The father of embattled lobbyist Jack Abramoff has lashed out against George Clooney for what he calls a "glib and ridiculous attack” on his son during the Golden Globe awards presentation.

Clooney, during his acceptance speech for the best supporting actor award on Monday, thanked Jack Abramoff "just because” and made a comment about the lobbyist’s name.

"Who would name their kid Jack with the last words ‘off’ at the end of your last name? No wonder that guy is screwed up,” Clooney told the audience.

Abramoff’s furious father Frank, in an open letter sent to the Desert Sun newspaper in Palm Springs, Calif., said his son is named after Frank’s beloved father, and scolded Clooney for his "lapse in lucidity.”

"I will never see a Clooney movie, watch a Clooney show, or support him in any other way. The man is scum."

Actors are stupid people. Why would you want to antagonize half your customer base with ignorant Moonbat political commentary?

As I recall, Clooney is the liberal celebrity intellect.

Found it: From WorldNetDaily --

In receiving a special filmmaking achievement award from the National Board of Reviews, actor George Clooney joked that "Charlton Heston announced again today that he is suffering from Alzheimer's."

Clooney still had a chance to apologize for the bad humor day. When questioned about the remark by New York Newsday, Clooney sputtered: "I don't care. Charlton Heston is the head of the National Rifle Association. He deserves whatever anyone says about him."

Return of Belly Girl?

[Flavius Josephus]

Mmmmm, I think this is a different belly girl, I've been itching to post it and I succumbed. She makes me feel all funny inside.

Yup....

George definitely was mis-named --- *he* should have been "Jack Clooney".

[chadwimc]

I seldom agree with anything Clooney has to say,but...
I think the same thing every time I hear Abramoff's name. What a time he must have had in junior high school...

[RightResponse]

He should have played "Shallow Hal"

[Ole Okie]

They say I was a bad Batman, that it was my fault, that I buried the franchise. But the truth is, it was a big project. I was pretty intimidated in that world. I did the best I could in the situation I was given.
George Clooney

Well, given the quality of the quotes made by CLooney, it's obvious that he isn't a candidate for Joker.

Cat Woman? Nah.

But he'll be a hell of a Penguin.

Don't know why anybody needs a Penguin, but if the plot calls for it, CLooney is the obvious choice.

A hallmark of the Left is making fun of peoples names. Bush, Dick etc.

Clooney can rot in hell. I'll never forgive him for his insentive comments about Charleton Heston.

Thanks for reminding me! What a creep.
