A gesture from Putin

Remember when Obama was caught off-mike reassuring Medvedev that after the election he would be much easier to deal with, and for Medvedev to pass that on to Putin? Well, Putin doesn't seem to be interested. He has signed into law a bill forbidding adoptions of Russian children by Americans. According to the New York Daily News, there are 740,00 Russian children not in the custody of their parents, and only 18,000 Russians who have applied to adopt. Who is going to adopt the rest of those childrenthose children?

Scott Johnson writes about it here: http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2012/12/reset-this.php

Bridgett Johnson also writes about it at PJ Media, but, in an editorial lapse, PJ Media cut off her article in the middle, so I will not link to it.
