Material Bitch

....

Madonna is really pissing me off more and more each day.

I feel like Oprah Winfrey after she gave The Onion a good review only to find out that the author fictionalized his memoir.

First, I reported here that Madonna was so much better than Angelina Jolie, because contrary to rumors she was NOT going to adopt a baby, but support an orphanage in Africa.

Then, amidst recurring rumors back and forth: she's adopting...she's not adopting...her husband reportedly was against the adoption.

THEN...she goes and adopts, not just any ole orphan...she has to find a child in an orphanage that is not an orphan, but had family who cares about him and visits him every chance he gets, hoping to take him back home someday. YUCH!

The baby's father was told that Madonna is a "nice Christian lady" - obviously not knowing she plans to convert all the kids in the orphanage to Kaballah. He does not speak English and could nto understand all the court papers - which were in English. he was convinced that it was best, though, by his minister (sound familiar).

When the press got down on her for using money to buy a child (not to mention a white woman buying a black baby) and violating laws in Malawi...she said she was "hurt" and that she didn’t do anything no one else could do....yeah, like we all have private jets and an entourage of people to fly our newly selected purchases home from Africa...and then go to the gym hours after his special delivery.

As if all that wasn't enough, now, faced with violating both Malawai and British law by bringing this child back to the UK...Madonna is now reportedly consulting Angelina Jolie and likely will adopt in the California, the land of almost NO adoption restrictions!

Comments:
No, emailhosting, not the whole world. In fact neither she nor anyone else HAS TO take care of anyone but themselves and kids born to them.

What i think Madonna ought to do is not be so damn hypocritical. She has a charity set up to help AIDS ORPHANS. Orphans are children who have NO FAMILY. She then shose a child, not because he was orphaned by AIDS - a child who is not even an orphan...not even by abandonment. He has a large extended loving, caring family. She chose him because he was the CUTEST, not the neediest!

Why take this child from his family and culture simply because she is rich? His father never stopped visiting him. he did not relinquish his right to parent his son - his son was in foster care until he remarried and was able to bring him home. He thinks that Madonna will care for him and educate him and bring him back to malwai. Maybe she will, but he will not know the language or the culture. He will be an outsider there - and here.

No amount of money makes that better. It's cultural genocide.

With so many real orphans -- why THIS boy? Why rip him from a loving family???
