Obama’s ball and chain slogan from here on...”EMPTY CHAIR!” LOL! LOve it! Masterful, just simply masterful! My college son who surfs the net a lot told me that the net is buzzing with the clint, empty chair statement and he says that Obozo is being ridicule over the STUPID picture he posted. I'm telling you forget the mediaWHORES, the outside folk are getting it and it's devastating to OJOKER!! Trust me if my son is telling me this it's BIG!

Demmie weren't the only ones. The local talkie here in Huntsville, Al lampooned it today calling it an embarrassment. The nice thing about actions like Eastwood's is that eventually unearth the shallow, stupid and pretenders on both sides of the aisle.

You must be talking about Dale Jackson. What an a**hat he is. When I take the kids to school I listen Rick & Bubba instead of that jerk.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Yep. Usually listen to WAY FM in the morning. Helps put me in a better frame of mind for work. Made the mistake of tuning to 92.5 this morning.

Good job!

Is Hillary trying to suppress a laugh?

[sushiman]

Only Eastwood could have pulled this off . I was a bit miffed with him re : the J Edgar movie , but he is forgiven now .

[Calpublican]

Had lunch today with a group of friends who all happen to be conservative. All of them, men and women, loved Clint's comment about firing someone who isn't doing the job.

It's so hard to criticize because we're immediately deemed racist, but Clint doesn't care. Go ahead make his day!!!!

[ApplegateRanch]

One of the most overlooked subtleties was his parody of The Greatest Orator In All History’s egregious speech patterns.

Conservatives understand chess; liberals understand checkers.

Make that snakes and ladders!

[Smokeyblue]

Clint did more in 11 minutes than the Republicans have done in 4 years.

I loved it. Nice job Clint. You rocked it!

[smoothsailing]

Trust me if my son is telling me this it's BIG!

I definitely believe you. I think Clint Eastwood all but handed America a Romney victory and an Obama defeat. This is one of those things in politics that are remembered and talked about for a long time. A turning point.

Oh, they didn't "miss" the subtlety, they just can't bring themselves to acknowledge that the entire world "got" Eastwood's message loud and clear--and they have nowhere to hide.

Agree, too, with Applegateranch about the genius of Eastwood's use of his object's own "egregious speech pattern," commonly referred to by pseudointellectual "progressives" as a sign of Obama's great intellect and deliberative style.

Another gem was his use of a former President's assessment of Romney's "stellar business performance" in this total unmasking of the great destroyer of business in America.

Jeez, Applegate ...

Now I’ll need to watch Clint’s masterful performance yet AGAIN, with yet ANOTHER layer of subtlety to look for. I never thought about Obummer’s sloppy, stumbling speech pattern when he’s not reading from a teleprompter.

Clint Eastwood quietly made history on Thursday night. Glad I got to watch it.

I can’t take credit, I found it here...

Can you describe Clint’s parody of zero’s speech patterns? Maybe I forgot when he did this....

One thing that seemed obvious to me is that now it’s mainstream to mock Obama and his so called “soaring rhetoric” is not only exposed as empty and meaningless but it’s fun to ridicule zero for his baloney.

[loveliberty2]

This was a priceless and iconic performance which will live on, long after Eastwood is gone, and Obama is a distant memory in the rearview mirror of presidents.

The so-called "progressives" and their talking heads, including Geraldo, didn't "miss" the subtlety, they just can't bring themselves to acknowledge that the entire world "got" Eastwood's message loud and clear--and they have nowhere to hide.

Agree, too, with Applegateranch's comment on another thread about the genius of Eastwood's use of his object's own "egregious speech pattern," commonly referred to by pseudointellectual "progressives" as a sign of Obama's great intellect and deliberative style.

Images of The Empty Chair and a faded Obama poster on a bedroom wall will become prized exhibits at the Smithsonian years from now.

I heard about how awful Eastwood’s speech was. I just watched it on YouTube. He totally pwnd Obama.
