Clint Eastwood Speech Crazy or Fantastic ?

Will always be one of the greatest actors, I have ever seen.

His message?

From the heart.

His response?

From the Heart.

Who is we?
Who is he telling that to?

WE = American citizens as opposed to politicians or ruling class!!

Don’t try to twist that into some racial or NWO garbage. If his message didn’t resonate with you that’s too bad but don’t make it something it’s not…..please.

There are many reasons why the Clint Eastwood speech has doomed Obama.

Reason 1 - Eyeballs......Many people tuned in to see Clint Eastwood. He is a true patriot.

Reason 2 - Clint Eastwood was funny. It wasn't some boring Powerpoint demo.

Reason 3 - Everything Clint Eastwood said was true. We do own this country. The

politicians work for us. Obama has failed. When someone does not do the job, you got to

let them go.

It was the most awkward speech I have ever seen in my life, the guy was talking to a CHAIR.

Clint is an ACTOR, why is he speaking at a political convention?

Gosh ! Ronald Reagan was an actor as well and we all know how that went.

Hollywood and Washington have always had such an intense relationship that nowadays it is hard to tell the one from the other. Regarding Eastwood .. well .. he could have only drooled and rambled even more incoherently than he did and the clowns would still have given him standing ovations because the signs told them to.

It's a big farce-cake, and Eastwood was the icing on top.

after research and reading up on Marxism, I have found that the very policies that BHO has incorporated, and is wanting to incorporate into the United States, is based on Marxism. It is not an opinon, it is fact! Marxism in turn leads to communism.... I just want someone who will stand by our Constitution and our rights as Americans, not bow down or be ashamed of being an American, but be proud and lead us as a nation, not as an individual.... I work very hard for my income and I think that every person should have opportunities afforded to them, but not handed to them on a silver platter! Everyone needs help now and then, but get over the hand outs!!!

You know politics nowadays sucks over here. Basicly they gone the same route as the US, where they go on personal attacks (with big media coverage). Politics became way to personal, while it's about the national interest. Not about short term gains and personal faim! But that's it what is is today! Personal faim and short term gain!

And hey in western cowboy movies, they don't talk much. It's action and being cool whatever happens, not talking and talking!

Bingo!

In the movie 2016 it is revealed that both of Obamas parents were Card Carrying Communists.

Obama is a Radical Marxist masquerading as a moderate.

Since his economic policies have failed Obama has been reduced to running a campaign of

Fear & Division.

Yes, we do know how that went.

Interest, inflation and oil prices were reduced to manageable levels, the economy thrived, the cold war ended and Americans regained faith in their country.

Terrible, I know.

Back on topic: I enjoyed Eastwood's speech, through all the flip-flopping Romney is finally on target and is looking like he might be a formidable challenge to our esteemed President's bid for a second term this November.

I got what he was doing but damn, I couldn't get through half of it. He was stumbling all over his words. Painful to watch.

Oh Sonny, I agree. You really found the right words for it. From the heart from a great iconic screen actor who loves America.

For some reason while watching this thing all I could think about was the movie Harvey. I couldn't decide if that made him crazy or hilariously funny in a very subtle dry sort of way.

In parts it was GOOD, in parts it was BAD and in other parts it was UGLY.

But I bet He got paid a Fist Full Of Dollars to do it though.

First time Clint Eastwood made any sense to me at all. I was never a fan, I might have to revise after this. He's old so don't mistake that tremble and stutter in his speech for craziness or stupidity, it's just old age making it harder to improvise...

Thought I would never say this but for Clint Eastwood.

No I would not vote for him to run a thing, but I did like what he was inferring that is all.

We can't go wrong following Clint Eastwood.

- We own this country.

- When someone does not do the job, you got to let him go.

I didn't take him as stupid. That's one thing Clint is NOT. Hell, he probably came up with the chair idea. Pretty good one too imo. He should have had something prepared though.... or used a teleprompter.

Yes, exactly, I'm tired of all the apologizing and the toxic shame coming from so many people who allowed and even facilitated a marxist takeover of our govt. I am tired of people telling me communism is dead when die-hard communists are running our country. I am tired of people telling me that we have to tax everybody to death because the whole world deserves to be taken care of by America. I am tired of the bait and switch by people who know their agenda is not what they pretend to be. The Progressive Income Tax is a tool of communism and I'm tired of being told I'm selfish because I don't accept it. I am tired of the sickly old concepts being shoved at us by these radicals. I'm tired of the way they attack and demonize the very people who defend the Constitution.

Just curious. What has any of that have to do with Clint's speech?

Well ATS ?
I don't know what y'all thought but it was certainly unique!
Some will say he spoke truth. Some may say he was weird.
I don't know how I feel.
When he was featured at the Super bowl I was like yeah! Clint Eastwood !
But now?... I'm just confused.

He reminded me of Christopher Walken in "Batman Returns" who didn't have his speech prepared and just winged it. media.tumblr.com... However he did okay keeping it short and to the point in an inspirational blurb.

Anyway you be the judge

Clint Eastwood at the RNC i.i.com.com...

I think Gov. Sarah Palin said it well.

Welcome to Washington DC - President Mitt Romney -.

Boy, are we glad to see you !
