I never thought I’d agree with Maher on anything. I don’t understand all the crap being put out there about Eastwood’s performance. It took me all of about 20 seconds to conclude he was playing it like a scene from “Harvey” (the one-man play with Jimmy Stewart and an imaginary rabbit) and using/imitating Jimmy Stewart’s speaking style.

I was watching it on TV (which kept skipping on sound and video) and then tried watching it on the Internet(CSPAN) (which kept skipping on sound and video). It wasn't until later when I could watch uploaded videos of it that I got the 'shtick'

I thought of Jimmy Stewart in Harvey immediately.

Do you remember Jimmy Stewart on Johnny Carson's send off show and his poem My Dog Named Beau?

Classic Jimmy Stewart at his best. Miss both of those stars.

It sounded like he was imitating Obama’s speaking style when he doesn't have a teleprompter.

Eastwood is 82 what is Obama’s excuse.

It took me a little bit longer. About half way through, when he was talking about bringing the troops back home tomorrow, and said: “We’ll have to have a little chat about that,” it occurred to me - Wow, he’s doing Jimmy Stewart.
