Thank you, George (Hollyweird, Part 2)

Just when I think George Clooney can't make my job as one of the few conservatives in the entertainment industry, he goes and gives an Oscar acceptance speech.

Yes, indeed, Georgie-boy, Hollywood was ahead of the curve when it came to granting Hattie McDaniel an Academy Award for Gone with the Wind... Yes, again, when saying Hollywood was progressive regarding the civil rights movement. Here's where it gets tricky, though, George.

Who ran the studios at these points in time and what kind of political fence did they walk? Yup, that's right...conservatives/Republicans. Suppose he also missed that part of class that explained that 92% of Republicans supported the Civil Rights Act, compared to 62% of Democrats. One more time: facts, such pesky things...

Don't worry, Mistah Clooney, I'm sure you can re-define, distort and obfuscate this "whoops" just like you almost did with Good Night, and Good Luck. With little exception, it's about the only thing lefty "thinkers" are good for these days.
