By now, I would think that most everybody has seen excerpts of movie icon, Clint Eastwood's 'empty chair' improvisational bit at the Republican National Convention. I personally thought it to be a sad moment and somewhat tarnished Mr. Eastwood's persona. Perhaps at eighty-two years of age , Clint Eastwood has some underlying issues, which would cause him to engage in such trifling bar room nonsense that diminishes his image. I get it that Eastwood does not like President Barack Obama and I have no quarrel in one holding such an opinion. However, I remain shocked that Eastwood would, on two occasions, place the phrase 'go f*#k yourself,' into the United States President's mouth. Are you kidding me? In prime time television coverage at an event to introduce a newly nominated Presidential candidate, the Nation founded on those Judea-Christian principles offers THIS moment!
Okay, let's assume that Eastwood is losing touch; he is misguided by voices, suffering delusionary thoughts of legendary granduer, early onset of alzheimer or wishes to reinvent himself as a Comedy Central comic; where is the Grand Old Party's acknowledgment and expression of disappointment in such a nasty segment. It is obvious that the Republicans are NOT proud of the incident because the post-convention 'highlight' video does not show any part of the Clint Eastwood demented impro-shtick. The Republican Party is the self-proclaimed 'righteous' right-wing group that warns the American people that cartoon character, Sponge Bob wishes our children to become 'gay' and then ignores a real person implying vulgar language used by our President as they attempt to lift their own 'holier-than-thou' prominence.
Perhaps one needs to define the audience to fully understand what type of entertainment will be more appealing. In an attempt to make this connection, let me remind the reader that several 'white' Republican Convention delegates were removed from the convention floor when they threw peanuts at a 'black' CNN cameraperson and yelled, "This is how we feed animals."
Hail, Hail the Grand Old Party...smaller govenment and 'WHITES ONLY!'...not with my vote.
