This reminds me of Clint Eastwoods chair. ....
about the 'chair' speech'...
He was worried that his speech would sound like those of everyone else endorsing Romney Im hearing everyone say the same thing: Oh, this guys a great guy. Great, hes a great guy. Ive got to say something more, Eastwood said.
Thats when the Diamond ballad reached a chorus in which he sings, And no one heard at all / Not even the chair.
A light bulb lit up over Eastwoods head.
He told Esquire:
And Im thinking, Thats Obama. He doesnt go to work. He doesnt go down to Congress and make a deal. What the hells he doing sitting in the White House? If I were in that job, Id get down there and make a deal. Sure, Congress are lazy bastards, but so what? Youre the top guy. Youre the president of the company. Its your responsibility to make sure everybody does well.
So he decided to call out the president. Only the president wasnt available, so he spoke to the chair instead.
