Madonna Undeterred: Adopting Second African Baby

Posted by Karen Murphy

Madonna adopted DavidNope, one's not enough!  At least, not when you're Madonna.  After donating tons of money for an obviously much-needed Kabbalah center in the African country of Malawi where she and husband Guy Ritchie stole bought adopted son David Banda, the happy parents have decided that they need another Malawian child to complete the set.

While it's wonderful for little David that he'll have the best little sister or brother money can buy, and wonderful too for all the Malawian Kabbalists who've been waiting for years for their own multi-million-dollar center, I still have to wonder whether all this money could not be better spent somehow.  On frivolous things like, I don't know, food (more than five million residents are experiencing an ongoing severe "food security crisis".  Which means:  they're starving). Or maybe medicine (the life expectancy in Malawi is now as low as 36.5 years since the onslaught there of AIDS).

How about it, Madonna?  Aren't you old enough yet to get your priorities straight?
