Clint Eastwood "not a fan" of President Obama

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - The former mayor of Carmel is "not a fan" of the current president.

Clint Eastwood told Katie Couric during a CBSNews.com interview that President Barack Obama is doing what he can to stay in his job, but that he's not actually "governing."

Eastwood supported Obama's Republican challenger John McCain two years ago, but the politically active actor is no right winger. He backed California Gov. Gray Davis, a Democrat, for example, during the recall campaign that eventually led to Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger being elected.

Privately, Eastwood probably uses some choice words for the evil sonofabitch.

“...[P]ublicly coming out against Obama — less than two weeks before mid-term elections — definitely puts Eastwood in the minority in famously liberal Hollywood.”

I am sure Clint Eastwood really cares about that.

--------------------------

Power has been abused and exploited by Democrats. Forget the polls, forget the media spin. Go to the ballot box and put an end to the Dem Party on November 2, 2010.

The Rats are shovel-ready for the dust bin of history.

I swear I must see an image of Clint Eastwood on the Whitehouse grounds taking potshots at Obama telling him to "Get off my Lawn"!

I recall a few years ago during a National Board of Review awards dinner in New York City, Eastwood said that he would kill Michael Moore if Moore ever showed up at his house with a camera. After the crowd laughed Eastwood said, “I mean it”.

Don’t mess with Dirty Harry.

I love him as an actor, and I like that he's dissing 0bama.

But he's a Democrat. Kind of interesting though. I wonder how many other Hollyweirdos are cursing the ‘0’ under their breaths.

Clint Eastwood was a politician himself long ago, and no doubt has mega-more experience than Obama ever had. We still have no idea whether Obama is legally our leader per the US Constitution, as written.

“Don’t mess with Dirty Harry.”

He is a tough minded and tough spirited guy, to be sure.

Some people have it, some people don’t.

He’s not a Democrat. Eastwood leans more libertarian, and is, by party affiliation, a Republican.

Don’t forget: Eastwood knows a creep when he sees one. He sees a real creep in 0bama.

My mistake. He is indeed a Republican. I did some research and found this! FUNNY!

In January 2005 at National Board of Review awards dinner in New York City, Eastwood stated that he would kill the liberal filmmaker Michael Moore if ever Moore showed up at his home with a camera, probably a reference to Moore's controversial interview with Eastwood's friend, the movie star and Second Amendment advocate Charlton Heston for the movie Bowling for Columbine.

After the crowd laughed, Eastwood said, "I mean it." Moore's spokesman said "Michael laughed along with everyone else, and took Mr. Eastwood's comments in the lighthearted spirit in which they were given." Eastwood has not commented further publicly.

Louis Gossett, Junior and Clint Eastwood join President Reagan at the White House.

Based on his films and overall demeanor in life, I really doubt that Clint Eastwood is a democrat. Did you ever read Clint's comment on Michael Moore?
