Clint Eastwood

His wife and kids have a show on E!, a Kardashian style show.

Which wife and which set of kids. He has 7 kids from 5 different wifes/girlfriends. If he was poor or working-class the GOP would call him all kinds of terrible ugly names.

Weird and incoherent. Painful to watch. He didn't know where he was going at all. But most of all, tasteless and off-base. Can you ever imagine Barack Obama saying "shut up" or "Go F yourself." Not in a million years. It's beneath Eastwood and I thought better of him. Always respected his views on many issues and his independence. This just shows he's no better than Limbaugh or any of those other half-wits.

There are people who really thought that confused old geezer was hysterical? Curious sense of humor.

It was just sad.

Any Republicans out there want to weigh in on this? Justify it? Run from it? Oh well, I guess it is OK if Obama is President since he is a Kenyan-born, Muslim, Communist, Anti-colonialist. . He is not a "real" American.


I have to agree with this.

He reminded of the crazy old man in the grocery checkout line who just starts going off about something. You feel kind of sorry for him so you try to be polite, but you just can't wait to get out of there.

Senility isn't something to laugh at.

+1 He is really a sob. I have always disliked him personally, though. He's an actor/director. Entertaining and skillful at that, but should just stfu about politics.

I've never understood why, as a country, we're supposed to think more highly of someone's political opinions just because they're an actor or otherwise famous. How does that make their opinion more important or more valid than anyone else's? He doesn't deserve any more than anyone else - he gets one vote just like everyone else. Just because he used to act, I'm supposed to care what he has to say on this issue? I don't think so. (And yes, this goes for the celebrities that either party uses in this way.)

Celebrities are used to attract attention in politics, the same way they're used to hawk purses. Or shoes. Or yogurt.

Although, I agree, it's one thing when Brooke Shields 'endorses' Lazy-Boy furniture, and it's another when Clint Eastwood starts babbling about politics.
