Egads! Three times the fun.
Obama: Endorsed by Hugo Chavez
Romney: Endorsed by Clint Eastwood
“A man’s gotta know his limitations”
Obama should recognize his and come to the conclusion that he is a failed president and needs to step down.
He declares it after the car blows up! LOL
Wrong.
Clint lived far above the glitter of Hollywood - on all levels - because he was a 'real' person and never became part of the glitterati.
He lived far away from Hollywood - in Carmel-By-The-Sea for many years - even served as mayor. He sent his kids to a small Catholic school. Quietly helped out many people in many ways - things YOU and most everyone else never heard or knew about.
He also helped out the community - for one example: there is a beautiful old monastery in Carmel. Spanish architecture - long green lawns and gardens. Developers were going to buy it, tear it down and build - well, you get the drfit. The town wasn't going to stop it.
So Clint bought it and deeded it in such a way as it would remain a monastery -
I could tell you much more about Clint - the REAL person - (Carmel was a small town - @4,000. I lived there.) But I won't take the time.
Just to say - maybe some people shouldn't judge people they don't know?
"Get off my country!"
Post of the day!
I feel good in the company of people who love their country - I don't have that feeling when the Obama's are mentioned.........
Better to be endorsed by Dirty Harry than Dingy Harry.
Yep - now there's a bunch on FR who will never watch another eastwood movie because they don't have the gonads to make the distinction...
Good one.
No, not at all, but you have to admit that after the Super Bowl commercial that had the Dems drooling because they thought it was a pro-Obama commercial, now this. I think it’s funny.
My comment only relates to the power of celebrity. The other side of Clint is inconsequential to the fact that celebrity endorsements tend to mean a lot to the masses. I am certain Clint is all that and a piece of butter, but for most people he is Dirty Harry, etc.
Good for Clint, he proves he loves America and realizes how bad it will be to have Obama for a second term.
