George Clooney Meets With Obama to Put Focus on Sudan Partition Vote

Hey George, If Sudan is so important...use your own money..we're broke. We got other problems ...like the economy and jobs And by the way hows that Haiti thing working out...not much progress there and those people are a lot closer. Hollywood and Washington...they go hand in hand to avoid reality here.

We do not need to interfer in thier business. The president listens to clooney, while members of the government cannot get his ear. When the majority of the people were against what he was doing he did not listen. There seems to be something wrong when one voice is heard, but the majority is ignored.

Euro-west: Stay out of Africa. It's in the sorry shape now because of the Euro-western crimes against humanity that have taken place over the past 5 centuries. The only way for Africa to heal is for Africans to work it out for themselves.

You have got to be kidding me. Of all the things that are going on in THIS country we have George Clooney getting the president's ear. Unbelievable!!!

Clooney has more pulls than Gov. of Arizona!!!

unbelievable!! Obama did not have time to meet with either AZ gov Brewer nor TX gov Perry over national security issue border control but has time to meet with a celebrity !!! Pretty obvious how he feels about the border state issues.

While I agree in parts to the conversations here I have 2 points I would like to make. #1 With all the hoopla by the "stars" to raise money for Haiti, (and they successfully did raise of lot of money from all American people) why are 90% of the people in Haiti still living in tents and their infrastructure is still, well it isn't, period. #2. I totally agree with people when they make the comment that there are families here in the US that could use the help. "To sit by and do nothing is a sin and immoral" Good comment "hi". Unfortunately you don't seem to feel about American families as you do Somolian people.

The most interesting part of Clooney's politics is that he is Republican. Of course the elft does not like to talk about that part of the story.

If President Obama wants his party to triumpth in the midterm elections then all he has to promise is that if you elect more democrats than republicans we will add the PUBLIC OPTION to the health bill.

Actor George Clooney is a person to be admired. I don't quite get the 'gap' between being an actor and being a productive member of society. As they say in the 'background' investigation' business; George Glooney's 'bone fides' are solid. What criteria are you looking for in a legitimate advocate for the lessor people of that region of the world. Clooney has shown himself to be smarter, more selfless, highly motivated and considerably more knowledgeable as to what might be most helpful in bringing down the death rate of 5 to 9 year old children in the Sudan. For those of you who simply smirk and criticize, and make fun of the brave men and women around the world who are trying to make a difference - it's time for the rest of us to take of the 'kidd gloves' and do away with the gentlemanly politeness. If you don't want to help get out of the freaking way. If you have nothing but a negative smart mouth to offer, keep your trap shut. If you'd rather spend your money watching a hockey game than spending the same amount saving a babies life, then get away from me. I don't want to have to look at you and your sick excuse for a human being.
