Obama Cleans Up at Clooney's Swiss Fundraisers




Memo to Team McCain: Here's some fodder for your next celebutard commercial.

Two Geneva fundraising events for US presidential candidate Barack Obama hosted by George Clooney have raised more than $900,000 (SFr1 million).

The Hollywood actor and director arrived in Geneva on Tuesday for his first appearance on behalf of the Democratic nominee.

Some 170 contributors – all US citizens – paid $1,000 a head to hear Clooney speak at a cocktail party held at a museum in Geneva's Old Town.

Afterwards, 75 supporters spent $10,000 each to attend "an intimate seated dinner" with the 47-year-old star at the organiser's nearby apartment, according to the American lawyer Charles Adams who set up the twin "private" events.

"Actually most of our guests for dinner are coming from elsewhere – people are flying in from Los Angeles, Prague, London, Zurich and so on," Adams said before the event.

Isn't that special?

So while Team Obama and their media whores trash Sarah Palin as some hick chick from the sticks, fatcat liberals are flying in from across the globe for foreign fundraisers for The Messiah.

Curious how last month Clooney pretended to distance himself from Obama. Guess he figured nobody would pay much attention. Naturally, the media largely ignored it.
