I just saw Natalie Portman, who went to our high school, on "Inside the Actor's Studio," on Bravo.
James Lipton asked her, in one of his Bernard Pivot questions,
James Lipton: "If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates?"
Natatie's answer below....
Natalie Portman: "Anything good that you've done in your life, you didn't do in order to get to Heaven. I think the only honest thing I can say about Heaven is that I don't know whether it exists or not, and I think it's a bad concept to have because then everything you... [if] you want to do good things in order to get into Heaven, then everything becomes a selfish act and I hate that, and I think it creates bad patterns in your mind, and I like doing things not as a means to get into Heaven but for the sake of doing it."
Republicans are not good like that. She was a great kid in High School, she's an incredible actress, she's a beautiful women and her answer showed the incredible class that she has radiated her entire life.
We are like that, unlike the Republicans and we have to let American know the difference. But, where we all differ is some think Kerry had the right way and others, like me, felt that Kerry needs to be put back in hid closet.. where he hides from confrontation and we have to be bold, angry as hell and ridicule the Republican politicians for the hateful and selfish bastards they are.
