oh, go blow it out your...

Seriously dude, you need to chill:

...agent-turned-documentary maker Pat Dollard has attacked George Clooney's outspoken anti-war stance. Dollard - the former agent ...Steven Soderbergh - is currently making a pro-war documentary about Marines fighting in Iraq. He was furious when Clooney urged more Democrats to speak out against the war and 'congratulated' himself for doing so. He tells PageSix.com, "I read something on the Internet in which someone was patting himself on the back for having the courage to oppose the war. They actually equate bravery with speaking out against the president because (losing fans) might cost them one less servant at their Italian villa ... It put me into a black rage and made me sick to my stomach." Dollard, a Republican, also attacked the way supporters of the party in the entertainment industry have been ostracized, adding, "Being a Republican in Hollywood today is not much different than being a communist in Hollywood in the 1950s. I'm not trying to overstate the case, but the reality is there is a blacklist in Hollywood. It's very McCarthy-like. It just shows the hypocrisy of the left." [imdb]

To compare his 'plight' with McCarthyism is not only insulting, it's stupidity in its basest form. What he claims to be going through is nothing in comparison to what entertainers in the 1950s had to endure. Notice, he never touched upon the fact that a republican actress, Melissa Gilbert, was the president of the SGA for years... Course not. If he's so miserable he should start a self-pity club with Chuck Norris, Wayne Newton and Bo Derek. They can self-flagellate themselves while they count their money and laugh all the way to the bank. Cry me a river, fucko.
