People Magazine’s November double issue named George Clooney “The Sexiest Man Alive” for the second time (1997 was the first). While I like looking at Clooney as much as the next girl, when he opens his mouth, all I can see is Michael Moore.
If Michael Moore is a dumbed-down Noam Chomsky (and he is), George Clooney is a dumbed-down Michael Moore. And that’s not sexy.
Call me old-fashioned, but one trait I’ve always looked for in a man is that he be more intelligent than I am. And more manly.
But when I see George Clooney, all I can think about is that, in the midst of a jihad declared against us, his last two movies were a film about Joe McCarthy, and “Syriana” — which is being used as a recruitment tool for suicide bombers, as “Path to 9/11” scribe Cyrus Nowrasteh reported being told in Morocco. Incidentally, Nowrasteh is just as easy on the eyes as Clooney. (Handsome + not kissing terrorist butt = HOT.)
Men are supposed to be protectors, not endangerers, and not only does Clooney help recruit terrorists, but he’s scared of the Second Amendment — which means he wouldn’t even be able to defend a woman from an armed intruder.
The Power Line blog described “Syriana” as “mind-numbingly dumb,” explaining it as taking the position that “suicide bombers are good, America is controlled by corrupt oilmen, and the United States is the force that stands in the way of Middle Eastern democracy.” Charles Krauthammer called the film “a pathological variety that burns with the certainty of its malign anti-Americanism.”
If America is the ultimate cowboy state, and you’re anti-American, that’s just not masculine. Cowboyishness aside, one thing real men know is that evil exists. But here’s Clooney on evil:
They tell us we’re going to war and no one’s saying ‘Bullshit’ loud enough. And the language! Listen to the language! ‘Evil.’ ‘Evil’? ‘Nexus of evil’? ‘Evil-doer’? That’s my favorite, ‘evil-doer’!
There may be room for debate on the current Iraq war, but someone who takes a dark view even of the first Gulf War that got Hussein out of Kuwait, as Clooney did with “Three Kings” in 1999, is just a pansy.
I know, I know: he’s a lover, not a fighter, right? If I had to choose, I’d take the latter. A fighter is usually also a lover, but a lover is often not a fighter. And if a man can’t form a fist when appropriate, then he shouldn’t be allowed to form an erection.
Add to the lover a desire for a more socialized America — a craving for a government that takes care of us cradle to grave — and what you have is an infant.
As a woman, I can’t be attracted to a man if I’ve got the bigger schvantz.
Thefighting men who are out there risking their lives on America’s side — and using guns to do it — would be surprised to know that a man who partially attributed John Kerry’s 2004 defeat to himself not riding in the candidate’s cross-country train is even the same gender. They barely see John Kerry as being the same gender.
Good for Clooney that he is “proud to be out of touch” with the country, as he said in his acceptance speech at the Oscars this year. Because any woman who appreciates a real man will stay out of touch with Clooney.

Clooney isn't really interested in protecting, anyway. He has publically said that he sees no reason to marry, as he has more fun single.
Protect? Why do that? Just get a replacement.

Clooney may look like a pre-maturely middle-aged man but psychologically he seems more like a man stuck in adolesence -- wanting to have conquest yet unable or unwilling to maintain a long-term COMMITMENT. Think Freud would call this immature fixation in the early genetile stage of development.
Please go easy on George today. His long-time pet pig, Max, just died at eighteen years old.
Who's George Cloony?
Shows how 'in touch' I am!
"As a woman, I can’t be attracted to a man if I’ve got the bigger schvantz."
Gotta love this girl!
I'd have to argue that one. He was great in Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?
Julie Gorin knows what a real man is.
I think he uses women as beards.
Amen, sister!
She nailed it! Give me strong and fighting man over the likes of George Clooney anyday!
!
That's my opinion too!
Recently I heard/read a quote **paraphrasing**....that he'd like to date a different girl each night....but he'd really like to walk on the beach with Leonardo DiCaprio and I think he said swap kisses or something.
Yeah, he might have been going for the outrageous....or he might have been pointing to the truth.
