Monday is National Empty Chair Day (Woo-Hoo!)

What better way to commemorate the Labor Day holiday than to send a message to the AWOL campaign-in-chief — and support Clint Eastwood, to boot!

Twitchy has the story of the latest Eastwood-inspired social media phenomenon. First, #eastwooding.

Now: #EmptyChairDay.

Tomorrow, Monday, is the day.

Decorate yours any way you want it: Nobama stickers, Romney/Ryan yard signs, golf clubs, mom jeans, etc. Email/tweet us your best entries.

My decoration’s going to be “We own this country!” sign, in tribute to Eastwood’s best line from his speech.

Have fun! You know they’re going to call it racist, anyway.

OK, I just put mine out and I have to say I am a little nervous. I doubt that anyone that isn’t familiar with Eastwood’s presentation would even understand the implication of the empty chair but I don’t want someone picking it up and throwing it through my front window.

“You can make one to hang in your car.”

I reassured my husband I wouldn’t do that. Our car is only a year old and I’m on a university campus twice a week. I don’t want it keyed. The student Democrats were absolutely rabid in 2008. I’m not concerned about an empty, plastic chair in my lawn. A lot of people already have those.

I understand.

I only do these things when driving. I take down stickers and such when parked.

I’m going to do this too!

LOL, I live in a very republican area (thank the Good Lord for that), we actually have a Ron Paul die-hard up the street from us.

Now, I enjoy a good location on the corner, I want to put out the chair with a sign.

What should my sign say?

Fire Obama?

Vote Romney?

Hire Romney/Ryan?

Put them together?

Fire Obama/Hire Romeny Ryan, the turnaround team?

All suggestions are welcome!

I can see it coming...

All empty chairs in the future, will be declared a symbol of racism.
