Hillary, Obama and the Hollywood Wars

February 22nd, 2007

David Geffen, a Hollywood mogul and major financial supporter of Barack Obama, gave a candid interview to New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd. The conversation was far too candid for the Clintons, with Geffen providing some juicy, though far from flattering comments about the Clintons. He described Bill Clinton as “reckless” and Hillary as “polarizing.” Perhaps most pertinent, he pointed out the arrogance of Hillary not appologizing for her Iraq war vote. He also spoke about the pardongate affair at the terminus of the Clinton presidency.

The Clintonian political machine, chests pumped up with anger, has denounced Geffen’s trashing of the Clintons, and demanded that Barack Obama denounce his important Hollywood financial supporter. Not much chance of that happening. However, this episode points out two things: 1. Conservatives are not the only Americans who recognize the duplicity and arrogance of the Clintons, many liberals do as well, not to mention independent voters; 2. the race for the Democratic nomination will get steamier and uglier, with the Hillaryland crowd shedding away restraint.

Geffen’s observations echo many of the conclusions I come to in my book on Hillary Clinton and 2008, “Hillary Clinton Nude: Naked Ambition, Hillary Clinton And America’s Demise.”

The attack dogs of Hillary and Bill Clinton are at it again.It was alright for Geffen to raise big bucks for Bill Clinton, but now that he is behind Obama, watch out! The Clintons tolerate no dissent, and do not forgive.
