Angelina Jolie exemplifies passion in what she's doing and should be respected for it; there are a lot of people at her level that get complacent and stay mum about the injustices of the world. Now, to my post. Satire introduces the concept of circumspection to humor. Take this excerpt from Wikipedia's entry of the term 'satire': <em>"...[satire] is an artistic form, chiefly literary and dramatic, in which human or individual vices, follies, abuses, or shortcomings are held up to censure by means of ridicule, derision, burlesque, irony, or other methods, sometimes with an intent to bring about improvement."</em> So yes, Joile's very passionate, but her status in the public eye as it were makes her an optimal target for satirical criticism on many fronts. Guess you just got a dose of one of my passions: satire! Thanks for the comment Brittney and I hope to hear from you on another post!

Jolie has always demonstrated hers with no holds barred... now it just happens to be a passion for refugees. Nothing boring about that. …seriously though, what’s hotter than passion?
