Rosie gave $9 million to the widows and children of 9/11. I don't know her personally, and I'm sure neither do most of you, but she was the most vocal about people with $ should give money after 9/11, and that's what she did. Hardly hypocritical.
Re: Gay adoptions- "you need a license to drive a car or own a gun, but any a**hole can have a kid." Just b/c you have a mom and a dad doesn't mean you are going to be brought up in a wonderful, loving environment.
I am concetrating on family law at a law school very involved in the gay adoption issue. I have had professors who are gay and want to be able to adopt children with their partners. Why should any child be forced to stay in a system as awful as the Florida Department of Children and Families just b/c the people who want to adopt them are the same sex? What should matter in adoption is how good or bad the person is. Not who they love. As long as the child is loved isn't that enough? I think so.
For those of you who will bash me and say I'm gay or something to that affect, go ahead. I am not gay. However, I did have a pretty bad childhood and believe that no child should ever suffer. If 2 men or 2 women can make 1 child's life better why should they be stopped?
Just my 2 cents.
And please, don't give me any bible quotes. I am well aware of the various interpretations on homosexuality in regards to the bible.
