9. A baby is a baby.

Be it black, brown, red or white, no one baby is worth more than another because of it's pigment count. To claim otherwise is racist. Just because Judge Roberts may have sunk to this level doesn't mean we should. So I reject arguments that he should have adopted a baby of color. At least he adopted, which is more than most of us can say.

I haven't seen anything in the MSM or on the Web about his kids being from Ireland. I understand that adopting in Ireland is far from an assembly line process. If it's true that his kids are Irish, I want to know how he did it and if any laws were bent or broken.
