George Clooney Latest Obama Ally to Face Charges of Improper Text-Messaging
Posted by STV at 6:20 AM on August 13, 2008
We saw the disgrace that unfolded recently when Scarlett Johansson's putative e-mail relationship with Barack Obama was exposed for the sham it was, so it's with great care that we broach revelations that George Clooney is reportedly the Senator's new Hollywood BFF. As seen in the accompanying video, however, Obama's new Special Envoy for Text-Message Policy (West Coast) drew attacks Monday from the reactionaries at the Fox News institution Red Eye, which touched on Clooney's underqualifications as both a leading man and a filmmaker: "Do you want to take advice from the man who looked at the Batman and Robin script and said, 'Let's do this'?" Indeed, while we admit bristling at last week's GOP smear linking Obama to Paris Hilton, even we must acknowledge that the "nipple suit" is a far-too-sizable albatross for anyone to contend with come November.

Should Obama achieve the Oval Office (And please Jesus, make this happen), George Clooney will soonafter be nominated as the United States Ambassador to Poontang. You heard it here first.

God forbid Obama take advice from the guy who makes every woman I know quiver in a dirty place, and most guys would cut their own arm off, hurl themselves onto hot asphalt to cauterize the wound, beat themselves over the head with their severed limb, then hurl themselves off the Burj Dubai's spire to be, if only for one day. But enough about David Bowie...

At least we know they weren't having an affair. At least I think we know that.

Maybe Clooney just wants Obama to fill in for Bernie Mac in Ocean's 18?

Would you take advice from the guy who looked at the alleged plan for the Iraq war and said, "Let's do this?"

I feel the same way about anyone who gets an invite from "Red Eye" and says "Let's do this"

For the record, I have NO ISSUE WHATSOEVER with the nipple suit. Should he be inclined to wear it over one day...

Wait, they have a problem with Clooney's batsuit, but they have no problem with the governor of California saying "ICE to meet you!"?

@denominator: The Arnold was making what those in the humor industry call a "pun." You see, he thought Poison Ivy was from the Ivory Coast, and he was simply warning her that Immigrations and Customs Enforcement were on their way to deport her sorry behind.
