Jack's dad upset with Clooney!

“Who would name their kid Jack with the last words ‘off’ at the end of your last name? No wonder that guy is screwed up,” Clooney said during the internationally televised awards show.

1. Shut up, Abramoff, your son is a criminal, so shut...
the fuck up. He may get pardoned by Bush, but he will always be a crook.

2. Someone should send in a letter
advising the father to put on his war paint and buy a casino.

4. Well, if you had raised him right
Clooney wouldn't be talking about him, right?

Too bad.
Jackie boy made himself a public figure, thus making himself and the family name fair game. Maybe Daddy Abramoff should complain to his son.

7. I LOVE Nick Clooney's (George C's dad) response!!!
In a phone interview with The Desert Sun today, Clooney said he wasn’t surprised by his son’s “off hand and flippant” remarks, but did relate with Frank Abramoff’s concerns.

“I understand what it is like to have one's son criticized in a very public way,” Clooney said. “It's very painful and it's very difficult.

“The difference here, and it must be said, is Mr. Abramoff's son, instead of pursing some positive efforts to do what he hoped would change the climate of the American politics has confessed and has been convicted by that confession of subverting the political process,” Clooney said.

“It’s not Mr Abramoff senior’s fault that he turned out to be who he is any more than it is to my credit that my son turned out to be what he turned out to be.”
