The “Fast Track” To A Large Litter

Angelina Jolie adopting yet another child really isn’t exciting to me. I’m slightly annoyed by Angelina and Brad, simply for the awful, holier than thou, hushed tones they speak in. Other than that, I think they are good people. I’m over the whole, “celebrities shouldn’t care about world issues� thing. Let them do what they want. Let them adopt 300 children from Vietnam. Besides, this happens once a month. When something happens all the time, is it really news?
Yet, in the interest of the foaming at the mouth public, here is the latest with Angelina’s new child.
Jolie was seen on Saturday night arriving at her hotel in Ho Chi Mihn City. She has been there since Wednesday night to adopt a three year old boy from an orphanage. The U.S. based agency, which handled the adoption, said she began the process last summer in Vietnam. A rep for the agency claims she received no preferential treatment, and was not “fast-tracked� to get her hands on the little tike.
This is all damage control based on a statement by Vietnam’s senior adoption official Vu Doc Long who said “In this case, things can move faster because she’s a celebrity and she has already found a child.�
Smooth move Ex Lax. Someone get Vu Doc Long a P.R. person before he goes and sticks his foot in his mouth again.
