I am not down on Jolie herself...SHE has gone to some of the more godforsaken countries...to try to help...
I was referring mainly to the "celebrity" part of it...and I dare say that she fits BOTH bills...
But, I know the rest of the celebrity elite attendees will have FAR fewer credentials...and they will probably shake their fingers at America under Bush as the unfeeling, uncaring country they think we are...
AND, Kerry and THeerrrrrrrrrazza will be applauding with them...
BTW..how in the heck could anyone take a call for a filibuster SERIOUS...if that person is in DAVOS hobnobbing...instead of in Washington doing the dirty work???
Kerry STILL doesn't get it, does he??
Bono is also deeply religious, something I wasn't aware of until recently. He also refuses to get into the middle of politics and said he once got drug into something that made it look like he was for Clinton over Bush and regrets that because he isn't for one side over the other side, rather for what he deeply believes in and that is helping people afflicted with AIDS.
He said when he met with the President (Bush) that he told him to put together something that would work without putting millions into the hands of more dictators and crooks and when he had a plan in place and people to help in addition to the USA that he would make certain that our government stepped up to the plate, too. Bono came away with respect for our esteemed leader.
