George Clooney is convinced he ruined John Kerry's chances in the race for US president in 2004 - by snubbing an invitation and hurting his feelings.

The Ocean's Twelve actor was one of several screen stars invited to ride on Kerry's election train, but it all went downhill for the Democrat when Clooney stayed away.

He recalls: "Kerry asked me to ride on his train - he had a train going cross-country after he was nominated and some actors went on board. I called him and explained that I couldn't do it. I'd hurt him. I'd actually caused him harm at the polls."

This is the funniest thing I've heard in a long time!

[hispanarepublicana]

Yeah, George....it's ALL about you.....

[Wheee The People]

LOL

[TN4Liberty]

The term "self-important" comes to mind.

[11Bush]

How viable is a candidate if they 'need' this assclown to win?

[LA Conservative]

Another piece of evidence that liberals are narcissistic.

[Loud Mime]

What a friggin' egomaniac! Does he really think that he's that important?

[notpoliticallycorewrecked]

As if Clooney had that much influence. LOL

The only thing bigger than BS's mouth is Geroge Clooney's ego.

[Jet Jaguar]

I would say the swift boat Vets did it.

My former neighbor changed her tune after they came on scene.

[Mojave]

Thanks George.

[SeaBiscuit]

Libs are so full of themselves and so full of sh**.

[HairOfTheDog]

"I broke the dam"

[asp1]

This is a joke, right?

[TomGuy]

Vanity, thy name is George Clueless Clooney

[George, you aren't that influential. Sorry, guy. You just aren't that significant.]

[grobdriver]

What arrogance!

[Tx Angel]

I'm not so sure his absense hurt Kerry, but everytime he flaps his lips, it certainly helps us.

[Lancey Howard]

George C-looney, the kingmaker, changed history.

[FierceDraka]

Jeez - the sheer hubris of this guy never fails to astound.

[SeaBiscuit]

George Clooney

[Trajan88]

Thank you George... now off with you to Lake Como to hide from the Madding Crowds.

[Kuksool]

Clooney did ruin sKerry's chances as well as his father's Congressional race. Nick Clooney ran for Congress in the KY-04. The Elder Clooney portrayed himself as pro-life, pro-gun RAT. George Clooney's outspoken liberalism sunk his father at the polls in 2004.

[voletti]

And this is NOT even scrappleface!

[CyberAnt]

I always thought Clooney was an egotistical a$$ - but now I'm sure of it .. LOL! I love it when these people reveal who they really are.

[armymarinemom]

Maybe insanity doesn't run in the Clooney family but it appears to gallop.

[FierceDraka]

"I broke the dam"

"No, it was - CRAB PEOPLE."

[Kimmers]

Note to self George....you really are not that important.

[rwfromkansas]

what an arrogant psycho.

[Luke Skyfreeper]

Yeah... you know, just the other day I was saying to myself, "If ONLY Kerry had gotten strong, consistent support from George Clooney... he just might've been able to pull it out of the bag..."

[Troublemaker]

[tiki]

Oh the ego!

[Radix]

Clooney is retarded.

He recalls: "Kerry asked me to ride on his train - he had a train going cross-country after he was nominated and some actors went on board. I called him and explained that I couldn't do it. I'd hurt him. I'd actually caused him harm at the polls."

So I guess we can call off the election investigation in OHIO!

The guy has delusions of relevance. IIRC: He couldn't even get his dad elected.

Hey, George, lighten up: Kerry lost because he's an a$shole.

[Hoodat]

Did I hear this right? Kerry lost the election because he got his feelings hurt?

ROFLMAO!!!

[Ciexyz]

aaarrgh

[Sisku Hanne]

No, I broke the dam!

Sorry to break it to you George, but you just don't matter that much.

[Txsleuth]

I haven't read any of the other posts yet...so if this has been said...sorry.

George, get over yourself!!!!

[CholeraJoe]

Yeah, right.

[DAC22]

Sure George, whatever. I suspect it had more to do with him knowing if he showed up on sKerry's train, his Dad the conservative Democrat from KY(?), had no chance in his State Assy run. Of course he lost anyway.

[Izzy Dunne]

The term "self-important" comes to mind.

The term "narcissistic self-absorbed ***wipe" comes to mind.

[Ma3lst0rm]

Don't you love liberal egos? Yeah if only George had rode that train with Kerry I just might have voted for him. lol

[Dante3]

Does Clooney every live in a fantasy world.

[RVN Airplane Driver]

No dumba$$...NOT ABOUT YOU...it was about the Swifties and lots of folks like me....that defeated that lying POS skerry... So now go back to sleep and feel comfortable that you didn't cause your buddy to lose the election.

[Sisku Hanne]

LOL! One of the funniest episodes ever!

[SeaBiscuit]

LMAO

[Arpege92]

Didn't Clooney's father lose the election?

[dighton]

Forget Clooney.

With Rula Lenska nowhere in sight, Kerry was doomed.
