Clint Eastwood may have something even more valuable to teach us.
He’s a Republican. He’s a conservative. But beyond any of that, he is is own man with his own opinions on each and every subject in which he takes an interest and he doesn’t much give a fig if you disapprove of his position. He doesn’t agree with the text book position of the “real conservatives” on every single issue. And I suspect that, like many of us, he doesn’t pay much attention to what anyone else chooses to define as the “texbook conservative” stance on hundreds of different policy points. He goes where his own beliefs lead him.
The story here about Clint Eastwood has nothing to do with gay marriage. It has to do with the idea that somebody – anybody – can define conservatism for you on each and every issue. There will be disagreements inside the tent on both sides
Well said.
He obviously isn't conservative, and he isn't republican, Clint Eastwood is a libertarian, an anti-conservative.
It tells me more about Romney than Eastwood. Eastwood is a libertarian. For heaven’s sake, look at his lifestyle. On fiscal issues, he is an economic liberal, meaning he believes strongly in capitalism. That Romney chose to showcase him instead of a social conservative told me not to expect too much from Romney even if he won.
His position on this or any single issue is just not enough to bring me to denounce him or any good man or woman.. I haven’t had a sinless season in my lifetime, so I just can’t throw any balls in this game.. :)
So there are no set values? No set rules? Whatever feels right to you?
We have to look at Clint’s life.
As an actor he has been around more Homosexuals than most of the rest of us combined. Hollywood has been a haven for Homo’s for years. Since way back in the silent movie days.
Homosexuals are not bad people they are just sick.You work around them every day and a lot of them become your friends. It is natural that you begin to accept them as friends and look the other way at their sickness.I have homosexual friends, we don’t get into bitter discussion about their illness.We look the other way.
If a person wants to play with anothers waste that is none of my business, when they seek to further their agenda, destroy the act of marriage and get in my face I get angry.
Seeing their romantic interludes and lust on the street on TV and seeing their recruitment Offends me.
