UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon named actor George Clooney, who has campaigned for refugees in Darfur, as a U.N. "messenger of peace" on Friday to promote the world body's peacekeeping efforts.

Clooney is the ninth U.N. messenger -- people chosen from the fields of art, music, literature and sports who have agreed to help focus attention on the United Nations' work.

U.N. spokeswoman Michele Montas said Clooney would have a special emphasis on peacekeeping. She said he had been "recognized for focusing public attention on crucial international political and social issues."

Clooney, who is currently in Sudan, will receive his designation on January 31 at U.N. headquarters.

That assumes that women are stoopid, doesn't it? I've found that not to be the case.

Coming down with the stomache flu...it has been going around...or was it that Clooney may run for office...

 

[evince]

He would be better than Bush.

How can people who voted for a guy like bush scoff at the thought of a guy like him possibly running? At least he would ACTUALLY be fun to have a beer with.

Hmm good point. But I think the guy might be a bit to smart to actually want the job.

Why? It's the policy I hate. I don't want to see Clooney as President because he is pretty opposite me politically.

Plus, I wouldn't say this if he was talking about him being Senator in California. I don't care who they vote in as Senator, nor do I think being an actor disqualifies you from politics.

When it comes down to a straight choice between George Clooney being elected president of the United States of America and a potential Ocean's 27, there really is only one sane option.

You know what you have to do people.
