Kal Penn pokes fun at Clint Eastwood at U.S. Democratic National Convention

Movie legend Eastwood hit headlines after his bizarre performance in Tampa, Florida last Thursday (30Aug12), during which the Dirty Harry star chatted to an invisible Obama about foreign policy and economics, suggesting it was time for the President to be replaced by his party's candidate, Mitt Romney.

His eyebrow-raising antics provided great material for Penn, who is now a member of the leader's White House Office of Public Engagement, and he took the opportunity as one of the main speakers on the first night of the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina to mock the film veteran.

Praising Obama for his successes during his first term in office, the Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle star said, "I've worked on a lot of fun movies, but my favorite job was having a boss who gave the order to take out (terrorist Osama) Bin Laden and who's cool with all of us getting gay married (sic).

"So thank you invisible man in the chair, for that, and for giving my friends access to affordable health insurance and doubling funding for the Pell Grant (government funding for financially-strapped students)."

This is the same Kal Penn that was mugged in DC back in 2010, after leaving the administration (don’t ask me what the Associate Director For Public Engagement is supposed to do, but that was his title). He’s a B-lister at best and most people (even those stoners who do like his movies) aren’t paying attention to him. Maybe he should focus on fixing his career instead of trying to mock an established actor (Eastwood).

Kal seems to have found a way to do that to himself.

I think I’m gonna vote for the guy who hangs out with stoned losers from ‘White Castle’ and ‘American Pie’, because raunchy drug and sex “humor” is more edgy than resurrecting the greatest nation in the history of the world.

a synopsis of his breakthrough movie Harold and Kumar go to White Castle...

Harold Lee and Kumar Patel are two stoners who end up getting the munchies. What they crave the most after seeing a TV advertisement, is a trip to White Castle. So from here, follows a journey for the burgers they require. On their way they will encounter many obstacles including a raccoon, a racist officer, and a horny Neil Patrick Harris.

Having watched it I can confirm it is as bad as it sounds.

Was Neil Patrick Harris horny for the racoon or Harold or Kumar?

Penn, the bisexual, gives a “hole” new meaning to the name Dirty Hairy.

Who is Kal Penn? We all know who Clint Eastwood is, he is the guy that was unafraid to take on Obama.

What kills me is how thoroughly unoriginal leftists are. They must get their emails with the theme of the day from Obama and run with it. Do a Google search on “Eastwood & bizarre” and see how many millions of hits pop up. If the writer uses the term bizarre to describe Clint's speech (or lies to describe Ryan's) it just confirms that they are on the DNC talking points email list. Talk about repeating a lie often enough. The dems have it down to a science.

Kal Penn is bi-sexual? Then what does he have to celebrate?

Same sex marriage or traditional marriage would require him to “deny” have his sexual being. Polygamy is the only answer for someone who feels entitled to “one of each”.

When I saw the headline, I said, “What is a Kal Penn?” Honestly, I have no idea of who this individual is. Furthermore, I have no desire to find out who he is.

LOL! I heard that Obama's stoner boy-toy made a movie once.

I don't know how many REAL movies I have of Clint Eastwood...
