For the life of me, I cannot figure out why everyone thinks Clint's presentation was marred by what they perceive to be an age infirmity.

Everyone???
Yes if you referring to the MSM/DEMS (but I repeat myself ) that IMMEDIATELY attacked Eastwood's delivery as indicative of an age infirmary. Remember the adage one only receives much flack when over target.

The MSM/DEMS desperately have to misdirect the viewing/reading audience from the subject of Clint's message. The MSM presented ridicule, scorn, indignation accomplishes that intention of misdirection.

Heaven forbid that the audience ruminate on the concept, the realization that Obama isn't doing the job and has to be let go.

Most everyone. Even here, I've seen FReepers call the performance painful and doddering.

Maybe I'm just not accounting for the cultural gap caused by the age differences. Folks my age and older [like Clint] INSTANTLY recognize Jimmy Stewart's style.

It's a lot like someone saying the word 'Satchmo'. How many younger people know they're talking about Louis Armstrong?

Because certain concepts were common then doesn't mean they're common now. Maybe I just don't always consider that.
