Clooney: I'm not just a movie star, I'm a liberal movie star

George Clooney has publicly declared his political orientation with a blog entry at the Huffington Post headlined ‘I Am a Liberal. There, I Said It!‘ Here’s what Clooney says about liberalism:

But turn away from saying “I’m a liberal” and it’s like you’re turning away from saying that blacks should be allowed to sit in the front of the bus, that women should be able to vote and get paid the same as a man, that McCarthy was wrong, that Vietnam was a mistake.
