“I’m disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned by Obama”
And will.i.am, creator of that viral video that ended with the word “HOPE,” told The New York Times earlier this year: “I don’t want to hope anymore.” Asked if he was disappointed in Obama, he said: “I don’t feel disappointed. I feel like, Argggh! Speak louder! I feel like, Do something!”
What about core Obama celebrity supporters Clooney and Winfrey? Far from being disillusioned with Obama, Clooney said recently: “I’m disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned by Obama.”
“Democrats eat their own,” the actor said. “I’m a firm believer in sticking by and sticking up for the people whom you’ve elected.” He went on to list the accomplishments of the Obama administration, wondering why Democrats weren’t selling them better.

I’ll tell you what, Clooney: eat this.

Here’s a tip Cloonster: Those “accomplishments” are the reason he is opposed.

Someone oughta let C-Looney know that leftist ideology is inherently designed to eat one’s own.

What accomplishments? I know you’re not gonna cite all the al-Queda operatives and evil dictators he’s killed. Because by that rationale, Dubya was a pretty damn good President as well.

I’m disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned by Obama.

This has been the longest three years of my life.
NeoKong on December 31, 2011 at 4:05 PM
And I’m disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned with Obama.
I think I just injured myself there…
Kraken on December 31, 2011 at 4:05 PM
Dang it, it’s all in the timing. If I could only type/spell disillusioned faster…
Kraken on December 31, 2011 at 4:07 PM
So he previously had the false belief that others held a false belief and now he’s come to the conclusion that others don’t have a false belief anymore.
And this makes him sad?
29Victor on December 31, 2011 at 4:07 PM
That’s what you say when you know you can’t find something intelligent to say. Kind of like saying, “I know you are, but what am I?” to the nerd in the playground when you are trying to be cool.

Ctrl C, Ctrl V my friend…Ctrl C, Ctrl V.

1. Someone pulled him off the golf course so Scottie could warp him to Pakistan to kill Osama Bin Laden and then warp him back so he could look like he was only a spectator but making a bold decision all by himself.
2. …
2. …give me some time, I’m thinking…

I’m disappointed by people who were delusional about Obama.

Celebutards are cute when they think their opinions matter.
tom daschle concerned on December 31, 2011 at 4:15 PM
Depends on your definition of the word ‘you’ve’ is. Is that a collective you’ve, or a singular you’ve?
I’m sure he mean the same thing from 2000-2008.

Democrats advocate forcibly removing wealth from one person’s pockets to another, and this celeb-u-tard is complaining about a tendancy to eat one’s own within the Democratic party?!
You can’t make shit like this up!
gryphon202 on December 31, 2011 at 4:18 PM
Agreed, although for myself I’d also place the period 1976-1980 in a virtual tie.
Difficultas_Est_Imperium on December 31, 2011 at 4:25 PM
I’m too old; never had those on typewriters…
Kraken on December 31, 2011 at 4:46 PM
Okay, I give up. I no longer want George as my neighbor.
Fallon on December 31, 2011 at 4:57 PM
Well,
Since I didn’t elect Obama, I figure I’m OK by George….
OH, I bet he means something entirely different, such as “why can’t we all just get along” or something….
ProfShadow on December 31, 2011 at 5:06 PM
I hate it when these thoughts just come along…
I’m disillusioned by people who were fooled by the illusion of Obama.
ProfShadow on December 31, 2011 at 5:08 PM
That’s okay George because I’m disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned by the people who are disillusioned by Obama.
rukiddingme on December 31, 2011 at 5:21 PM
Ah, you beat me to the punch.
rukiddingme on December 31, 2011 at 5:22 PM
My Sainted Brother, on his death bed was agitated over the thought of Hillary as pres. If he could only see what happened.
Dingbat63 on December 31, 2011 at 5:58 PM
Since I was never illusioned by Obama, I have no fear of becoming disillusioned. Obama turned out exactly the way I expected him to turn out, although I admit that I failed to imagine the extent to which the system failed to prevent the worst of his excesses. What kind of rational system fails to reject that which will kill it?
