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."

Who is George Clooney?

[R. Scott]

Right. I didn’t vote for Hanoi John, that backstabbing, self-aggrandizing, lying, despicable POS just because an actor didn’t ride his train.

WOW! I’ve read that some of the Hollywood types have massive egos, but this guy is way out there.

Clooney was the in Return of the Killer Tomatoes

His first film role – and he’s been sliding downhill since.

Celebrity moron of the week ping!!!!! This is too funny.

Cooney also feels he had Collins shot in Beal na Blath....

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

He's stoned on liberism, that's the worst of all.

-Jennifer Aniston gets bad haircut (Last week)

I've always thought he had a "hairdresser" look about him ...

[hershey]

Delusional and drooling.

George Clooney is my wife's favorite actor. I warned her of his liberal tendencies, but she still melts whenever she sees his face. Do you think I ought to tell her about this thread?

According to Imus, Kerry's campaign hit the skids when he refused to stop the train while crossing the Imus Ranch for kids with cancer (and old farts with vacation homes).

Ya just have to love the importance these liberal jackasses put on themselves.

Narcissistic nattering nabob.

That's what he gets for going to visit Kim instead.

This is the funniest thing I've heard in a long time!

George Clooney is actually a robot created by Karl Rove Enterprises.

Caught Clooney on Oprah, few weeks back. When asked the five people he would love to meet and have dinner with... at the top of his list were Bill and Hill Clinton.

This made me want to wretch. It is hard to remember when this baffoon opens his mouth that he is a celebrity in N. Kentucky and his Aunt Rosemary is remembered fondly.

Then again... how many celebrities are known for being honest and conservative at the same time? He should send Kerry a dozen roses in condolence.

..yeah it was all clooney's fault..BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

I wouldn't risk it. ;') I don't think he's particularly good looking, but I'm a notoriously poor judge of male beauty. :'D
