe me, in your case, it won't happen again.......
You have no points, only your perception of what you think I said. Your opinion is colored but your own [ersponal bias that has -0- to do with me or my opinion. BTW, I do not care what you think. Hope this helps.
BTW you missed my amendment post 45 for your 43. Hope you have the clarification. What are you saying anyway?
I'm 57....a part of me wants so much to go...but I don't think I could pass the physical.
God Bless This Man and his peers.
SEMPER FI
Cool it.
I have nothing against American babies being adopted. I have a problem with challenging someone who decides to adopt a Chinese baby for his/her family. This has happened a couple of times lately on threads that I've noticed, and I think its wrong. American babies are no better or worse than Chinese babies, and I have no problem with Chinese babies growing up here as Americans.
As an AMERICAN, I object.
GOD Bless you Col. I wish that I could join you there! I hate this darned med retirement!
Shoot fast,straight,& offen. aim center mast and squeeze the trigger!
SEMPER FI!!
NEWBIE, A CHILD IS A CHILD and any individual who has a problem with the adoption of a child based solely on that child’s country of birth is nothing more than a racist!
The following statements made by you NEWBIE, have absolutely no business being issued on this conservative/christian site and are not only an embarrassment to the entire Freeper community but are also a disgrace to each and every individual who has shown the compassion in adopting a foreign child! You sir owe them an apology!
Here are your statements:
“we have enough "immigrants" in this country.”
“What do you have against AMERICAN babies for adoption?”
“I am pro AMERICAN born adoption,”
And your final statement to J.N. who stated that he has no problem with Chinese babies growing up here as Americans:
"As an AMERICAN, I object."
My suggestion to you NEWBIE is to lurk around for a while longer till you get the gist of what this site is all about. And what this site ISN'T about is discrimination against the innocent simply due to their country of origin.........
No he can't. There are rules.
Well how about this: Only China and India have more people than the United States.
We have enough people in this country--it's time to sharply curtail immigration--and I don't care if it's immigration from Sweeden--the country's too crowded; enough already!
Adoption isnt a matter of immigration but rather a business of politics. As I was trying to point out to Wind guy earlier that there is a freeper who started a thread detailing how hard it was for them to adopt an American child and they were nearing the end of their trying when God blessed them with a series of events that ultimately led to their adopting a baby directly from the birth mother.
Due to the legalese in this country, it is becomming harder and harder to adopt what with the original parents now being allowed to recover the children they have given up for adoption.
The difficulty, the legality and cost involved in adopting American children is now forcing many parents-in-waiting to seek alternative routes in finding children and unforunately for American children, the route most accessable is via foreign adoption agencies.
Isn't that the truth!
I don't think anyone has anything against adopting American kids...just against the American adoption process. My husband and I have talked about adopting a Chinese girl one day...that doesn't mean we dislike American kids. (Shoot, we've got 5 between us and one more on the way).
As another poster once said, "To the contrary, they like American kids so much they thought they'd add one more."
