Rob Reiner Sings For Clinton

Share

October 22, 2007 3:36 AM

ABC News' Eloise Harper reports: Rob Reiner sang a rousing rendition of "Happy Birthday, Mrs. President" in honor of Senator Hillary Clinton at his Brentwood, California, home on Sunday evening.

Celebrities came to see to see Clinton, D-N.Y., and to celebrate in advance of the former first lady's 60th birthday.  Although they didn't bring gifts, celebrities from Jamie Lee Curtis, Magic Johnson, Ted Danson, Bridget Moynihan and Chelsea Handler raised a half a million dollars for the Clinton campaign and enjoyed cocktails and hors deouvres in return.

Despite the massive fires miles away in Malibu, guests were greeted by men dressed in head to toe white, with lavender bow ties saying with "Welcome to the Reiner's," as they shuffled up and down the street parking Bentleys, Porsches, and BMWs.

In a town where loyalty is split between Clinton and rival Senator Barack Obama, D-Ill., the famous actor turned director Reiner made the push for his candidate in this Hollywood crowd.

"This is a tough time right now and we need the best woman qualified," Reiner said.

Clinton thanked Steve Bing and other guests at the event before delivering her standard stump speech. About 250 people applauded as Clinton outlined her disapointment with the Bush administration.

Well, isn't that special. The Hollywood elite/royalty throw a b-day soiree for Comrade Hillary.

I guess Joe McCarthy wasn't all that wrong about Hollywood socialism.

And Reiner played the fiddle while Rome burned!

Posted by: nero | Oct 22, 2007 8:28:46 AM

I wonder if I can get a job with one of these Hollywood Production companies... I have no experience, no resume, and really have no clue how to run a business.... opps that is like Hillarys resume for President. I just figured they werent into experience and capability. How bout it Reiner?

Posted by: truthguys | Oct 22, 2007 8:29:31 AM

Did MeatHead also sing "Nearer My God to Thee" as that is where a Hillary Presidency will put the US but then again they don't don't believe in God do they unless the deity is in the likeness of George Soros.
Perhaps singing the Soviet national anthem would be appropriate too for such class warfare agendas, values and beliefs as for Mr Clinton's and her husband's.

Posted by: PM | Oct 22, 2007 8:29:37 AM

So Hollywood supports the Democrats, no matter who they are.

How exactly is news to anyone?

Posted by: Good Lt | Oct 22, 2007 8:29:38 AM

Chelsea Handler is a celebrity? The reporter should check their facts.

Posted by: TEd | Oct 22, 2007 8:30:16 AM

Just a preview of the future. This gathering of wealthy elitists that force socialism on the rest of America will beocme commonplace, at least until our country collapses due when business and industry leave after all incentive and opprotunioty are killed by socialism, high taxes and big govt.!

Posted by: Ricardo maxwell | Oct 22, 2007 8:36:04 AM

Honestly, I think this is Hillary's moment to jump the shark. I mean, Rob Reiner, isn't exactly on the A-list. Nor are the others listed here. However, middle America sees that a socialist like Reiner is in Hillary's camp. And that's all they need to know to vote against her. Hillary will get creamed in 2008 no matter who the Republican nominee is.

Posted by: Esteban | Oct 22, 2007 8:42:01 AM

I was puzzled by the fact I wasn't invited to the big party for Hillary until I read the guest list and realized I haven't a clue who Bridget Moynihan and Chelsea Handler are.

Posted by: Tom | Oct 22, 2007 8:43:33 AM

Let this be a lesson to America; we can all drive Porsche's, Bentley's, and BMW's if we voted for Obama or Hillary. Unfortunately, Obama and Hillary know the Ex-big 3 auto makers are struggling but love to attend fundraisers who drive foreign made and promote foreign based vehicles. Also, why wasn't O.J. Simpson invited? Wade

Rob Reiner is and always has been a commi low life whose lust for my once beautiful country (USA) is to reform it in his, and his peers, vision. Rob and his disgusting father both worked their lives to turn the US away from its strong moral stance into a Babylonian house. And here we are today, scum bag Reiner playing his same games.

Posted by: Cal | Oct 22, 2007 8:51:03 AM

Is this the same Rob Reiner that spewed anti-Polish rhetoric for so many years on his TV show?

Posted by: Ray | Oct 22, 2007 8:52:19 AM

"hour dourves"? Sure hope this post wasn't written by someone paid to write! (Of course, it would be delightful if that's what Reiner et al. called them.)

The pathological lier is again on the move to fool people all the time.She said she has experience in running the government, beside being a senator, she has no experience whatsoever except ruining the lives of the clinton women who charged her husband with rape and other shenanigans.

I'm waiting how long it will take the Malibu elite to parrot their kindred spirits, those of the lower quarters of New Orleans, about how Bush & his FEMA director abandoned them in their time of need.

"Where Was Bush!!!!"

Can you imagine? "We were without a place to live & the G5 was in Miami so we had to take a commercial flight to our place in Jackson Hole."

I wonder what it must like to be able to afford to actually be liberal.

Posted by: Reality Bytes | Oct 22, 2007 9:01:52 AM

Anyone else think that Rob Reiner is the complete opposite of Marilyn Monroe? And that a song famously sang to a unfaithful president is a poor choice for the wife of an unfaithful president?

Posted by: John Davies | Oct 22, 2007 9:03:50 AM

Hillary and Hollywood are the new aristocracy. They live lives better than any European monarch and see them selves as the ones who will bestow upon the lowly surfs who aren't them any blessing that might befall are pitiful lives. We have life and liberty from and because of them not our constitution.

Posted by: Steven Wiberg | Oct 22, 2007 9:05:42 AM

Could you imagine if a Republican fundraiser was going on while not too far away fires were burning widly and bringing down homes? The elite liberals would be screaming!!! However, these liberals throw $Hillary a birthday party/fundraiser and everyone is happy go lucky. And what about global warming? Between all the Bentleys, BMWs and Porsches lined up outside his home, the carbon footprint must have been the size of Antartica!!! What a bunch of phonies! Rob Reiner truly is a MeatHead.

Posted by: Nick | Oct 22, 2007 9:13:43 AM

Gee, ya think the press would write such a loving piece if Bush, Cheney or any other repub were honored w/ such lavishness? No, all we'd hear about is how much it cost and how (Bush, etc) is a prime example of born-into elitism and corporate greed. Too bad the press can't see reality through the liberal democrat goggles they wear and realize there is no more corporate greed in this world than the smut, gore, and violence propaganda machine that calls itself Hollywood, except maybe the democrats.

I use to think they were phonies, now there is no doubt in their mind - they are! What if republicans had this type of fundraising -
the Dems would come after them like vultures. Reiner ...YOU ARE a meathead!!

p.s. i saw Matt Drudge there with his Life Partner.

Posted by: e | Oct 22, 2007 9:29:27 AM

The real deal - Socialists throw a hack event like this and it shows up on the front page as society and glamour industry news. Republicans do it and you will find it on the op ed pages full of condemnation. Democrats are not all socialists but all socialists are democrats. When the 'liberal' tag got too hot for them, they (with the help of the MSM changed their moniker to 'progressive'. Imagine that. Know a socialist for who they are, what they are and what they will do to this country if they gain control.

Posted by: Tin Cup | Oct 22, 2007 9:33:18 AM

Ah, yes. Another democrat fund raiser attended only by those who can claim a Hollywood friend who has lots of cash. Yet another example of how Clinton knows the pain of the average family. "It's a pain for her to lower her living standards to pretend she cares."

Wonder how many Chinese cooks, waitresses and janitors Mr. Rob HobKnob invited? Oh, I forgot about the servents. Guys like this are making millions off of re-runs, which is what the unions in Hollywood are striking over. Where is the compassion Mr. DimWit. Or better yet, where is the outrage of people like HRC?

With all the hot air and no oxygen (these celebs were all oxygen deficient----probably too much time in the birth cannal), and the hot fumes from their toy vehicles, no wonder that part of California is on fire.

How many times is Clinton going to get away with these illegal fund raisers wrapped up as private parties. Her fund raising efforts will be her downfall. Ever wonder why she has yet to be investigated for them? My guess: Bush is waiting until she gets the nomination. Then he will unleash his federal prosecuters. Starting with a get out of jail free card for Hsu.

Posted by: RonFella | Oct 22, 2007 9:52:20 AM

Rob Reiner, Ted Danson and fellow vapid, self-absorbed, lock-step bobble heads show support for Hillary Clinton at a giant Girl Scout Jamboree. (Sigh) With endorsements like that I guess the rest of us should just pack it in and concede defeat...

I haven't been to a movie theater in years because these trashy liberals don't deserve my money.
Thanks for the History chanel and Discovery. That's my entertainment, and I don't miss these sickining people.

Posted by: bederest | Oct 22, 2007 10:04:43 AM

There is no point wasting your effort trying to convince Hilary's fans that she is an evil nutcase. They can't see it. They have swallowed too much koolaid at this point. There is literally NOTHING that she and her husband could do that would steer these maniacs from their path of abject loyalty. The only thing we can do is turn out in equally maniacal force in support of whomever receives the Republican nomination.

Posted by: Joe | Oct 22, 2007 10:05:13 AM

I hope that the sentiment that H.C. will be beaten is true. But I have my doubts. It is strange enough that H.Clinton would even get this far grasping for a position she has almost no qualifications for.

Perhaps history's cruel lesson is that from time to time, we must suffer a "Jimmy Carter" in order to get our wheels back on the track and find a "Reagan".

Posted by: Al | Oct 22, 2007 10:07:38 AM

Did they show the movie Waco: Rules of Engagement? Thought they might enjoy remembering how Clinton tortured and gased her own citizens at Waco in 1993.

I see a lot of comments here about "commie Rob" et al living high while the rest of us are down in the dumps. Umm, what are Bush, Cheney et al doing, not to mention a few ceo's who are most definitely not of a socialist bent, now that they have not only put us in the dumps, but crreated them for us as well. Meathead hasn't put us in this position, the Republican party has. It's having it's own big party and fiddling away while they allow the rest of us to watch the country burn. I'm guessing Cheney's mansion and the Bush ranch are quite safe.

I forgot to mention...Sandy Berger got a complete pass in the media for stealing sensitive national archives documents to cover up for Hillary and her husband. All-wrong got a total pass for allowing Rwanda to happen while she debated the meaning of the word genocide...What about all the Rose law firm files that SUDDENLY turned up in the white house years after being requested (after they had been properly sanitized of course)...what about when Clinton dumped all the federal prosecutors appointed by Bush 41...what about Monica...What about PAULA JONES FOR GOODNESS sake? Come on people...we want four more years of that? Bill let us get attacked 7 times with hardly any response (lobbed a missile or two...didnt work obviously) while he rushed us into BOSNIA of all places! WE HAVE NOT BEEN ATTACKED SINCE 9/11 BECAUSE OF THE POLICIES OF THIS ADMINISTRATION AND THE BRAVE EFFORTS OF OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN UNIFORM AROUND THE WORLD. Treating terrorism as a law enforcement matter was the Clinton approach and got us attacked. Bush made the right choices...we are safer than before (Sorry New York Times). VOTE FOR GIULIANI if you want us to stay safe and prosperous.

Posted by: Joe | Oct 22, 2007 10:13:13 AM

yeah all these negative comments and yet another negative, self-absorbing story about Clinton, yet she keeps on leading in the polls. Why? Who are the airheads voting for her?

Posted by: jake | Oct 22, 2007 10:16:46 AM


You call Reiner and others in Hollywood socialists, yet they are the ones who know how to make money (do you like your $32,000/year job, dittohead?) and spend it.
You guys say Hillary has no resume yet your front-runner is Fred Thompson because he acts purty good on Law & Order.
You talking about Bill's cheating ways yet there is 3X-divorcee Giuiliani, McCain has been divorced (guess he's not a hero as a husband), and Fred has a trophy wife younger than his kids! The only non-cheater is Mitt....
So you see, they all suck. The only choice is.... Obama!

The champions of the underdog, but of course. They have such a hard life, just look at the abject poverty they suffer. Berger did get a pass as did Chinagate, but Watergate is celebrated annually as a cause celeb of their mantra of habituation and programming. Why does it take a defector to say what no one has the courage to say:

“…Chinese intelligence penetration of the American establishment became known …thanks to press reports about the handing of U.S. nuclear secrets to Beijing's communist leadership and the use of Chinese intelligence funds to assist the election campaigns of America's liberal-left politicians...”

There is one big difference big difference between next year's campaign and the one that the aspiring 'First Rapist' ran in 1992....he ran against an incumbent President who campaigned cleanly and perhaps just too politely for his own good.....and we all gave Slick the benefit of the doubt since most of us didn't know nearly enough about him....we will not make that mistake this time around having seen Rodham in action for many years now....she will not be treated like a 'lady' by those of us who are politically active at various levels...and since we also know she has no intention of fighting cleanly or fairly, she will not have the advantage of a naive and silent grass roots base opposition....she will be treated as what we now know her to be...

I must wish you all congrats in continuing to avoid shattering any stereotypes that conservatives have the debating abilities of 3rd graders. "Let's just call them names!"

Then, they are pretending all the time. Great actors = great pretenders. Hey glitterati, write checks to the groups you pretend to care about.

Americans have short memories. They have already forgotten 9-11. Of course the Liberals don't have any memories at all. They think that the Clinton years were glorious years for America, what with Mrs. Clinton as first lady and her husband - what's his face, you know, that guy who raped Juanita Broaderick and groped Kathleen Willey, and who had NO SEX with Monica Lewinsky - yea that guy being the occupant of the oval office. Well, I guess Meathead meets Mrs. Head Meat and sings for her his songs of praise. What a tub of crappola. How can America have gotten so low and stupid!

Posted by: Tagudinian | Oct 22, 2007 11:11:55 AM

They are not "Names" they are descriptions. The names are just a way to describe the way these big government actors who are mis guided.

Do they think that a democrat like clinton will give them slack if the government takes over our private decisions?

Who are these people who think that they deserve to take our hard earned fruits of our labor and hand it out to the non workers? And where did their authority come from that gives the govt the right to steal our money to waste on those who don't work.

It just seems to be that Hillary is willing to sell out to whom ever will pay her the highest buck. If you follow her "career" (I doubt she has ever gotten her hands dirty "working", let alone changed a diaper on her own kid) She has consistently hitched herself to whichever person, organization or group would propel her into the limelight.
It is entirely true to say she has no credible qualifications to hold any elected office, except the ability to get money out of people who otherwise might not give it to her.
Based on her statements it sounds like a huge tax increase is headed our way first quarter of the year, if she is elected.
Just remember the largest tax increase in the history of the country occurred with her husband, weeks after taking office, and it was rettro-active to before he was sworn in.
