It's the partisans and talking heads that can't seem to figure out how to deal with what he did. You can hear their muscles strain and ligaments snap even from the comfort of your own home.
Very entertaining...

Talking to a chair?
Couldn't they have trotted out Bobby Jindal? Someone sharper than Clint? Hell, even Sarah Palin would have made more sense than that claptrap speech of Clint's.

Obamas policies have clearly failed. Everyone can see it. Socialism doesn't work.
Obama lied by omission. He failed to inform us he intended to wrap a wet blanket
around Free Market Capitalism.

Please source your claim that Eastwood voted for Obama in 2008. Also, he public ally stated he was opposed to corporate and auto bailouts months before he did that Super Bowl halftime commercial. He's an actor... Sometimes actors take roles that don't reflect their own beliefs. Last night we saw Clint Eastwood as Clint Eastwood, not him playing some role.

Personally, I think Mr. Eastwood's presentation was dead on. Given his age he seemed to stumble a bit for the words, but I think he was dead on right.

I thought it was brilliant, witty, and original. And no teleprompter.
You can only hate Clint if you are a leftist. But what are we to do....as some here have been known to say....haters always gonna hate
