ScarJo Screams Sexism Over Obama Email Hoopla

The actress claims that if George Clooney had emailed the politician, no one would have cared, so why's she under the microscope?

Scarlett Johansson apparently never had a crush on Barack Obama. Or at least in the way some media outlets have made it out to be.

In fact, the actress believes all the attention surrounding her recent comments about an email relationship with the Democratic presidential hopeful reeks of "extreme sexism."

"I kept thinking to myself, 'God, if this was just, like, Kal Penn or George Clooney or any of the other [Obama] surrogates or supporters...there wouldn't be [any] question about it," she tells the Associated Press. "Nobody would even talk about it."

Perhaps. But then again, that Kumar guy never claimed to have had a "personal dialogue" with the Illinois senator, only to have him say that he had replied to just one email which had been forwarded to him by an assistant.
