| Obama's Newest Advisor - George Clooney
 How George Clooney offers his 'good friend' Barack advice on Iraq | Mail Online Quote:
‘George has been giving him advice on things such as presentation, public speaking and body language and he also emails him constantly about policy, especially the Middle East.
‘George is pushing him to be more “balanced” on issues such as US relations with Israel.
'George is pro-Palestinian. And he is also urging Barack to withdraw unconditionally from Iraq if he wins.
‘It’s a very risky relationship. His hope of becoming America’s first black President depends heavily on winning over conservative voters and it would be suicidal for him to be perceived as a tool of a Hollywood Leftie, which is how they regard George.

god forbid he should actually listen to a friend who has some experience dealing with humanitarian crises. and have the right to completely disagree with him too. | |

Pretending that Clooney's experience is of any remote value is almost funny, especially after the idiot advocates immediate, unconditional departure from Iraq. | |
