You might be interested in knowing that, according to Life Site news, "For his conservative stands, however, Heston was attacked and reviled by his Hollywood colleagues. In 2003, actor and leftist political activist, George Clooney, joked about Heston's illness (Alzheimer's disease) and, after Heston criticized him for the remark, he retorted, 'I don't care. Charlton Heston is the head of the National Rifle Association. He deserves whatever anyone says about him'." (Town hall.com, 4/10/08).
It is fair to say that Clooney made fun of someone with Alzheimer's disease and, because he disagreed with Heston's politics, that made it OK.
Classy guy.
