"I'm always open to children around the world. We're that kind of a family; Brad and I talk about that," Jolie said. "But that's not what we're focusing on at this time, by any means. We're not here for that."

Going on to explain, "We're here to see how we can help protect the children in-country and scale up the needs here."

Brad and Angie do so much and I love to hear about the kids! They are a great and very talented couple who do more than just sit back and enjoy their wealth! They give time and money!!

It seems there are people who comment on any and every item anywhere on the net...and use these comment areas to vent their burning hatred on whoever the item is about. Sad and sick.

Roadhog, regardless of your personal opinion of Angelina, she does give A LOT of her own money to children's charities as well as her time. She does walk the walk. Do you give 30% of your income to charity?

I imagine it must be incredibly difficult to genuinely love children, know you have money, & NOT want to adopt & save them all. So she & Brad do as much as possible in other ways. I admire them so much. True goodness is rare, sadly.

Tila blasted Angelina on twitter today, claiming that Angelina stole her idea adopting children. Tila is so delusional, she has to make everything about her all of the time. Tila does not care about children, Angelina genuinely does.

Stole HER idea? LOL. Tila-idiot has so many adopted children?

Tila says she will adopt a child from Haiti, I hope no one ever lets Tila Tequila adopt a child, she is crazy and her motives are not for the child, they are for PR, where Angelina's motive is for the best interest of a child, Tila is about Tila.

Tila simply needs to stick with that doll she's been dragging around.
