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

You know, during his speech I couldn’t understand why Clint was laboring to speak clearly. I just figured that it was because he is 82 years old. It didn’t dawn on me, until I read your post, that he was mocking Bozo’s brutal speech pattern! That is brilliant, fantastic and hysterical!! Thanks for pointing that out!

SO.... long story short, Eastwood went out and mimicked Obama, and the Lefties thought Eastwood acted like he was demented. Am I right ?

It’s funny how easily embarrassed Dale Jackson is. He’s like a teenage girl who’s on a hair trigger to be embarrassed by her parents. It’s just like him to throw Eastwood under the bus because his performance was a little unconventional.

The Fox snooze panel didn't like it at all. They thought it took away from Romney, both because Clint went long and pushed Romney's time later and because everyone is talking about it and not about what Romney had to say.

Clint Eastwood did more for the Republican party in those few minutes than they have done for themselves in just about any category you can name. The man is a master craftsman and that was just genius having some fun.

Either Fox just missed it when their bias got in the way or they have to quietly criticize the prime time smack down of obama or else.

Gotta toe the line to keep that license? Or were they offended just like Juan Williams?

yes, it was brilliant ...mainly because he was imitating Obama’a own inner anger which so many of the leftists have. really funny way to bring that out!

I had fun watching him but couldn’t forget him being pro-gay marriage, his global warming beliefs, and pro-choice stance. Kinda like Romney I guess so they are a perfect fit.

*President Barack Obama – or at least someone in his camp – tweeted a response to Clint Eastwood’s mocking of him with an interesting, cheeky response. “This chair is taken,” said the tweet that came with a picture of himself in a chair

I look at the "the Chair is taken" picture and get flashbacks of Dukakis in the tank photo...

I think Obama’s pauses are for him to get his feed from Satan.
