was the inspiration for the character Ari Gold in the show Entourage which is awesome.

I wonder if Rep.Emanuel is anything like his brother, who has struck fear and admiration all over Hollywood.

1. Oooh
Huge Entourage fan here. Especially Adrian Grenier - who has the male version of my name. :-) (Just thought I'd take advantage of an Entourage mention to point out how hot hot hot I think Adrian Grenier is!)

2. and their brother is an internationally reknown medical ethicist
Ezekiel Emmanuel who deals in end of life issues. That is one intelligent power family.

3. You are kidding. You think that's a good way to choose our leaders?
While one of our Democratic leaders was pleading that the GOP should not use immigrants as scapegoats as they had other minorities....Rahm was telling the candidates he handled to "go right" to win on such issues. It was shameful.

Obama, Howard Dean speak up against attacks on immigrants...Rahm says "move right to win"

It's got to be one or the other, because Rahm Emanuel is behind efforts to build Democratic support for the Shuler/Tancredo "enforcement-only" bill currently winding its way through the House.

Think about it -- our House leadership is strong-arming Democrats into backing a bill which is the central agenda of the biggest racist xenophobe Tom Tancredo.


..."So we won, didn't we? Not according to Rahm and the either bigoted or scared contingent in the House that is ready to -- once again and demonstrably so -- be on the wrong side of the American public on this issue.

Americans don't want hate-based anti-immigration rhetoric and action, they want comprehensive immigration reform that secures our borders and provides a path to citizenship for the millions of undocumented immigrants in this country.

4. Nope, nothing like his brother
Rahm Emanuel is a warmongering, corporatist, DLC prick.

5. Endeavor?
So then does that mean President Obama is repped by Endeavor? :spank: I hope not; Endeavor also reps Paris Hilton, and that was Ari's decision...

/facepalm
