Whut? Angelina can't decide who to vote for? - Page 2

Welll, since international refugee issues are her area of primary political focus, it seems perfectly reasonable for her to wait until she feels the candidates have addressed the issue in some way or another.

If she doesn't feel that has been done (or neither candidate has staked the position she'd like) then it sounds like she is being smart rather than stupid.

That's a fair argument you guys make for caring what she thinks. Yes, some celebrities do make a considerable contribution to causes outside their acting/singing careers, and, when taken in that light, if you removed the title of celebrity, they could probably called philanthropist or activist. And I suppose it's worthwhile to care what they think.

If Angelina Jolie votes for McCain, I'll totally excommunicate her from my crazy sex dreams.

These issues are of special interest to her, so I'm not surprised she is undecided if the issues have not been addressed. She's got the celebrity clout to possible get a response from the candidates on their stance, so more power to her.

What's not to get? She has a pet issue, and she wants to see how they stand. Makes sense. If you share her pet issue, you'd care about her opinion (she does know a decent amount about the topic, I'd have to admit).

That's fine for Angelina. I guess my problem is with the press (or rather the people that thought this was important enough to report). Why is this a news story?

I guess this really is rooted in my distaste for the concept of celebrity and why, simply because someone is pretty or in movies, that suddenly what they think is more important than what anyone else thinks.

You have a RR avatar, essentially just an actor, the second worst president of our time.

I don't get it, scaeagles.

Sacrilege, and I completely disagree, but I won't take the bait.

Let's just say our assessment of Reagan and his Presidency are completely different.
