  1. Better an empty chair than an empty suit. I’m sure that’s been mentioned by others.
    Someone opined a few threads back that Eastwood would have trouble finding future work in Hollywood…rotflmao! The ONLY thing that counts is the ability to fill theatre seats. Clint is Gold in the bank.

  2. BEGIN PASTE
    What I saw last night was a hopelessly out of touch old man alternating between senseless rambling and unbridled rage in a manner that was not just weird but a shocking fall from his previous standing from years ago. It’s so sad what happened to a man of such talent, how he really can’t go on TV anymore. He is no longer insightful but is vituperative and confused. It’s so sad what happened to Chris Matthews.
    Oh the Eastwood speech? I loved it.
    END PASTE

  3. He’s 82, has a movie coming out this week. Numerous Academy awards…I don’t think he’s too worried.

  4. Counting down until the first sand statue of ‘the one’ appears in a chair.
    Three, two, . . .

  5. When we were kids we bought cheap Chekoslovakian 22 shells to whack gophers, every 2nd shell was a dud, you would just eject it onto the ground and continue till a good one came up. Barack has turned into such a dud, empty chair, limp dick whatever, if the Cheks still make shells they should secure the Obama name for them. All Clint did was remind the dullard who might believe the Hollywood/MSM chant to think twice, before voting for this dud again. Speaking of duds, Bill Maher, king of unfunny duds.

  6. I’m too old from my own young kids and too young for grandkids, so I don’t have one, but does anyone have a picture of a highchair?

  7. What a coup! Eastwood was brilliant. He said everything a lot of Americans wanted to hear but were afraid to say.
    And, in such a way that the Leftards would accuse him of being a senile, washed-up, old man. Ha! His empty chair will go down in history!
    The great thing is, Clint Eastwood has charted his own path — always anathema with the progressives — and doesn’t rely on the grovelling, oh-aren’t-you-wonderful, sycophancy of Tinsel Town.
    He lives hundreds of miles away.

  8. “Counting down until the first sand statue of ‘the one’ appears in a chair.”
    Those of us who are less talented could always just dump a couple of yards of sand on a chair, kind of symbolic of an unfocused mess of a preezy of the United Steezy.

  9. Why have just one day ‘Empty chair day’-change the lexicon and have an empty chair become an ‘Obama’ ie-“Take a load off and have an Obama”, or “Michelle,your rear is too big for that Obama. Let me get you a bigger Obama.” Keep this meme going upto the election.

  10. My empty chair is out. Not a lot of people know about this. Let’s “make the progressives day” by making every first Monday of the month empty chair day till the election. It will give more people the opportunity to participate and drive the opposition crazy.

  11. I say we make November 7th Obozo’s permanent empty chair day – as in the one in the Oval Office.

  12. I understand that the US is really getting into the chair thing.. further there’s some suggestion they want to get rid of a brown lazyboy..

  13. Love the teleprompter one, but there are two pictures that have been ‘found’ that are appropos:
    One of Marx and one of Lenin…you guessed it…with empty chairs near them!

  14. And at Power Line (PL), there’s a picture of Churchill looking—grumpily—at a bomb-ruined chair.
    This would be a good contest here, via a PL commenter, “studer2558”:
    [Begin quote] My wife just repeated a joke she saw earlier this morning:
    Q: What’s the difference between Obama and an empty chair?
    A: The empty chair spends all day at the office.
    Could we get a chain started, perhaps? Here’s my contribution:
    Q: What’s the difference between Obama and an empty chair?
    A: The empty chair stands up. [End quote]
    My feeble attempt:
    Q: What’s the difference between Obama and an empty chair?
    A: A chair carries weight.
    Let’s do it!

  15. Politico has great pictures of Empty Chair day. It’s really caught on; that’s great. It means that Americans can mock Obama and don’t feel ‘ashamed to reject him’.
    Eastwood pointed this out – you can vote for him in 2008 and don’t feel bad when you reject him in 2012. YOU are in control, not Obama.

  16. Someone opined a few threads back that Eastwood would have trouble finding future work in Hollywood…rotflmao!
    Eastwood, often derided as dumb, is in fact very shrewd. When he hit it big in the spaghetti westerns, he started his own production firm, the Malpaso Company, which financed all his westerns from Hang ‘Em High to Unforgiven, all the Dirty Harry movies, and everything in between. His sets are known for being no-nonsense; prima donnas aren’t welcome. As a result, his films come in on time and under budget, and they always make money. He doesn’t have to go hat in hand to anyone to make a movie, and he can always find distribution.
    Clint doesn’t have a thing to worry about.
