Reports are saying that George Clooney has taken some heat from pussy US lobbyist Jack Abramoff's family, after making fun at him in his Golden Globes Best Supporting Actor acceptance speech last Monday.George joked, "Who would name their kid 'Jack' with 'off' at the end? No wonder the guy's screwed up." This pissed off Abramoff's father, who was watching the awards show at home. Frank Abramoff has since fired off a letter to Clooney in a newspaper the Palm Springs Desert Sun.
Abramoff's father says, "Your glib and ridiculous attack on my son, Jack, coupled with your obscene query as to the choice his mother and I made in naming him brought shame and dishonoring you and your profession. What drove you to this lapse in lucidity, I can never know, but you need to know that your words were deeply hurtful to many innocent and decent people. Are you the heir to the dignity and greatness of Hollywood's past, or, more likely, a portent to a depressing and horrific future?"
Give me a break. I am getting really tired of all these people getting pissed off over jokes. People get made fun of every day, it's no big deal. Just the other day I made fun of my mothers case of herpes. Did she start bitching and moaning? No. She knew it was a good joke and gave me a high 5.
