"I have yet to understand why some fall all over her..."


Probably because she essential to Hollywood's economy... She's there to do the **** jobs that other Hollywoods actresses won't... : )

That's when Jolie went global: "No child left behind means no child left behind. And that isn't [just] with what we feel we can give right now, but with whatever it takes. Britain gives three-times more than us right now. They are not richer than us. So I don't know what the great excuse is."

Perhaps she'd better much wiser if she asked those questions to the mullah's, the sudanese, the angolans, the chinese? Why, why...do they always try to make it OUR problem! We can't help those who won't help their own, but prefer to kill them rather than having an educated population. Oh wait. We're doing that in Iraq and Afghanastan...I guess she should be singing our praises, eh?

It's amazing where big bazookas can get you in this world. Did Angelina Jolie go to college? I doubt it. I think she and Brad Pitt make Tom and Katie look sane. Jolie is so bizarre. Covered in tattoos, always in black, cavorting around the world adopting poor black children. She and Pitt are as pretentious and self-possessed as actors can be. They creep me out.

Noy sure why you'd be so negative about her and her mission. I find it rather admirable.

I thought that "no child left behind" was a terrible failure.

Me, too. I know some liberal school teachers and they absolutely despise No Child Left Behind.

Britain gives three-times more than us right now. They are not richer than us. So I don't know what the great excuse is."

I guess humanitarian efforts only count when the government pays for them. The U.S. leads the world in private charitable giving, but that's only horse manure, according to liberals.

Simple. The Road to Hell is full of good intentions.

This is one woman who, as far as I'm concerned, can pretty much say anything she wants. And I think the same photo rules that apply her to Ann Coulter should apply to her.

I would say she should shut up and look pretty. Alas I'm 20 years to late for even that.

She and Brad should show us how...giving ALL their money to the world's puuur churdrun. I'm more concerned about their child. Will these two airheads even be able to raise one normal individual?

To use your tax dollars for a "global no child left behind" program that was mediocre at best in our own country? I mean I admire her too, but her and her mission aren't my "two" reasons... : )

I was switched off her as soon as I heard she used to carry around a vial of Billy Bob Thorton's blood around her neck as a token of their mutual affection.

Anything she says must be regarded with some degree of suspicion.

Because she is stupid. To say that "Laura Bush should nudge her husband" shows just how stupid Jolie is. And how much her agenda is based in left-wing agitprop. Jolie is also an Arabist, has shown sympathy toward the so-called Palestinians, but zero for the Israelis, and she's pals with Queen Noor, who is an anti-semite.

She's having her baby in Africa. How pretentious can you get! America is not good enough for her???

What is her "mission" other than to offer simplistic solutions to complex problems, to by implication indict the US for not doing enough, and to use all this to promote her movie career?

She's hot.....

But so is my wife.

Plus my wife's smarter, apparently.

Ever mindful of why these people have to have their lines written for them!
