Actor G. Cloney on CNN !
I just seen a inteview on CNN ,with Mr. Cloney and I found him to seem like one of the good guys ,I use to say I did'nt like him he seemed full of hinmselve etc. I owe him a apoligy ,I perhaps am just jealous of his undeniable good looks .He talked about his new movie on McCarthyism and his problems with O'Riley ,(now thats a real A-hole)going after him on Cloneys work with the releif fund raising on the recent diasaster with the sunami victums and where the $ was going .He said they invited O'Riley to a forum on that subject and invited him to investigate ,Cloney said with a smile I wonder how he is doing with that ! Any enemy of O'Riley is a friend of mine , plus te fact that he is not full of himself and has the guts to come out and talk about what he believes in ,without worrying about how it may effect his career .Those of you that did not know ,I believe Rosemary (my Moms & Daughter's name)Cloney ,is his Aunt ! Well did anyone else catch the short interview , I caught the tail end of it cause I had CSPAN on ,however quickly changed it when ,they where about to show the chimp. I cant even stand watching bush talk , or should I say try to talk !
Take Care to All , NicRic

6. It is Janet Parshall, the right wing talk show spewer avoiding hearing
the truth from Randi Rhodes. They were on CSPAN yesterday and liveoaktx taped it and provided a screen capture of Janet's finest moment, forever captured in time, roflmao.

Here is a link to the video in case you are interested:

10. LOL! I knew it was some rwnutjob
refusing to hear the truth! Just wanted juicy details which you more than kindly provided, Spazito!

That's CLASSIC! Thank you..that's got to be kept in the DU hall of shame/infamy. I'd never seen Rhandi before but unfortunately I remember now what parshall looks like from an much earlier tv appearance I caught when I was still watching M$M(about a zillion years ago before Nov 6, 2002).

Thanks for the link, too..I'll watch it sometime a little later after I've had me exercise.

12. Thanks Again, Spazito!
I finally heard it..WOW! It was the "We're fighting terrorism over here..our subways are being attacked"(paraphrasing)..that finally got to janet pursedlips.

That Repealing of the "Davis Bateman Act" really got to me when I first heard about it..

GO RANDI!

21. No problem! The credit for it goes to liveoaktx, who did the screen
capture from CSPAN, it was too good not to use so I borrowed it too, lol.

2. I hate george Clooney
Edited on Sun Oct-09-05 10:07 AM by Armstead
Anyone who's that good looking and charming, plus being smart and apparently down-to-earth, self-effacing and politically correct and apprently an all-round good guy....grrrrrr

(Obviously I don't hate him. I admire him greatly, because he really does seem like a real mensch.)

14. Careful... that's my boyfriend you're talking about....
At least he would be my boyfriend if he would start returning my calls. Doesn't he realize he's in love with me yet?? :crazy:

I'm so looking forward to this movie... It just pisses me off that my real boyfriend has dismissed this movie as more liberal propaganda. :eyes:

7. His dad Nick used to be a host on AMC
I haven't watched it since they went from being "American Movie Classics" to the "American Movie Channel" showing all the same movies as all the other cable channels. But I'm glad they gave George a forum.

8. It's that Movies 101 show
and now another one with two guys hosting. I forget the name.

Yes, otherwise I hardly watch AMC. I'm a big TCM fan, though. And Sci Fi.

17. Candidate
He ran for the House of Representatives from Kentucky last year too. He's a Democrat although somewhat more conservative than his son. I understand he was also a newsanchor at one time.

9. Saw " Good Night and Good Luck" and it was brilliant!!!
Edited on Sun Oct-09-05 10:27 AM by goclark


Run to see it and you will be a George Clooney fan forever.
Until this movie I thought he was a cute average star with a house to die for in Italy.


No! He is Oscar worthy for this picture and a guy on our side.

11. I saw the trailer thanks
to DUer, Melodybe..and have been telling my friends about it.

I knew George Clooney was one of the outspoken actors who thinks bush is a detriment to society but he keeps getting better! This is a perfect vehicle to show the masses a bit of history that shouldn't be forgotten And to bring it forward to apply to this time in history.

24. Clooney is definitely one of the good guys
With his looks and Hollywood clout, he could easily take the easy road out and not give a damn about anybody but himself. But he is definitely a stand up guy.
