NPR's Morning Edition today told the story of the 100,000 children waiting for adoption in the US, which got me thinking. Our wing-nut countrymen & women cite moral values as their defining raison d'etre. They encourage young pregnant women to have children rather than commit the ultimate sin of having an abortion, many of which end up being put up for adoption for a variety of reasons.
So, the solution. Let's have each evangelical family do their christian, moral duty, and adopt one of these children who are waiting to find adoptive parents. With Rove claiming numbers like 4 million, it shouldn't be a problem to find 100,000 willing volunteers with high morals. And let's hammer them on their lack of moral values when they don't step forward. Who knows, it may even add some diversity to the red states.
Be gentle, it's my first diary.
