The International Orphan Myth
Most of us believe there are basketsful of orphaned babies the world over just waiting for an international adoption. The truth is more sullied and brutal than that ideal. The international children being adopted already have parents and they are being sold to the highest bidder.
Down Syndrome Baby in a Box
This incredible image is allegedly Sarah Palin’s 2008 Christmas card. I say “allegedly” because I am hoping against all reason Sarah Palin did not put her “son” Trig — an 8.5 month-old Down Syndrome baby — in a box eating a bow just to create a “cute” Christmas card.

A soldier’s widow was forced by the United States Military to not only fight for her right to her dead husband’s sperm, but she was also pressed to dig into the muck and mire of a rigid military system that was unkind to the living remnants of a fallen body. Kynesha Dhanoolal won the battle, but lost her war.
