Clint Eastwood's heart may have been in the right place, when he accepted the invitation to speak at the Republican National Convention, Thursday (Aug. 30), but his mind was clearly somewhere else. Possibly at home with his daughters telling a story about "the good old days," because from the sounds of it, that's exactly what he thought he was doing.
Rather than firing up the crowd for Mitt Romney's acceptance speech, Eastwood confused and amused all while his chair (holding an invisible President Obama) taunted him in the distance.
The 82-year-old stopped in the middle of his speech several times, and turned to hold an intimate conversation with the chair, eliciting more nervous laughter from the audience. At one point, he slammed Obama for being a lawyer, apparently forgetting that Romney also went to Harvard Law School.
"I never thought it was a good idea for attorneys to be presidents anyway. I think it's maybe time for, maybe a uh, business man, how about that? A stellar business man. Quote on quote 'a stellar businessman,'" Eastwood rambled.
Although he was met with cheers (again, from utter confusion), veteran news anchor Brian Williams was powerless against the looming awkwardness and broke into a short but heartfelt chuckle just before offering commentary on the speech. "I'm reminded that he starred in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, and I think people will find parts of all three to talk about," Williams said.
After that speech one thing is clear: Mr. Eastwood has no idea where he is, or what's going on in America.
Also, he looked pretty sleepy.

Eastwood hit it out of the park. His talking to Obama was great. Obama has some explaining to do.
I thought he was hilarious. Needless to say, there are some sore loser-type liberals who just can't stand the thought that are some conservatives in the Hollywood bunch. I just can't wait for these lefties to gush over the pronouncements of Biden! I'm sure they will be very unbiased. *gag*
You're just pissed that we conservatives have eastwood while you libs are stuck with pee wee herman
Eastwood looks like he won't even live to vote for Romney.Too bad. OTT it was just another lecture by a multimillionaire armchair quarterback. I was glad to hear he was against the war though. Did you know he also is pro choice and pro gay marriage? Pronouncements he made when he was a little more lucid a few months back.
Almost every country in the Middle East is awash in oil, and we have to side with the one that has nothing but joos. Goddamn, that was good thinkin'. Esso posted on 2012-01-13 7:37:56 ET
"I like Clint. I didn't agree with his enforcement, but he put on a good warm up skit for Willard that played better at the convention than anywhere else. I like his films. He's free to like whomever he wants to politically.
There's a big difference in critisizing this mans life, and living it yourself. Lets see you muster over 60yrs of movie and tv entertainment under your belt, and mayor of a city...then, if you live that long, at 82yrs, stand before millions in this world, and give a perfect, flawless speech that everyones going to love...try it, then talk! PISHER!
"A friend will calm you down when you are angry, but a best friend will skip beside you with a baseball bat singing, "someone's gonna get it"
A new NBC/WSJ poll out Tuesday shows President Barack Obama with a four-point lead over presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney. But as is often the case with polls, some of the more interesting numbers were in the details. For example? Romney snagged zero percent of African-American voters. Among key demographics, the poll noted that Obama had a lead over Romney. The most stark being when it came to African Americans: 94 percent to 0 percent. Via NBC: Looking inside the numbers, Obama continues to lead Romney among key parts of his political base, including African Americans (94 percent to 0 percent), Latinos (by a 2-to-1 margin), voters under 35-years-old (52 percent to 41 percent) and women (51 percent to 41 percent). His lead among those groups isn’t surprising, but hard for the number zero not to catch a person’s attention." They just didn't poll enough. There Has to be One Uncle Tom out there.......;}
Yep he's in the whitehouse, he's the kenyan version of Stepin fetchit
It's a lot better when you watch the whole thing, and not an edited version that tries to make an American icon look bad. Good advise that he gives, to not vote for someone that you don't really like. I won't be voting for either Willard or Obama. Thanks Clint!
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Except that there's zero chance that Obama's gonna vote for Mittens....;} So Still lookin'.....;}
Photo tweeted by President Barack Obama with the caption 'This seat's taken.' (Twitter) (August 31, 2012) I expected Obama to ignore this, but his retort to Eastwood was interesting. It looks like he was not amused, but it didn't bother him much.
What no one mentioned was the Cutthroat GEsture. Thinking of Rodney King now and how opposite the two are: One calms. The Other incites.
You're correct...first I've heard it, right here and now.
"We own this country . . . Politicians are employees of ours . . . And when somebody does not do the job, we’ve got to let them go.” –Clint Eastwood" "A friend will calm you down when you are angry, but a best friend will skip beside you with a baseball bat singing, "someone's gonna get it"
I hope he took crybaby Boehner with him!

One calms. Dream on... Yeah, he's a real peacenik. /s Equally phony as mayor VivaLaRaza who he appeared with. Couple of racist crackas! Divisive figures, working to keep hate alive. The ol' divide and conquer technique.

What Eastwoood SHOULD have done was wheel a coat rack out on the stage with a empty suit,and then tell the crowd that Obama wanted to hang around,and address the empty suit. DAYUM! What kind of half-assed consultants are these idiots hiring when I can come up with better ideas?
"It is impossible to talk reason with those who can only parrot Party Slogans." sneakypete Sept 2011 Stay Hungry...Stay Foolish --Steve Jobs Steve Jobs,life-long Dim,and major Barry Soetoro supporter.
Hell,they ELECTED Al Franken to the US Senate,so having Pee Wee for a speaker at the convention is a step towards normalcy for them.

Kinda like what his boy Lenin did in Moscow in 1917,ain't it?

There are more conservative blacks than you might thing,but you never hear the press talking about them. Hell,the only time you hear the media talking about conservative whites is when they are trying to label them as racists.

DAYUM! What kind of half-assed consultants are these idiots hiring when I can come up with better ideas? I've heard the Eastwood asked for the chair at the last minute and unexpectedly. GOP gobbers thought he wanted it to sit on...
It is not easy reconstructing 'molded minds'...
There are more conservative blacks than you might thing,but you never hear the press talking about them. The Point is that NBC/WSJ couldn't find them. Zero 0 %. In a Poll. And There's Always Collaborators/Uncle Toms.
One calms. Dream on... Yeah, he's a real peacenik. /s Equally phony as mayor VivaLaRaza who he appeared with. Couple of racist crackas! Divisive figures, working to keep hate alive. The ol' divide and conquer technique. So you're saying Rodney King is responsible?
And I've still heard/read nothing since....;} You never get the real reason for why people were amazed. Just like when the USSA loses it on the battlefield. ALWAYS minimizing the damage....as long as the Power still sits.
Please describe this cutthroat gesture for me. I didn't see the Eastwood soliloquy.
I didn't either. But I read a transcript. Right before the 'Make My Day' with the Crowd at the end Eastwood draws two fingers across his throat referencing Obama in the 'chair'.
What Clint should've said: "A man's got to know his limitations." Just like Reagan thought he served in WWII.....;}
Okay, thanks. I think I understand better now.
Of course there are. One is sitting in the White House right now,and calling George Soros "Massa".
"It is impossible to talk reason with those who can only parrot Party Slogans." sneakypete Sept 2011 Stay Hungry...Stay Foolish --Steve Jobs Steve Jobs,life-long Dim,and major Barry Soetoro supporter.
Reagan DID serve in WW-2.

In what capacity? I recall he was a captain and was involved in filming/training films? I'm not begrudging his service just trying to remember what he did.
I looked up what my memory missed. I was mostly correct.
Source.
Making movies in Hollywood don't count. Just like John Wayne. And the implication from Reagan in context was that he did something like Guadalcanal. Here's the Sine Quo Non: Would he have qualified for Full VA benefits?
Of course there are. One is sitting in the White House right now,and calling George Soros "Massa". But again you and calcon are missing, Now it's on Purpose, the fact that Zero % of Blacks polled are going to vote Romney.
Yup. He enlisted for the Army Air Corps wanting to be a pilot,but his eyes were too bad for any combat duty,so he made training films.
