"My feelings are 'can we just all get out?'," said the 46-year-old star, who lives mainly in London with British film director husband Guy Ritchie, who said she believes the US-led war will not help in the fight against terrorism.

Maybe she thinks if they're back in the US they'll have access to record stores and might buy her crappy CDs.

Hey Esther, it doesn't take a political scientist to understand the consequences of us leaving right now. After you study at Westpoint or become a political scientist, let us know your opinion. Until then...

That was my thought too. Was she pointing to her crotch when she said:
