Give it a rest! If YOU could afford to take your children with you while you worked on the road, you would too! I’m just glad they are doing the story. You would be surprised how many have forgotten or don’t remember her husband died trying to keep us as Americans in the loop!

I’m a fan of Jolie and think that her celebrity status should not take away from her good works – she’s not just another rich b*tch out there getting attention for herself. I really believe that her intention is to help make this world a better place, and if she’s out there helping children around the world and bringing media attention (and money) to suffering nations – good for her! I was surprised at the anger around her portraying Mariane Pearl, apparently many black activist groups are upset that she’s playing a bi-racial woman. The message of the movie and the sacrifice of the Pearl family falls to the wayside when people make it about something completely unrelated – like race.
