Prof – Seems that there is an effort to make Monday “empty chair day”
Below is an image of my front lawn, just mowed, to ensure the emptychair looks right. The sign next to the chair says: “We own this country . . . Politicians are employees of ours . . . And when somebody does not do the job, we’ve got to let them go.” –Clint Eastwood
The huge cultural divide is reflected in the photo above contrasted with this NY Daily News article and photo about “Eastwooding” by New Yorkers who think the joke was on Eastwood:

Who knew an empty chair could expose so much.
Send me your “empty chair” photos on Monday, and I’ll run them.
The Twitter hashtag is #EmptyChairDay
Don’t they have anything better to do?
Aww .. thank you, dear TOL. Say me a prayer. Just routinely bent over to pick up something yesterday, and BOOM .. I’ve been in agony since, hobbled over since in such awful back pain. Sitting or lying down feels ok .. but it nearly makes me faint to get up and move. Thank God I found an Rx for hydrocodone from 5 yr old knee surgery and took one a couple of hours ago .. almost magic. Dang, dang, dang ....
It is .. get you an old chair and Clint’s words .. you did great on that!
Hey Potlatch. I didn’t see that was you. How you doin’?
Remember me?
Do it! Isn’t amazing how unintended consequences arise??
(our Angel in the whirlwind .. ;)
Stune those beebers!!! LOL ..
Amen! WOO HOO!
“The sign says “Pray for Obama”, but it’s the scripture quoted below those words that is raising eyebrows: Psalms 109:8.
Psalms 109:8 reads, “Let his days be few, and let another take his office.”
EStaBLISH the Obama BRAND as an EMPTY CHAIR.
Hi lady, of course I remember you!! I haven’t posted much, lots of family and stuff going on, lol.
Not sure I understood what you meant by; “Don’t they have anything better to do?” in your previous reply.
Hope your weekend is going great.
Be sure to post pics here and to that #EmptyChairDay twitter.
Yes, and they wouldn’t take it as he meant it and had to root out all the dire stuff beyond Psalms 109:8.
The CIA investigation of a billboard.
Ten-four on the family stuff.

Ahh, I see. Haven’t heard more after he gave in and said he was going to change the message. It irked me that he gave in so easily but he has family to consider I guess. I’ll ping you if I hear more. Nice seeing you!
Yes! You could condense it to the pithy end starting with “Whether” .. ;)
Will do! :)
Monday Is Empty Chair Day
Inspired by Clint Eastwood’s unforgettable RNC skit, Twitter
users are organizing a nationwide Empty Chair Day on Monday to pay tribute to the Absentee-In-Chief:
Oh dear! That’s terrible! Are you able to get to the doctor’s? I hope that you have someone to look after you as you get better.
I had back problems all my life, but they were minor compared to that kind of pain, and I never had to take pain meds.
Then I found out that they were caused by food allergies, of all things, and when I eliminated the foods, that cured me.
So I’m not much help on the “my experience” score with your troubles. Sorry.
Get well soon, dear one.
