NY TIMES INVESTIGATES ADOPTION RECORDS OF SUPREME COURT NOMINEE'S CHILDREN
**Exclusive**
The DRUDGE REPORT has uncovered a plot in the NEW YORK TIMES' newsroom to look into the adoption of the children of Supreme Court Nominee John G. Roberts.
The TIMES has investigative reporter Glen Justice hot on the case to investigate adoption records of Judge Roberts’ two young children, Josie age 5 and Jack age 4, a top source reveals.
Judge Roberts and his wife Jane adopted the children when they each were infants.
Both children were adopted from Latin America.
A TIMES insider claims the look into the adoptions are part of the paper's "standard background check."
Roberts’ young son Jack delighted millions of Americans during his father’s Supreme Court nomination announcement ceremony when he wouldn’t stop dancing while the President and his father spoke to a national television audience.
Previously the WASHINGTON POST Style section had published a story criticizing the outfits Josie’s and Jack’s mother had them wear at the announcement ceremony.
One top Washington official with knowledge of the NEW YORK TIMES’ plans declared: “Trying to pry into the lives of the Roberts’ family like this is despicable. Children’s lives should be off limits. The TIMES is putting politics over fundamental decency.”
One top Republican official when told of the situation was incredulous. “This can’t possibly be true?”
Developing...
What are they trying to gain from this that isn't "for the children?"

OMG!!!
It's http://www.lapa.com
Profuse apologies and thanks.
It is well established that the New York Times has as much credibility as the National Enquirer. It is agenda driven and relevant only to hose whose agenda it shares. Why anyone reads it or cares what they are doing is beyond me.
Looked like decent everyday kids to me.
That's okay, some of my best friends are paralegals :-)

Some of the remarks I am reading leads me to believe that many posting on this forum failed seventh grade World History.
I guess they were to busy learning politically correct ways to put on a condom.

I don't think it's that as much as people have been duped by liberal diversity propaganda into thinking that there is one 'Latino race.'
Look at any Cuban and any Puerto Rican and that notion will likely be dispelled. Central and South Americans and Carribeans are a very multiethnic, with indigenous, European and African slave-trade blood.
South America is heavily populated with recent (~100 years) European immigration, Argentina in particular thanks to its coziness with Fascist regimes.
In my experience many central Americans have much more distinct Indian features. South Americans I know look like the Spaniards and Germans and Italians that populate the region.
There is no 'Latino' race any more than there is one 'American' (USA) race.
Its interesting. I remember visiting my parents in Boca Raton back in the 1990s, when all of the landscapers/gardners were Haitians speaking French Creole. Now, they are all Guatemalan and speak Quiche, NOT Spanish.
He showed me his kindergarten class picture and I couldn't even pick him out! LOL!
Yep .. That's how I found out about my one friend being a blonde when he was little .. it was white blonde like Jack's
It totally blew us away because his hair is jet black now>>>>>>>
That is amazing! Check this out: My son had board-straight hair until puberty--now its so curly its almost well, I can't find the proper adjective, its just really really curly. If you comb it out when its long, he has a fro like Art Garfunkel used to wear....Really weird, huh?
Larry David was shooting a scene at the HB Pier for his HBO show a few months ago. Seems like it was a beach scene and they wanted to make him look like he was being rescued by the lifeguards. He got unlucky and picked a very windy/cold day - it was probably a bit more realistic than he wanted. He was in the freezing water without a wetsuit for 5-10 minutes per take (everyone else got to wear one). Yipes!
He should have kept out and paid late fees on one of Ann Coulter's books...then she might stop whining about him.
"My grandfather is off the boat from Italy. He is from Northern Italy, near Pisa. These people are blue eyed, fair skinned blondes. They do not fit the stereotype of the Italian."
Yes, the south Italians tend to look Mediterranean. The northerners can look rather Teutonic (i.e. Bavarian.)
I wonder how she's doing after her first year at McKinney and Company. Is she worth the hundred grand they're paying her?

I can speak from a domestic and an international adoption view, and neither have worked for us yet. After a couple of failed domestic,we have lost faith in that. IMO, domestic adoption is easier overall for most people (just not us). For international there is A LOT more paper-chasing-documentation, paperwork, physicals, etc. etc. but you can reasonably expect the adoption to be final when you arrive home with your children.
If ever - I to speak from experience.
But pre-plastic surgery, she looked like Web Hubbell.
Not really .. depends on your family genes
My hair is straight, as is my hubby's and 2 of my 3 children .. though my one daughter has very very curly hair
I had 2 aunts that had hair like this
When you go down to Baja, the Indians are their underclass; like you said, many haven't even integrated into Mexican society or speak Spanish, so when they come up to the US, they're really fish out of water.
>>"This is the worst of gutter politics I've heard. Leave the babies alone. This repulsive action of the Times has just secured the confirmation of Judge Roberts(even though it was not their intent)."<<
Ding! We have a winner!
The law of "unintended consequences" coming home to roost!
{very nicely put, BTW.}
A.A.C.
LOL @ Art's fro!! My husbands hair was straight, too, but now it's curly. He keeps it cut very short so it doesn't curl up.
I am the opposite. When I was very small I had very, very curly hair. Now I have a very slight wave in my hair, but nowhere near as curly as it was. I guess I had grey eyes for about my first 6 weeks then they went brown.
