If he can do that on cue, he might have a future in porn. Razz But, actually, as with most of these accusations, I have a problem with the "is now" part. Why now? Why not then?

http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/09/...weinstein/index.html

former Democratic Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, as well as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton -- all of whom have longstanding ties to Weinstein, a major Democratic Party fundraiser -- have not publicly addressed the accusations.

Representatives for the Clintons have not responded to comment for this story, and Obama's office declined to comment.

Longtime Hillary Clinton aides have been confused by the former secretary of state's silence on the issue, questioning -- in private -- why she has not weighed in at all.

quite a mystery, huh?

Weinstein has long been a Clinton donor with ties to the political family. Weinstein was one of many from Hollywood who donated to Bill Clinton's legal defense fund in the 1990s, a Washington Post report from the time stated. More recently, the Clintons rented a home next to Weinstein in the Hamptons in 2015, and Weinstein served as a connector between Hollywood stars and Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign.

Clinton personally headlined multiple fundraisers Weinstein was involved in organizing during the campaign.

Weinstein was a bundler for Obama as well, and the Hollywood giant visited the White House on several occasions during Obama's tenure.

In any other context this perspective would be a sexist cliche.

George Clooney adds this bit of nonsense:

“I’ve known Harvey for 20 years. He gave me my first big break as an actor in films on From Dusk Till Dawn, he gave me my first big break as a director with Confessions of a Dangerous Mind,” Clooney said. “We’ve had dinners, we’ve been on location together, we’ve had arguments. But I can tell you that I’ve never seen any of this behavior—ever.”

“A lot of people are doing the ‘you had to know’ thing right now, and yes, if you’re asking if I knew that someone who was very powerful had a tendency to hit on young, beautiful women, sure ,” Clooney said. “But I had no idea that it had gone to the level of having to pay off eight women for their silence, and that these women were threatened and victimized.”

Clooney is either covering his own sense of guilt, or he is putting friendship ahead of honesty.

Bama, I concur fully. If Weinstein were a Repub supporter, the libs would have gone ballistic. And Trump would have been dragged into the mud pit.

Where is the part about returning all the "soiled" campaign contributions? cutting off all ties to such a person? demanding prosecution?

where's Bill's statement? "Harvey is my kind of dude - I want to party with that guy. Where's the starlets? I want to help "interview"..."

This asshole is lying thru his teeth.

Now A-Listers are coming out, acknowledging they knew of his behavior, including Paltrow, Jolie, and Brad Pitt. Clooney was best buddies with these people, of course everyone knew.

What a sick bunch of people.

amazing. Hillary Clinton's whole campaign was about empowering and honoring women. Break the glass ceiling.

and she is married to a man who exploited women his whole life

her closest aide married a serial pervert who will go to prison

and now her strongest link to the riches of the Hollywood heavyweight phonies is called out to be a 30 year abuser of young women.

If we can somehow work Bill Cosby into the mix, it will be a perfect Perv Storm.
