LOL!!! I'm amazed at why anyone cares what the vapid Hollywood folks do. It just doesn't matter!

they're saving the kid from growing up a commie, just like that stink they had down in Florida, over Julio

Good luck. It's actually harder here than in many other countries. Not usually for CELEBRITIES, though. Although many celebs have done open adoption (a more popular option in the US lately, but not for everyone). Maybe they do not want to do an open adoption. There are plenty of people adopting in America too, you know. Even parents from Canada and Europe are adopting here. What's the difference? They are all innocent kids who need a home. That being said-I think this chick has MiaFarrow's disease (yes, that is an actual medical diagnosis, lol). What's wrong with raising the ones you already HAVE for a few years? I don't care how many nannies you have-an actual HERD of toddlers would be stressful-for the nannies, for the kids and for the parents (oh my, Brad-what HAVE you let yourself in for-she's hot, but is she THAT hot?).

You'd think they were young, healthy, and good looking enough to have more children of their own.

I remember reading an article not long ago ,where jolie was quoted as saying she "loves her adopted children more" than her natural child...because they had such a tough life to start with....yeah we all remember our first yr of life down the road, sounds to me like it would be better to be adopted by them, than be a less loved natural child....seems pretty weird to me, but of course they are stars and are always correct.....how did they say I am spose to vote next time??lol

Now there is no doubt in my mind that they are raising a replacement for UN.

They aren't doing this to be loving or charitable. If they were, they would let these kids grow up in their own culture and, support that culture. What they are doing is feeding their own twisted egos.

I completely agree with the views stated here about adopting children in this country..I will be interested to see if this is really an adoption or another purchase

You know they're cannibals don't you? Only starting up a "garden of flesh" for future cultivation. They belong to the ever growing community of flesh eating culinarists which comprise of .007% of the population. Madonna and Cruz are also members. They're have the 'Hollydoptoeatus' syndrome.

It'd be nice to see stories of regular people adopting. As for criticizing Pitt and Jolie, at least they're doing something unlike most of the critics and the majority of Hollywood ******s. How come the same people criticizing Pitt and Jolie are the ones supporting that baby killer Bush?

Any time an orphaned child is adopted, it's a good thing.
Good on A & B for expanding their family. However, it would be nice to see them adopt just one child from America. There are many born into poverty, drug abuse, etc. that could use a helping hand.

I have to say that I love Angie and Brad and I truly think they are wonderful, intelligent, generous people.It doesn't matter how many they have personally or adopt, a family is a family.I would have had 13 babies if I could have and would adopt if I had the means to. I love my children and my new step children. I do have to agree with others in I wish they would adopt at least a few from here. I just read today where a father abused and killed his 10 month old son. Beat him until his skull was fractored, burnt him with cigarettes and left human bite marks on his tiny body before it killed him. All because he couldn't handle the baby crying and the mother wasn't home yet. There are a lot of american babies that need people like the Jolie-Pitt's. I think it is ignorance to think that only babies in other countries are suffering and deserve a good home and parents. God Bless them All. I could cry, thinking of their pain.
