Monday – Empty Chair Day
Legal Insurrection ^ | 8-31-12 | William Jacobson

Posted on 09/01/2012 9:24:10 PM PDT by STARWISE

That’s what reader Sandy writes:

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:

(video here, did not embed because autorun)

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

Are we welcome to “steal” some of those for reposting elsewhere?

Just operative to cast the word, present the ridicule to the unaware. ;)

I really wish FR had a “like” button.

I dragged a cracked (broken) dark green resin chair to my front yard for
my back porch. DH pointed out that trash pick up isn’t til Friday. I explained that MY “Eastwood” chair represents the “broken empty promises, and failed “green”’pandering” of Dear Leader. I was on quite a roll...as thunderstorms are predicted today and tomorrow—I think my “sign” may have to be laminated.

Malkin and Breitbart have picked up the idea.

Star, someone around here did a marvelous graphic on the eCOTUS, complete with a seal and chair. Do you remember who it is?
