Clint is a sly old bird. He is using the GOPe snoozefest to get some face time and plug his new movie which just happens to be coming out.

Marketing research probably indicated that the old geezer GOPe faithful watching the Ward and June Cleaver infomercial disguised as a political party convention would be a target audience for senior citizen Clint who seems to be looking for that Henry Fonda role On Golden Pond.

Is that your picture next to “cynical” in the dictionary?

Well your being a bit tongue in cheeky but you made me smile, especially the Ward and June Cleaver snark.

So I saw your post and I kinda chuckled.

Because last night I was thinking the same thing. I wonder what the “other side”, I speak of the homosexuals, the single mothers, the lazy liberals, you know all those sorts as far away from a Leave It to Beaver family as they come, I wonder what they think of the Republican display of perfect families.

Cause oncit, long time ago during my college days, I was a liberal and I’d have been rolling on the floor over those blonde wives and their picture perfect kids.

Now I know that such a family, putting aside the snark for a minute, is just the sort of thing most of us want in life.

It’s when, for various reasons, we don’t have this that we get a bit snarky and snakey about it.

Hope you know your point isn’t lost here but now that I’m older, no longer a silly liberal, I understand what the hostility was all about.

More likely is that he loves his country.

Unlike many who just bitch and moan about everything, he isn’t sitting on his lazy ass and pontificating on his computer...... he is taking action. To make his views known, to make a real impact, to serve as an example.

Eastwood does NOT need the publicity for his new movie. In fact, he is taking a chance that he might offend a large portion of the potential audience for his movie. So he is taking a risk, probably because he loves his country.

"Marketing research probably indicated that the old geezer GOPe faithful watching the Ward and June Cleaver infomercial disguised as a political party convention would be a target audience for senior citizen Clint who seems to be looking for that Henry Fonda role On Golden Pond."

That's one way of looking at it. Then again, it could be an iconic performance that people will look back as the game-set-match...

Or mayyyybe he really is hoping for a change in 2012...

Oh, and I don’t think the convention is a snoozefest....

Sounds like you have issues that need to be dealt with.
