Angelina Jolie Speaks Out Against Planned Koran Burning
People Magazine ^ | 9-8-10 | Mary Green

Posted on 09/08/2010 4:55:06 PM PDT by Justaham

Add Angelina Jolie to the growing list of voices opposing a plan by a Florida pastor to burn the Muslim holy book on September 11.

"I have hardly the words," she told reporters in Islamabad, Pakistan, to describe actions "that somebody would do that to somebody's religious book."

Jolie, who is in Pakistan to highlight the plight of flood victims in the country, was asked if she supported Pastor Terry Jones's planned Koran-burning. She answered, "Of course not. Of course not," and praised the response from some U.S. officials who condemned any such action.

You are correct it is not about the book burning small time church preacher story, it's not about Jolie in Pakistan being told about a small town preacher making world headlines and upsetting America--it is idiotic....AND its about the MSM media raging firestorm to show the Right as islamophobics and Obama Haters, racists-- that's why he cannot get anything done—the famous Party of NO. which is to blame for Everything wrong with this country.

“Jolie, who is in Pakistan to highlight the plight of flood victims in the country,....”

Jolie said the flood victims should all move to Hollywood,
“Yes, we have e floods there too but when we do we're flooded out of much better houses”.

When asked about the Koran burning she added,
“Bradsey and I thought about adopting a Koranean child when we do Asia next year. They seem like nice people, why would anyone want to burn Koraneans?”.

Angelina Jolie is one messed up skank.
A few examples;
the early episodes of cutting and pre-occupation with death, the passionate kisses that she gave her own blood brother at the Academy Awards, the bizarre tatoos, the vial of her then husband’s (Billie Bob Thornton) blood that she wore around her neck..
I’m not optimistic about the outcome of her children.

This is getting ridiculous, what does our President say? Has he said anything?
_______________

We don’t have a president.
We have a Marxist/Muslim usurper.

I think the president said that when the winds of public opinion turn ugly, he will stand with Mohamed.

That would be a great move. It would put the ball right in their court--"OK, prove this great tolerance you're supposed to have." The MSM who're trying to make hay of this are making me sick beyond any precedence. We have CENTURIES of examples of our tolerance for others, yet Chrissy and the rest are on the air moaning and bitching, being tools for Al Qaeda every night--and I do not say that lightly--when if they were honest about their supposed love for tolerance they'd be out there beating the drum for this, the most tolerant nation ever on the planet.

Look at how pissed I'm getting just writing about this. Sorry, just wanted to say yours is a terrific point. Now I'm off to read about something that won't get my blood pressure climbing.

Great succinct summation. The MSM are swarming around this one insignificant guy and trying to use his idiocy to paint the rest of us, just prior to the election. And we fall for this kind of thing every damned time.

I see you keep up with the Hollyweird tabloids. They make great front page read when in the checkout line. ;)

Doesn't matter this is not about Jolie. Jolie's life isn't for me to judge.

#108 post gets it..."we fall for this kind of thing every damned time".

Yes, I’m guilty of keeping up with E OnLine and TMZ.
LOL
People like AJ should clean up their own cages before critizing anything else.

However, they may have taken a misstep here about "Who might replace Rahm Emanuel?" Bad timing when they could have milked the preacher for longer or maybe it became embarrassing and not helpful to the White House after the Ground Zero stumbling and stammering by the Prez., plus they weren't helping their role in keeping us safe [same as leaks] opining on this issue. And guess the media ran out of celebrity/politicians to interview [or a shut down]-who are the very ones that "fall for this kind of thing every damned time".

Rumors had it Emanuel would go, and convenient that Mayor Daley just decided to retire [Sep 7, 2010]. Had to appear "natural". All convenient and may shift the focus as reporters regroup to tackle this turn of events with creative political spin. After all Obama just publicly blamed the Bush administration ,that helps take any perceived blame off Emanuel.

This makes it fun, not the rabid personal name calling in emotional disagreement on here over Jolie, Palin (responding the same) and do we burn the Koran or don't we burn the Quran.. Great succinct summation should mean Briefly expressed and I so S__K! at that, my goal is to stay short winded.

Hey I never will admit I read the drug smuggling story on Paris Hilton this morning after Emanuel\Daley on my google news home page. A cigarette pack where? ICK. She needs to date guys that fly private jets!! But I didn't read the story, so should not respond. ;)

The Chicago machine corruption just isn’t interesting enough. A one-day silliness is more fun to talk about than the decades of generational corruption in Chicago, which is the key to everything about this president and his band of corrupt milquetoasts.
