If it's Monday, It Must be 'Empty Chair Day'

By Mr. Curmudgeon:

Are you feeling lucky? Well, are you, punks? Inspired by Clint Eastwood's Republican Convention soliloquy to an empty chair, representing the vacant years of the Obama presidency, many have been inspired to emulate Eastwood by declaring Monday (formally known as Labor Day) "Empty Chair Day."

As you may recall, the action hero of such film classics as "Dirty Harry" and "The Outlaw Josey Wales" used an empty chair as a prop to address our failed president. "We own this country," Eastwood said to the chair, "Politicians are employees of ours ... and when somebody does not do the job, we've got to let them go."

And Eastwood's idea has caught on.

I saw a photo posted on the Internet that shows a lone chair sitting on a front lawn. On it rests a sign that reads, "Labor Day has been cancelled due to lack of jobs. Monday is now Empty Chair Day. Put an empty chair in your front yard. Thank you, Clint, for bringing this to our attention."

On Facebook, a graphic artist took inspiration from Frank Shepard Fairely's iconic 2008 Obama poster, emblazoned with the word "Hope," and substituted a chair where the president's face once beamed ... oh, and the word "Chair."

In yet another contribution, a photo shows an empty chair with an empty suit dangling nearby.

So, go ahead, make Clint's day ... Empty Chair Day.

“Cool. I have an old office chair I could use, but that would look SO tacky.”

Oh, no it wouldn’t.

If Wolf Blitzer an empty chair? What about Chis Matthews?
They may even be empty brains!

I was actually going to post a vanity thread about this. Nice move by AMC...although I wonder if this was planned before Clint's evisceration of Soetoro?

Either way it works for me.

Happy Labor Day to all.

I was going to put out my lawn chair when I saw an old wood chair in our barn. Perfect! I posted the picture on facebook, but I don’t know how to post pictures here.

Obama didn't brew Obama beer! (He just named it!)


Obama didn't win the championship bb game! (Sarah did!)


Obama did not bowl better than the dog! (That he ate!)

That says it all!

Here's and empty chair for Obummer at the Gibson Guitar Plant, in honor of the man who ok'd the raid by Federal agents. Obama, the guitar hater.

Posting pictures:

a. Get a picture hosting account somewhere, like Photobucket, or similar.

b. Copy the URL path of the photo, make sure it's the photo and not the thumbnail

c. Use html code for "img src" in your FR post to direct it to the photo.

piece of cake

Oh, there may be a way to do it from Facebook, but I think the method suggested is more “anonymous”, if you know what I mean and I think you do.
