Rush Limbaugh Praises Angelina Jolie

Joyce @ 02/29/2008 at 11:03 pm
Good for her, while I don’t agree with her ideas, I respect them.
+++++++++++++++++++++++

So you do not agree helping innocent Iraq refugees who were victims of an unjustified war?

___________________________________________
I don’t agree that the troops should stay. Hillary and Obama will help the humanitarian crisis but will put out the troop very quicky.

What you are saying is basically
You can invade other country and cause mess-up and can leave there as everything got out of your hand.
Where is your taking responsibility of Bush’s mistake ?

I knew many Republican who had supported Bush’s attack are now saying same thing as you without feeling their responsibility.
Without fixing Iraq US should not lave.

guli @ 02/29/2008 at 11:16 pm ITA with that wonderful article in WP by Angie.
See, some of you are missing the point that what she wrote was completely non-political!!!!
She wasn’t talking about why or if we should have gone to war in Iraq….She was talking about the fact that there are millions of refugees in Iraq and neighboring countries and many of them are kids and they need help! We owe it to these innocent people to …well as Brad would say it “Make It Right”…..
Mondo Bongo and AG check your mail

I agree with you Guli, some seem to be missing the point - her article is not political - it is totally about what we as human beings need to do to help fix what we “broke”. To use your reference “We need to Make it Right !

Even Clinton and Obama acknowledge that some troops will stay in Iraq for humanitarian missions for a short time. The US invaded this country because the Bush neocoms who wanted a war found one. The US has a moral obligation to help right a wrong or else the US and the World will pay for it in violence for many years to come. The US invasion took a country that had the most highly educated group of women in the Mideast and has now induced mass chaos and disorder. The US must do what it can to undo the damage done. That is Angelina’s nonpolitical message (neither democratic or republican), she raised a moral issue that people need to listen to and the US government needs to respond to. If not look no further than the Israel-Palestine conflict for our violent future to be.

That’s what I’m saying Obama and Hillary think is more than enough that the troops stay a short time and then they will bring them back, while angelina thinks they should stay till the refugees are able to have a “normal” life.

You really think that in a short time 4 million refugees will have a “normal” life? Umm, no. This will take mid term, at least 5 years.

Neither Obama and Hillary are taking that chance, they are thinking to give billions and form an international force to help with the process WITH NO NEED OF AMERICANS TROOPS.

Angie is staying neutral because she is practical, she needs Republican and Democrat votes when she is backing up bills with regard to her humanitarian works passed in the house.

I think thats why Brad is now not that vocal as a democrat, they just want to stay neutral, what stays precedent is how they can help those that need help through their own humanitarian and charity causes. and they need support from everyone.

envious ritzy is full force here.
she freshly started with new names using Democrat’s candidates.

Humanitarian Initiative
Obama believes that America has a moral and security responsibility to confront Iraq’s humanitarian crisis — two million Iraqis are refugees; two million more are displaced inside their own country. Obama will form an international working group to address this crisis. He will provide at least $2 billion to expand services to Iraqi refugees in neighboring countries, and ensure that Iraqis inside their own country can find a safe-haven.

As our forces redeploy out of Iraq, Hillary would also organize a multi-billion dollar international effort — funded by a wide range of donor states — under the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees to address the needs of Iraqi refugees. And as we replace military force with diplomacy and global leadership, Hillary will not lose sight of our very real strategic interests in the region. She would devote the resources we need to fight terrorism and will order specialized units to engage in narrow and targeted operations against al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations in the region.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Well, after reading this, angelina doesn’t agree with neither of the democratic candidates. Both are on the same page that helping the refugees will be handle by a international force, not american soldiers (like angelina wants)

Of course she wrote it. that guy i s an assclown!

and it sort of makes me appreciate this Brad Pitt guy a little more. He’s gone after substance here, is all I’m saying. This really is a good piece.”

This is the only intelligent thing that has EVER come out of Limbaugh’s mouth

Cowardice at its highest. So, I guess you want to provide the money but not the lives?

Which country on earth would contribute troops to an international force who will risk their lives at the behest of the main offender and war aggressor who stays cowardly stays home.

————————
Listen, I’m a democrat and you’re not. We can arguee for years and we won’t make any progress.

If you don’t like what Obama and Hillary plan to do, then vote for someone else.

I’m just expressing my opinion.

Clint is voting for Mccain, now Angie too. I’m happy

I really hate Rush Limbaugh…but as a Democrat myself, I am in agreement with Angie op-ed. To me, what Angie is talking about is the political realities of the war. We can’t just pull out, even Democrats understand this. The pulling out theory makes for great political speeches and all, but the reality is very much different. Make no mistake, Clinton and Obama are aware of this and would agree with Angie. I believe what the Democrats want is a timetable of when we are going to pull out but not 100 years like McCain states. After all this is not a supposed to be “an occupation.” We had no business going there in the first place but since we are there we have to fix the problems we caused. That is what she is saying period. To me, there is no political alliance in her article just the realities of this terrible war.

ITA!

alex @ 02/29/2008 at 11:54 pm #105 pissed off

Although you are not referring to me; but i want to respond to you anyway, because the people of here NEVER said that being a Republican is a BAD thing; because it’s NOT!! But what we are complaining is that the Trolls are affirming that Angelina is a Republican when we DON’T if that is true or not!! This trolls are saying that Angelina is Republican just to start SH*T, but NO!! being a Republican or a Democrat is not a bad thing!!

Yes, some people are so naive.
They cannot read between lines.
Ritzy has her trick.
She is very active now.

28 Sunny @ 02/29/2008 at 10:39 pm Strange, strange Iraq war supporting bedfellows….

Rush is a drug abusing blowhard.. Angelina is a … movie actress. Both have fallen for the Bush war party line.

Yes, by all means… let’s stay in Iraq and get thousands more of our fine young soldiers killed… and thousands more Iraqi civilians. That’s a humanitarian stance. NOT
——-
Sunny, read her article, posted by ha ha ha (#16).
Nowhere in AJ’s article does she say anything about continuing the war. Her business is refugees and it’s her view that the troops can/should assist the Iraqi government and the UNHCR in helping the Iraqi refugees come back and resettle in their country.

OT From my previous posts on the last thread)

Star Seeking
Rep. Thelma Drake, R-Va., says members of the House Armed Services Committee could learn something about Iraq from actress and humanitarian Angelina Jolie.

In a letter to committee chairman Rep. Ike Skelton, D-Mo., Drake asked that Jolie, a U.N. goodwill ambassador, be invited to testify on the status of millions of refugees in Iraq and its neighboring countries.

“I believe the membership of our committee would gain crucial insight into another important aspect of the conflict from Ms. Jolie’s testimony,” Drake wrote, saying the committee could benefit from “differing perspectives on Iraq.”
