Clooney: I ruined Kerry's presidential race
Ireland Online ^ | 1/14/06 | Ireland Online

George Clooney is convinced he ruined John Kerry's chances in the race for US president in 2004 - by snubbing an invitation and hurting his feelings.

The Ocean's Twelve actor was one of several screen stars invited to ride on Kerry's election train, but it all went downhill for the Democrat when Clooney stayed away.

He recalls: "Kerry asked me to ride on his train - he had a train going cross-country after he was nominated and some actors went on board. I called him and explained that I couldn't do it. I'd hurt him. I'd actually caused him harm at the polls."

Just like an immoral smug a$$hole like George Little or No Talent Goony to make such an inane remark.

Hollywood's liberal opinions carry little weight except with those whose gray matter has been replaced by AIR.

Airheads all.

Well, we all know what a sensitive guy John Kerry is... that's why he turned on his fellow servicepeople and called all of them homicidal Neo-Nazi imperialist baby-killers.

I'd hurt him. I'd actually caused him harm at the polls.

YES, George, you did. Suicide looks like the only way out of your pain.
