Madonna: a hijacking

One of my fellow blogger,Sandra, who writes very well and for whom I have tremendous respect put into words exactly what I wanted to say about the Madona scandal.

Below is part of her post and if you click on this link you will find the entire post...

I think it's important to mention that the die-hard anti-adoption people LOVE this sort of situation. With the media being total pinheads about adoption in general, the anti-crowd jumps in immediately with their garbage to hijack the story and set the agenda in a way that they hope will cast all adoption in a negative light.

There are many out there ... look to Austrialia for some of the most vociferous ... whose entire goal in life is to remove the option of adoption from the world.

It is vital that those supporting adoption ... those of us who understand deeply the consequences of institutional life and hopelessness because our kids remind us every day of what could have been ... fight these nuts with everything we have and realize that the news we are getting has been manipulated to make adoption look evil, immoral, etc.

Remember this before swallowing news versions of events hook, line and sinker: people who would deny all children a loving adoptive family are hoping you'll take the bait.
