Clooney: Obama Didn't Drop Presidential Bomb-a

Posted Nov 10th 2006 8:33PM by TMZ Staff

george clooneyGeorge Clooney is disputing an OK! magazine story that Senator Barack Obama told the actor he's a go for a Presidential run.

Stan Rosenfield, Clooney's publicist, quotes Clooney as saying, "I said I talked to the senator and begged him to run. And I hope he does. There's no news scoop from me. He'll make up his mind on his own schedule."

The OK! website quotes Clooney as saying, "I just spoke with Barack and he is going to run. I just hung up the phone with him."

Clooney says, it ain't so.

2. Clooney looks a bit old. He trys real hard on pretending he is the new Carey Grant. This is the first time I have seen him so 'relaxed'.

8. Barack Obama is colluding with the corrupt Nigerian government.

Nigerians steal BILLIONS from Americans in internet fraud schemes.

And their government is involved!

So what's Barack doing? HELPING them?

(Anyone out there- if a Nigerian contacts you with a sales proposition, RUN! It's all fraud.)

11. Isn't he dreamy? If I were a woman or gay I definitely wouldn't say no to this fine piece of masculinity!!!
But I'm not gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I think.

12. some rumor is going around that Clooney likes to give people herpes. Question is is MEN or Women that's he's supposedly giving it to? POPBITCH.

13. Kate - you mean to say that Americans actually fall for those phony Nigerian e-mails??!! Wow, we Canadians really are smarter - everyone up here knows they're a hoax... lmao!!

It's interesting what comments come out of a posting on TMZ with a political edge to it - certainly more entertaining than the juvenile name calling that shows up for Paris or Lindsay postings... same level of illiteracy though :-)

14. Depends what's his platform? Let's hear what he has to say. No one could be worst than Bush. Our President received a clear message, we want change. I'm not worried about him givng me anything, uh just say no.

15. George, keep your politics to yourself 'cause no one cares.
Do what you get paid for, ACT. You and Ben Affleck and any other celebrity can shut the xxxx up about politics, otherwise freaking run for office yourself.
