Re: Obama Doesn't Want Daughters"Punished With A B

It amazes me how much it costs and the HUGE amount of red tape that a couple looking to adopt has to go through. I understand and expect groups to do thorough background checks on people wanting to adopt, but why does it costs TENS of thousands of dollars and a year+ wait?? Any bum on the street can "father" a baby for nothing. God chooses to "open the wombs" of many a bar hopping babe after their (many) one-night stands, and yet a couple has to practically prove themselves worthy of heaven based on their own works before they are granted a son/daughter as part of the adoption process.

I work at one of the largest birthing centers on the left coast (about 9-10000) babies are year) and we have a large fertility center. We have parents from all over the world use surrogate mothers and then have their babies here. Talk about million dollar babies........

I have been thinking that this past week! Imagine if he DID ask her and she accepted! Shoot, I would vote for HER as president before McCain.

Rice as a running mate would certainly appease the people who just want to see a female in the presidency. VP would make her next in line. And let's face it, McCain is no spring chicken. So who he chooses as running mate really DOES matter.

She would be a good reason to vote for McCain. The other reason would be that I'd rather see McCain in there than to see Obama get in.

You WOULD??? After what she has done to the Israelis?

Dr. Rice may be a competent, accomplished, and decent person, but I don't believe she would be an effective or competent world leader.
