----Because she's racist. I guess the hospitals in Kinshasa weren't up to her racist standards. She had to be spirited away to a country with white doctors.

Shameful Ashley. Just blatant racism on display.

It's weird how becoming liberal makes a person ugly. She is a perfect example.

I don't know many people who would willingly go to a Congo hospital.

Hell, I don't know many people who would willingly go to the Congo!

Well, if not White doctors, at the very least "White" medicine.

You know....where 2cc's + 2cc's of morphine = 4cc's of morphine.

What do you mean? Here's a beautiful hospital built by a basketball legend right there in the same city she was in.

Someone should point that out. I'm sure it's because of white colonialism though, the reason the Congo is 3rd world.

We've had your fellow libs claiming healthcare is better in Cuba than America. I guess the healthcare in the Congo is below standards for one of your fellow libs obviously. She went to SA where da white people at. Doesn't that deserve cancelation?

She was such a beautiful young woman and I thought she was a good actress and just loved her to death for so many years and then she just went completely ****ing crazy about 10 years ago. She has just turned into such a vile hateful liberal.

The Congo is one of the few places in the entire world to actually devolve back to tribalism. Read the book Blood River. Excellent read.

Some validity to the question but Dikembe is really a great guy who has done as much as I think he can for his people. I just give him a lot of credit for not being a charlatan/fraud like so many celebrities/athletes with their politics/mouth/money.

The book is a tribute to colonialism, actually. Africa is F'd up and will always be f'd up.

A different way of saying it is it is just another example of where the entertainment and media industry's bashing of the First World and talking about colonialism beating dead horse should be ignored because you don't want to lose its products and they do not either. Same principle so many come to the U.S. for medical treatment from all the socialist healthy care countries.

It's pretty amazing how truly ugly she has become. She was on my top 5 list at one point and now she's hideous looking. Not sure what happened. Did she get work done and it went awry? She's only 52 so it's not like she should have physically transformed the way she has naturally. But maybe so.

Story sounds pretty harrowing. Cites her privilege as the reason she was able to be saved. Well, duh. Would gladly do the same. Freedom, liberty, and western values allow you to have that kind of privilege so maybe she should recognize that instead of trying to harm it being such a leftist clown now.

Hate erodes the container is placed in, as the saying goes.

Going sjw has proved that over, and over, and over again. Look at Democratic women that went sjw---they start to degrade even from an initial good.

Don't laugh -- but Pelosi for example had it in her to have a more striking bearing. She is not default hag-like.

I think Obama and Oprah should move to the Congo and become King and Queen, and then recruit millions of their US followers to join them in their new kingdom

I agree with that. Unlike LeBron and his school, it appears Mutombo actually built this hospital with his own money-- where LeBron got other people to write the checks. On top of that, the hospital appears to be quite good by any standards. So Ashley Judd is racist for not going there-- and fleeing to a former apartheid nation.

It really isn't that easy.

From the story, it sounded like it was 2.5miles just to get out of the jungle. By foot. She likely got there with MAF (Mission Aviation Fellowship). I've flown them several times in their Cessna 208s. You are looking at landing strips that make Texas country dirt roads look paved.

There are no refueling places so whatever you fly has to be able to make a round-trip. There are no "airports" so where ever you go has to have people who can shew people and goats away.

Where would you bring a helicopter in from to that area? Entebee, Uganda might be the best hope.

I haven't been to the DRC, but I've been to Central Africa many times.

You know the risks when you go.

One of the hospitals we had to use was like 3 rooms. It had like 50 patients. Most were there for either HIV or Malaria.

Most Americans have no frame of reference for most of Africa. I encourage anyone who can, to go. But, until you've been there... nothing I've seen captures the experience.


Stories like these are why I have little pity for "the poor" in America. Poor people in places like Congo don't have cell phones and satellite television

Isn't "Break a leg" something you tell an actor/actress before they go on stage?
Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

I grew up in 3rd world countries, Camiri Bolivia in the 60s was no better or worse.

Mind you it wasn't a 4th world country, you know the ones; They aren't developing and they aren't going to.

That said, I'm pretty sure the Ugandan Military has a chopper or two that can easily be "paid for" even in the form of bakshish and a capable "guide".

Please, we all know that celebraties and the rich only ever go to the hospital closest to where they are, even if they go further they can get better care.
