Clooney Proudly Wears 'Liberal' Label

[Nathon Detroit]

NEW YORK (AP) - George Clooney is mad that liberal has become a dirty word.

"I'm going to keep saying 'liberal' as loud as I can and as often as I can," Clooney told Newsweek magazine in an interview about the film "Good Night, and Good Luck," which he co-wrote and directed.

The black-and-white film about journalist Edward R. Murrow will be in theaters nationwide on Oct. 14. Clooney plays the role of CBS producer Fred Friendly.

Good for him.

He might as well get used to the word 'commie' while he's at it.

Finally! A Hollywood Celebrity who isn't afraid to be known as a liberal! That takes guts.

 

[BillyBob]

I was thinking that, too. They usually prefer the word 'Progressive'.

Ed Asner actually openly declares himself a socialist, not that anybody doesn't already know it....

 

[Thirsty_Possum]

He ought to be ashamed of himself! Even I would not stoop so low!

It's too bad, Clooney has done some good work. 'Oh Brother' is on my Top Ten Favorites List.

Its refreshing that he isn't hiding like all the rest of them, but that just makes him a refreshingly honest moron.

LIBERAL! LIBERAL! LIBERAL! :crackup:

. . . but that just makes him a refreshingly honest moron.

It doesn't surprise me. After all, the word liberal is just another way of spelling....ill bear. I'm sure you get where I'm going with this...

What in the world is he doing, talking to the media? Does his agent know that he's speaking in public without a script? He's about as bright at Richard Gere. When either of them appear in news items I always think to myself, "Where is he coming from, and who moved the rock?"
