Looks like Melinda finally found someone to publish a letter to the editor.
The thing is a novel, so it won't all fit here.

US adoption fraud
03/13/2004 16:02
The United States Government, through all three branches of government, has
managed to legalize fraudulent and coercive adoption practices, in order to
provide wealthier families with children, by violating the rights of parents
and grandparents to raise the children.
For couples who wait until later in life to try to have children, in order to
establish themselves in high paying careers, infertility often becomes a
problem, and these wealthy individuals feel entitled to the children of poorer
parents. The USA government agrees with them. While these practices take
place all over the USA, I am most familiar with abuses in the state of Kansas,
and will provide information that primarily relates to that state.

How bizarre--especially since Russia is the adoption crime capital of the
world. I'd comment something in Russian, but I can't transliterate into
Latin.

It's probably not in the Russian language version then. What's really
bizarre is that Pravda is now considered an indie paper and sells Pravda
gear. I've got a TASS/ITAR t-shirt from the Reagan-Gorby summit.

Pravda picks up stuff from other sources as well. I don't now what
determines it. It's been publishing ,without permission, Justin Raimondo's
commentaries from www.antiwar.com to the delight of the NR/Frum crowd and
has pissed off Justin. to no end.

unaware that the receptionist in that doctor"s office was on a mission to find
a baby for her friend as soon as possible.">

Nowhere in this rambling, incoherent 5,000+ word piece of fiction does
Melinda inform the reader that this was a crisis pregnancy, undiscovered until
well into the third trimester.

Nowhere does she mention that she called adoption agencies without her
daughter's consent within hours of learning she was going to be a grandmother.

Nowhere does she mention the fact that she informed the "new doctor" of her
daughter's intent to relinquish.

<"Prior to that day, Angela had never even considered the adoption of her
child, but agreed to meet with the receptionist"s friend for supper after her
appointment.">

"Angela" may have never even considered the adoption of her child, but
Angela's mother, Melinda, forgets to mention that she had already made other
plans.

<"Pressure was applied to meet again the next evening with the potential
adoptive couple"s lawyer.'>

Pressure from whom, Melinda? Pressure from whom?

It doesn't look as though there's been *any* editing. The girl is
referred to as Angela for the most part, but as Tarin in two places. I
imagine a reader who is unfamiliar with the story might be confused.

They got ahold of the report I was asked to write for the special 1503
committee of the United nations two years ago. THe alterations were
not approved though. It's public record, so I guess they can print
what they want, but I don't see why they changed some names and not
others. I wasn't aware that they were printing it, but it doesn't
matter. I just hope they didn't chop it too drastically as to change
it's content. The original report was ten pages long, the length
that was recommended to me by the assistant to Dr. Jual Miguel Petit,
special rapporteur on the sale of children.

I actually never spoke to Tarin's doctor until long long later. Get
your story straight for once.
"Angela" may have never even considered the adoption of her child, but Angela's mother, Melinda, forgets to mention that she had already made other plans.

I had called for information. Nothing more. They kept calling me
back, making plans for her, without ever consulting her. I only
talked to that agency for a day, before telling them to go to hell, as
it only took them that long to make threats about sueing us, if Tarin
didn't give them her baby, though they had never even spoken to her.
(their lawyer was Alan Hazlett, just in case anyone is interested,
though I never actually spoke to him)



this is one of the e-mail correspondences concerning when it was first
decided to handle the matter through the special committee. It was a
short time later that I was asked to write the report for the
committee. It was a very rush deal. I was given only a few days to
research and write a ten page report to introduce the matter to the
special committee.

Subject: RE: USA- adoption



Dear Melinda,

Thanks for your message. Given that we have now received many cases
alleging
adoption irregularities in the US, and some of these allege violations
which
occurred before the creation of the mandate of the Special Rapporteur
(in 1990),
he has decided that the best course of action would be to give all the
information to the 1503 Committee. I have attached a draft of the
standard
letter which the secretariat of the 1503 Committee sends to individual
petitioners. This would mean that, if the Committee agrees that the
cases fall
within their mandate, they would present these to the Government and
ask for
information as to the measures being taken to address the pattern of
abuse.
However, because this procedure is confidential, no feedback is given
to the
individuals concerned.

The time scale for all this is as follows: All material to be
presented to the
Committee must be submitted by May, (so all cases which I receive in
the next 3
months will also be included) the Committee will then meet in August
to decide
which situations they will take up, and then final decisions
concerning each
case are made the following April.

(See attached file: 1503eng2.doc)

Best wishes,
Jennifer

Actually, it's Melinda nobody wants to hear. Nobody disputes the claims in
the case, just revisionist history. I have a tape of Tarin on the TV news
and she's very compelling.

I was wondering why Pravda printed your opus, but then I figured it out:

They were laughing their asses off.


"Boris, look at this letter from United States."
"Natasha, don't tell me they finally got moose and squirrel."
"No darlink, something REALLY important."
[reads Melinda's 'letter']
"Natasha, this is worse than Central Committee communique."
"Yes Boris, worse English grammar and spelling than I have ever seen."
"Well darlink, what shall we do?"
"Why, publish in Pravda of course. Is good for laugh at oh-so-superior

Nor should it be considered a vice, IMO. We pay for the privilege of having
some support system in place, albeit a fragmented and often inadequate system.
Social security, unemployment compensation and medicare are just a few of the
programs we fund directly.

The fact is that every society has members who can't make their own way, for
one reason or another, just as every society has those who won't make their own
way. How we treat the former is a fair measure of the worth of our culture.

I've seen Maury a few times. Yeah it really is a case of spot the
father - eeek! I'm waiting with bated breath to find out who daddy is
to one child whose mother has already had ten men paternity tested and
we still can't pin daddy down. And Jenny Jones, and Queen Latifah, and
Springer and Ricki Lake and and and ad nauseum - their participants
are all nuts, including the audiences. I've never come across a
nation of people who bawl so much. All the parents are whingy whiny
weepy babies, while the kids all need a good clip over the ear and
need their mouths washed out with soap. The guest psychologists are as
stoopid as the participants they judge. How can you stand it? It's
mind boggling. Maybe it's the result of all that generational
inbreeding that goes in over there.

Since you're forming your opinion of the US based on what you see on cable television, may I suggest tuning into one of Maury's "Who's Your Daddy?" paternity shows. I swear, some of those folks are a walking advertisement for infant adoption, don'tcha think : )
The problem with that is the adoptive parents on these shows are just as nuts.

I'm so glad that you've gotten in the swing of US culture . This is what the
Iraq war is really about. Opening up markets No doubt Maury will soon show
up on middleeast television. (A friend of mine lived in the Emirites for
several years and got to watch re-runs of Nanny and the Professor.)

I like Queen and a drag king friend of mine was on Ricki's show twice. As
for Jerry--he's moved back to Ohio. Yea!
Anyway, today was an I've Got a Secret Show. The best were two lovely
couples, Jeremy and Erma and Christy and "64": (pronounced six four, not
sixty-four.) Jeremy and 64 were best friends, So first Jeremy comes out
and tells Irma that he's knocked up Christy, 64;s girlfriend. As you can
imagine, Irma is not happy--especially since she's got an 8-month old with
him. Then poor 64 comes out and gets the news. Boy, he isn't happy AT ALL.
Jeremy is about as smart as an end table. He sits there smiling and
wondering why everybody is so pissed off. Then there was this other
couple. They haven't gotten around to getting married yet though the have 4
kids in 5 years. The guy has been doing a friend of hers for 1 1/2 years,
despite the fact that his secret is giving him migraines and stomach cramps.
Go figure.

Take heart, though, Di. Remember that Maury is an adoptive father. I
simply cannot understand why Conne Chung stays married to him.

And how could I forget: eat the rich!

Eat the rich?


Jonathan Swift's 'A Modest Proposal' sarcastically suggested anthropophagy
as a solution to the Irish famine.

"A young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious,
nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled,
and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout."

And I suppose it could have been an alternative to adoption in past ages.
But I fear the fully grown 'rich' might be a bit tough and stringy. I'm not
too sure I'd fancy fricasseed Getty or Gates.

A fine old anarchist sentiment. I've got a great t-shirt from an
anarca-feminist collective in Chicago with a woman with a fork chasing a
little rich dudes and dudetts into a frying pan. Jonathan Swift's 'A Modest Proposal' sarcastically suggested anthropophagy as a solution to the Irish famine.

You're sadly misinformed on economics. I'm not surprised.

Guess what happens when you raise the wages at the bottom to a "living
wage"? Oh, right, you wouldn't know, so I'll 'plain to you:

1) people with wages just above that demand a raise. After all, their
work was worth more in the economy before you raised the bottom. So
wages go up all over.

2) that jacks inflation, which raises prices, which means that wages buy
less. Your folks getting a "living wage" are again stuck with
insufficient buying power.

3) Employers who can't afford the higher wages start to do without
employees. Unemployment goes up.

4) At some point the economy tanks from all this, and nobody except the
rich has anything.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

As an employer for the past 24 years I can tell you that there are
many factors that cause inflation. Keeping the working poor
impoverished is not one of them.

Jonathan Swift's 'A Modest Proposal' sarcastically suggested anthropophagy as a solution to the Irish famine.

Maury types roam the streets of Columbus, Ohio. My favorite was the woman
with 4 kids at the convenience store near my house. They appeared to have 4
different fathers and were sticky dirty and suffered from cookie snot. She
was with her current Great Love (he was carriyng a skateboard for some
reason.) and they were buying cheap wine (or was it beer?) and cigarettes.
The kids were hungry and whining. She screams at them to shut up. "I
ain't got no money. I aint' got no money. Wait til' tomorrow when your dad
gives me some." So the kids start climbing up the shelves! The owner
freaks out You can tell he's got lawsuit paranoia and he tries to get the
kids down. Moo is totally oblivious to the whole thing while she grab asses
her boyfriend..

Then there was the lovely woman who one afternoon punched her kid in the
head repeatedly at a nearby playground. Even I was offended by this, but
before I could say anything another mother came over and grabbed the kid.
And let's not get started on groceries, Taco Bell., and the bus with its
SUV baby-carrier mamas.
