Apparently there are videos being posted on the Web of people scolding an empty chair.

Put a faded red & blue Obama poster on the wall, and you’d have a great picture.

For the first time in my life I am metaphorically proud to covey my feelings to an empty chair.

Seniors all over the USA will not appreciate the Left’s disrespect for Clint Eastwood and seniors. And, why shouldn’t they, they support Death Panels for seniors. I’ve often described ObamaCare/DeathCare as the next Holocaust. You judge for yourself, or, see how you feel when you, too, or a member of your family, face a Big Bro/Obama/Pelosi/Reid death panel and are told that it is not cost-effective to give you life-saving treatment.

Four more years of this and we can all bend over and kiss our rears goodbye, in my opinion. What’s yours?

They haven’t had an original idea since the 1970’s. They still think socialism is all the rage.

Obama has been filling chairs his entire career. By now, he’s an expert.

Mine? The same as yours. This is the last gasp for America as a great country. Either we get this election right or we go down the crapper.

I’m a senior myself. I belong to an organization (two actually) that is made up mostly (98% perhaps) of seniors. I can tell you without consulting them what most will say about the left’s attack on Eastwood. They can go to Hell.

Clint had some great lines last night, but I admit I was kind of 50-50 on Eastwood's overall performance. I've since reconsidered. Perhaps it was a stroke of genius...

Last night/early this AM on the post-convention talking head shows, libs were both amused and apoplectic over Clint's routine. One young liberal woman on Chris Matthew's MSNBC panel - who I think was from Comedy Central - said: "I liked it... I thought it was a great piece of performance art. I'm just sorry that he's not on... on OUR SIDE." (my paraphrase)

Sometimes, it is just better to throw it out when it has
out-lived it's usefulness.

I’m old enough to remember Jimmy Stewart doing Harvey and that’s what I saw Eastwood doing last night. It worked for me.

Continuing the trend that there’s an ass for every seat.

That is a GREAT link, thanks for posting it.

Eastwood served as the one who points out the inescapable fact that the emperor has no clothes.

The Greatest Piece of Performance Art in American Political History -- Ed Timperlake

Americans can hear hard messages coming from Clint. He has a certain immunity that comes with being old and beloved. Yes, some of his sentences did not complete themselves. Yes, he was a bit doddering. And yes, his F yourself jokes were crude. Grandpa sometimes embarrasses the family at birthdays and anniversaries by bringing up uncomfortable topics. But everyone also loves Grandpa, and realizes he tells the truth because he hasn't got that much longer with us, and doesn't give a damn anymore what people think. The one thing everyone remembers about the party afterward is when Grandpa mentioned the adultery, the grandkid who did drugs, or the other secrets that everyone prefers to keep their mouths shut about.

There are lots of truths about President Obama -- including that he really isn't such a nice guy -- that the media will not allow consideration of. Except from Grandpa.

So yes, MSNBC pundits, go on and on about "senile old Clint" or his "bizarre" presentation. Keep people thinking about the un-pc message he delivered.



Yep. Go ahead. Make our day. (spits)

All I can say in response is: Go to hell you Obama-shilling crybabies. Eastwood showed more grit and honestly in those few minutes than you water carriers have during your entire propaganda-for-the-collective careers.

Take that NBC, ABC, CNN, CBS, PBS, NPR, Washington Post, New York Times, Chris Matthews - all you so called journalists... all of you water carriers for white liberal elites. Eff yourselves...(Even if Eastwood says people can't do that to themselves...)
