Why Karate Kid II Is Superior To Karate Kid |

if it isn't a fashion line- someone spank me with a spiked paddle.

it almost seems like she's trying to disprove those rumors that she 'bitched' him out for riding his bike all time. le sigh...she DOES care what we think.

My point: Angie's not above bending the rules to get what she wants either.
03/31/09
So yeah, she bent the rules. And she will have an increasing difficult time adopting as a single mother with 6 kids and two divorces, so we can expect more rules to break if she adopts again.

I don't know if India has limitations on the number of divorces or other children in the home. Some countries do, but others simply look at whether you have adequate income/assets to support the number of children in the home.
I'm not saying that rules have never been bent for her, but I don't think they necessarily have to be. My impression from the scuttlebutt within the international adoption community is that her adoptions have been pretty much by-the-book.

Angelina annoys me during every interview she gives, to the point where I turn off the tv if she appears. But that's really not fair. Angelina can afford the kids she has, has the resources to provide for them, and isn't significantly adding to the surplus population that has already hit it's tipping point. Also, I think Angelina might be mentally sound, but at the very least I know she is not obviously mentally ill and she does not openly lie to Ann Curry. There is nothing similar about these women beyond a lot of kids and ski-jump noses.

@Bunson: Um, she admitted that she once considered putting a hit on HERSELF in a twisted form of attempted suicide; she also checked herself into a mental hospital and even her dad outed her as having mental problems. So how is she mentally sound again?

What I will say though is a comparison to Octomom is a low blow.

Are we gonna get ANOTHER diplomat plot? I mean really, Dick Wolf, come up with something new.
And, while you're at it, figure out a way to make the Benson-Stabler "are they gonna bone" tension compelling. Could you?

- you should be using your vast resources to change the micro/macro economics of the country instead
- unless you're Bono and then you should just pay your taxes
- pick a child that did not arrive in this world with any living relatives; maybe look under cabbage leaves?
- be sure that the child you are adopting is white enough/black enough/brown enough/disabled enough/disadvantaged enough/not from an economically depressed area which is being ravaged by disease/is at least ten years old
- you're only allowed one child - ever
- ensure all clothing worn by yourself during the process is neither too high or low end,too conservative or too slutty
- be a good Christian. Only.
- you can't have biological children after adopting

-make sure you carry your child a lot, but not too often, or you will be smothering the child.

The whole idea of competing over procreation/having children is pretty sad.

Also, I hate how no one mentions Brad Pitt in this. He's just a helpless victim of Jolie's Childcatcher-like obsession, I guess?

Don't buy into this bullshit, you're smarter than that.

There actually is a lot of paperwork and whatnot in international adoption and it takes time, at least when it's done through official channels. In the past, Angelina has actually gone through the process just like anyone else, from what I understand. I have my questions about Malawi forcing Madonna to play by the rules, but if she wants to bring that child to the US, she's had hoops to go through here.
