"Twins who accidentally got married" is probably an urban legend

January 16, 2008 4:56am

As someone who has adopted a child from Russia, II can tell you that the Judge in the case actually wanted us to change the birthdate on our daughter's birth certificate to better suit our family's situation. How she thought it would help is really beyond me. My wife and I insisted that we leave well enough alone. We didn't want to have our child feel like all of her birthdates ere a lie when she came of age.

I do understand that adoption laws are differant from country to country.

So what you are saying Cory is that ther Riech was evil, but the Axis wasn't? The Germans have to have this thrown in thier face but we can give the Japanese and the Italians get a pass?

If we are going to talk about the companies that supplied our enemies in World War 2, we should do them all.

But fine lets stay with in the scope of the article, where is the mention of Ford? (or for that matter GM) If slave labor is a crime then both companies are guilty of it. Ford was sued in 1998 over it.

The fact of the matter is that the article way to narrow in scope.

I notice that Ford and Mercedes were left out of this discussion again.

And since were going after some companies how about the Japanese?

Mitsubishi made some pretty good fighter planes out of American scrap.

Or maybe just maybe we can just put this all behind us. Who am I kidding.
