(182,879 posts)Paraphrased but this is the gist of it
Conservatives said "They are witches! BURN THEM!"
Moderates said "Well they COULD be witches so maybe should burn some of them"
Liberals said "There's no proof they are witches"*
*the liberals part is either that or "There are no such things as witches"
Either works.

(31,404 posts)George Clooney came in and was seated at the booth next to mine. I had a direct view of him. He was with another man for a late dinner. We had come after a concert.
The restaurant went quiet when everyone realized who had walked in. The thing that was most remarkable was how polite he was to the wait staff. Every time he said something to a waiter it was please or thank you. He didn't sit down and demand attention.
I'll bet 45 has never said please or thank you to a waiter in his life.
I'll be the first in line to buy the tell all book from the White House staff member who retires when 45 is gone and spills the truth on what it was like to have to serve that orange sack of shit after serving gracious people like the Obamas.

He has a lovely family with Amal and their twins.
Dave even went to George's parents home in Kentucky and talked to them. They also appear to be wonderful folks who sponsor an Iraqi refugee.

(16,296 posts)He came from a show-biz family that had money and connections. If he "struggled" it was with a golden spoon heritage and a foot on third base.
I like the guy , but he inflated his "struggle".
His Aunt is Rosemary Clooney. His dad, Nick, was the long-running local news anchor for ABC in Cincinnati during my youth.
The point is that George didn't grow up spoiled. His dad made him earn money.

(6,207 posts)..... more than the Koch Bros bought politicians.
The "hollywood elite" are voted in by support of their viewing public. Make good movies that draw large audience and you move up the ladder to success.
Agree with Koch ideology no matter how ill conceived it is and unjust to the poor and middle class and they will buy you a seat at the table so you can prosecute their agenda.
