George Clooney had a drunken ‘hissy fit’ at Las Vegas casino, Steve Wynn says, after claims ...
National Post [Canada] / The Telegraph ^ | April 24, 2014 | Nick Allen

... In a statement Clooney said: “There were nine people at that table so you can ask them. Steve likes to go on rants He called the president an a—–e. That is a fact. I said the president was my longtime friend and then he said, ‘Your friend is an a—–e’. At that point I told Steve that HE was an a—e and I wasn’t going to sit at his table while he was being such a jackass. And I walked out. There were obviously quite a few more adjectives and adverbs used by both of us. It had nothing to do with politics and everything to do with character.”

Wynn remembered the argument differently, telling the Las Vegas Review-Journal that it began when a Hollywood executive at the table told a joke about Mikhail Gorbachev, which led to Clooney “throwing a hissy fit.”

He said Clooney then began talking about Obama’s health reforms, and the actor didn’t like it when he voiced opposition. “When he’s drinking, he considers himself a close personal buddy of the president,” he said. “The only person who got excited at the table was George, and he ran off to another bar.”

This is what we can expect from Pretty Boys when they age and no longer get kudos for their looks. Anything to get attention, even better a headline.

All publicity is good publicity.

But, he ws running his mouth because of his love for Obama and Wynns “@sshole” comment

That’s what makes it interesting to FReepers.

I understand, I just thought of it more as being funny.

It reminds me of high school.

Steve Wynn employs 9,000 people. Hired many more over the years. Built billions of dollars worth in hotels and casinos that employed thousands of construction people and spends millions buying supplies that keeps many more thousands of people employed. He became a billionaire from his efforts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Wynn

George Clooney employs no one except a publicist who maintains the fiction that he likes women. That nothing tawdry goes on at his home by Lake Como, Italy with guys.
He does spend money on women “beards”
He violated campaign laws by raising money at Lake Geneva, Switzerland for obama.

Too bad he didn't find an open elevator shaft by mistake.

Clowny couldn't let Wynn talk bad about the asshole he loves so much. He has grown very close to that asshole and has shared many intimate moments with it as well.

I would have enjoyed the story a lot more if it has said Wynn re-arranged Clooney’s face.

Cloo-less-ny: "He called the president an a—–e. That is a fact."

Yes, that Obama is an assh*le is a fact.
