Dad says Clooney made Abramoff’s child cry
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - The father of disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff says George Clooney’s off-color joke about his son’s name during the Golden Globe Awards made the lobbyist’s 12-year-old daughter cry.

In a letter to Clooney posted Friday on the Web site of The Desert Sun newspaper in Palm Springs, Frank Abramoff said he was astonished by the actor’s “glib and ridiculous attack” during Monday’s televised program.


And this whining on the heels of the right-wing spin machine's coverage of Scalito's wife bawling on C-SPAN after people started *gasp* asking him questions! And then they have the nerve, the utter gall, to cover the whole thing asking what our problem is and why we're "hurting this poor woman's feelings". (But remember, anyone who complains about the fact that the right does bad things is a "whiner" and should shut up.)

Personally, I think Jack 'off's daughter should be crying, but not because that mean ol' George Clooney said something bad about her dad. She should be crying because her dad is a lying thief who exploited Native Americans. She should be crying because he tried to buy and sell Washington. She should be crying because Jack's going to a Federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison for his crimes, and yes, they ARE CRIMES.

When they're cornered, they pull out their most disgusting trap cards possible - women, emotional appeals, low-blow attacks.
