Jolie asks Laura Bush to nudge her husband towards education

[JI7]

<Angelina Jolie is urging former librarian Laura Bush to "nudge her husband" about the world's education crisis because it's time America helped struggling nations provide teaching for kids.

Jolie admits she's flattered by comparisons to First Lady Bush, who is also an advocate for global education, but she'd like President George W. Bush's wife to become more of a force in the movement.

Jolie urges all Americans to do what they can to help those that cannot afford an education, even though there are so many pressing matters that need addressing at home.

She says, "If we just fix home and the neighborhoods around us fall apart, what kind of a place are we gonna live in? It doesn't make any sense.

"Britain gives three times more than us right now and they're not richer than us, so I don't know what the great excuse is (for not giving money to educational charities)." >

3. Oh, you see, I completely misunderstood your subject line.

I interpreted it as "Jolie asks Laura Bush to nudge her husband towards getting an education"

Imagine my surprise.

Sadly, he appears to be (like his followers) uneducable.

6. Angelina Jolie is to First Lady Laura Bush

As a fine Chateau Lafite-Rothschild is to Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill.

8. May I respectfully dissent and ammend the comparison

A fine Chateau Lafitte-Rothschild is to Mad Dog...

I trust this meets with your opinion.

9. Mad Dog or Thunderbird?

Is that your final answer?

[Ecumenist]

11. You know, I'll go with thunderbird

I hadn't heard that one is a while and I know that it's even lower on the echelon than Maddog.
this is my final answer....

7. No please No

Every time BushCo turns attention to anything, programs are cut and the system is more worse off than ever.

10. If she wants some good done, she ought to

start advocating Bush's impeachment after the Dems take over in 2007. And Cheney's too. That is the ONLY way we'll start to fix this fucking mess.

13. Look pretty lady you just don't get it...

We have countries to bomb and invade, and corporate interests to protect. That costs money. Funding the worlds greatest military force is not cheap. Go back to making movies adopt another baby and don't disturb your beautiful mind with thoughts about the rest of the world.
