An online site reporting yesterday that Obama would appear at a fundraiser with Hollywood moguls, said his appearance would be "a rare bow" to Hollywood. I have to ask if writer Ira Teinowitz lives on this planet. Ira, just google the Hollywood types routinely invited to the White House to lobby or enjoy taxpayer cocktails...please. See a George Clooney video below.
