  1. What I want to know is how they can give to Obama more than the $2500 per person limit. Is it going to the DNC, or some super pac, and not directly to Obama? Or maybe the rules don't apply if you're a celebrity.

  2. I have the same question? I can't donate $2501 to the Paul campaign but Robert Downy can give $40,000? Does it go to the DNC? Is this legal because there are no other Democratic candidates?

  3. What I find hilarious is how hypocritical these Hollywood punks are. They were "so" antiwar when Bush was in office but now are all lovey-dovey with the murdering sociopath in the White House just because he's from the "other" Dumbo Party. LOL! What hypocritical maggots.

    This is why I have grown so weary of almost anything political. At least this blog is educational.

  4. This type of fundraising is not atypical. It's all PAC money.

    I just want everyone to remember, Obama BELIEVES in the 99%, and his campaign is fueled by small, grassroots contributions. Hobnobbing with insanely wealthy Hollywood types is just a mirage. Romney is the one that is out of touch. Obama is just a normal guy.

  5. Interesting, I thought Robert Downey Jr. had converted to a conservative after he rehabbed from his drug addiction.

  6. George Clooney et al only give lip service to the antiwar movement. Otherwise, why support someone who has yet to do anything about Guantanamo detainees, Bradley Manning, truly leaving Iraq, reversing course on a drone campaign in no less than four countries...

    Exactly! I don't get it. Clooney acts like he is so well read. Does he read at all? I mean, how can you be so out of touch? All of these fools. How can they be so stupid? I want to know.

    1. Some of the work that Mel Gibson produces is the exact opposite of the propaganda the state shovels at us every day. Hollywood is bought and paid for and has been since the beginning. Look at what they're doing to Gibson. People like Clooney fall in line and hob the knob to have success and wealth; not to mention avoiding TMZ document every stupid thing you do. This is part of the what goes on, I'm sure.
