Hollywood supporting a Democrat? Color me shocked.

No word yet on how Cloony expects to avoid the ban on political contributions by foreign nationals.

That's not the question. He can do whatever he wants for the candidate he's supporting. Why have the fund raiser in a foreign country that has no bearing on our election? There is nowhere here in the states where he could have this?

You really shouldn't be speaking on this matter...

As for George, he can do it wherever the hell he wants? Why do you (not directed towards Sonnabend) care so much?

Eyelids,

It appears Sonna knows more about US election laws than you. It is illegal to accept contributions from foreign nationals. This can be circumvented by bundling, as Bill Clinton taught us and Jamie Gorelich hekped cover up and whose consequence led to other things.
