American actor George Clooney stepped up his criticism of George W. Bush's administration on Sunday, saying he feared a war against Iraq was inevitable but would ultimately only lead to more violence. "America's policies frustrate me," Clooney said in a German television program. "I think a war against Iraq is as unavoidable as it senseless. I think it's coming. But I also think the real danger is going to be what happens after it." Clooney, who in interviews with European newspapers has accused Bush of war-mongering over Iraq, is on a growing list of Hollywood celebrities to speak out against war. Others include Sean Penn, Ed Harris, Dustin Hoffman, Madonna and director Spike Lee. "You can't beat your enemy anymore through wars; instead you create an entire generation of people revenge-seeking," Clooney said in the ARD television program "Beckmann." "These days it only matters who's in charge," Clooney said. "Right now that's us -- for a while at least. Our opponents are going to resort to car bombs and suicide attacks because they have no other way to win." Clooney, 41, said Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was making a mistake to think a war against Iraq would be an easy win for the United States. "I believe he thinks this is a war that can be won, but there is no such thing anymore," said Clooney, who starred in a film about the 1991 Gulf War "Three Kings" that took a dark look at the war to drive Iraq out of Kuwait. "We can't beat anyone anymore," added Clooney, who has called it unfair that Americans opposed to war are being branded unpatriotic. Clooney, who won fame for his leading role in long-running hospital drama "ER," has also appeared in films including "Batman and Robin," "The Perfect Storm" and "Brother Where Art Thou?." {Lets start boycotting these anti American B.S. artists} washingtonpost.com

The fact of San fran protsts San francisco rally crowd size reduced again! You may have heard that after viewing aerial photography of the sf crowd, crowd count went down to 65,000.....then When the squints started looking at the images and the details of the crowd, they found that more than 1/3 of the crowd were actually Oakland Raider fans who were just making it through to san fransisco arriving at the time of the rally. These fans had been lost in disappointment, after their teams drubbing in the super bowl, after numerous long stops at pubs along the way, finally arrived to what they thought was a Welcome Home Fans crowd, but was actually a group organized by the local missing persons bureau setting out to search for the missing fans. Hindsight dictates that The event might best be characterized by breaking the entire group into thirds. 1/3 Raiders fans still dressed in their Raider garb, 1/3 normal looking people who were part of the search committee, and 1/3 demonstrators most wearing scarfs and mumbling incoherently. It's a surprise when history is revised so completely so soon breaking most laws of revisioning, my guess is that without the technology we would have been left with that fraudulant story line published by the left. this Post dedicated to jennie garaffalo
