Syriana star George Clooney is the latest Hollywood liberal to trash Hillary Rodham Clinton. The liberal actor let the 2008 Democratic presidential frontrunner have it while citing his own brilliance and expertise in foreign affairs.
George Clooney: Middle East Expert
MSNBC Scoop queen Jeannette Walls delivers:
George Clooney — an outspoken critic of the Bush administration — also has some harsh words for Hillary Clinton.
The “Syriana” star says he is “frustrated and disappointed” that Clinton and many other Democrats were “scared” to oppose the war on Iraq, and “now they are paying the price.”
“I hate it when smart men and women are saying, ‘Well, if I knew then what I know now,’ ” Clooney told the Sunday Times of London.
“The fact is: I knew it then and I don’t have national security clearance…"
Heh. George Clooney, star of a CIA movie, now a CIA expert.
And they wonder why Hollywood stars are mocked and lampooned when they try to speak out and be the 'smartest guy in the room' on all issues political.
Walls notes that Clooney is ready to give the Hollywood kiss of death to poor Barak Obama.
“Of course (Obama) doesn’t want to right now; he just wants to be senator for Illinois,” Clooney told the paper. “But he could attract the two groups who rarely show up to vote — young people and blacks. He’s the guy to get behind.”
Well, he may have been. But now that Hollywood appears to have adopted him as their favorite candidate - not anymore.

"Hillary Clinton Ripped by George Clooney"
George Clooney will soon be ripped by Hillary.
Oh the drama! Oh the humanity!
Now that we've heard from Hollywood's greatest intellect, what more is there to say?
LOL
Logic 101: If Hollywood's endorsement is the kiss of death (politically) then George is actually helping Hillary.
Just shut up and act, George.
Hmmmmmmmmmm---if he is so smart...and knew all about everything before we went into Iraq...then why didn't he warn us about 9/11???
Also...Barack Obama is about as left as they come...and he really DOES fit with that crowd....but, isn't it nice how the left can "USE" race....but they constantly accuse the right of abUSING race.
I'd love to see Clooney do long division.
Earth to George Clooney....Hillary is going to avoid the Hollywood left like the plague. Your criticism of her is EXACTLY what she wants.
Oh yeah... they'll bitch & moan how she's too conserrrrrvative... but make no mistake, she's their ticket.
Good point..heheheh! Also...how is Barak Obama going to "attract young people and blacks who don't vote"? Clooney is a total lunatic. Blacks vote bigtime. And why would Obama suddenly force young folks to vote? LOL
ya that right - he rubbed his clooney ball and stared into it and sure as sh-t he knew shazam zingo he knew.
You got to love the fact that old looney Clooney goofy George is on their side
All part of the plan-get as many of the fringe wackos to bash Cinton and eventually she is perceived as "centrist" or moderate..
They all have their money on Obama somewhere down the road for the presidency. Good. Should be an easy win for even a RINO who runs against this marxist.
Maybe he's really a terror expert like Jeff "Skunk" Baxter from the Doobie Brothers...........< / sarcasm>
