Monica Showalter "It's not easy being George Clooney these days.
"The realization has finally hit him that Obama, his best friend forever, used him for a patsy in the recent election.
"First, he had him hold a fundraiser for Joe Biden, where he could clearly see Joe's senility, and then he had Clooney write the editorial for the New York Times calling on Democrats to get that guy out of there. Now that the electoral disaster has happened for the Democrats as a result, Obama has left Clooney holding the bag.
"Nick Arama at Red State writes:
According to a new report from Radar Online, Clooney "is furious with Obama for disappearing after the election disaster and leaving him holding the bag for pushing the plan with his Hollywood pals," a showbiz insider said.
A "political mole" told Radar it was Barack Obama who asked Clooney to call for Biden to step aside, "fearing fallout if he did it himself."
"Obama and Clooney have been tight for years, and George became Barack's surrogate in leading the charge for Joe to step away", explained the source. "Barack knew he would look like a traitor if he publicly called for Joe to be cut loose. And now, he's trying to walk away from it all.
"George feels duped and vows he's not going to be anyone's political water boy anymore."
"Doesn't matter, George. You're still the waterboy. Obama is the hands-off, grand old man of the Democrat party who got you to be the public dupe; his hands are clean, can't trace a thing to him. But you, Clooney? You'll always do as you're told because that's what you did for Obama. You're Obama's designated dupe now, and with the disaster for Democrats as a result, too bad about your reputation." . . .
