Make my Orangutan, High Plains Drifter!

Whatever your political affiliation, you have to admit that Mr. Eastwood gave us one of the most bizarre pieces of political theater in American history.

Although there are at least two regular contributors on this board who probably saw Obama sitting in that chair...

Anyway, the guy who signed off on giving an 82-year old man 10 minutes of un-vetted podium access in Prime Time probably didn't sleep too well last night.

Or as someone else noted, the chair won the debate.

Clint was chastising Obama over things which Republicans believe in such having terrorists at Camp Guantanamo, engaging in war, etc... The audience ate it up because he was criticizing Obama and they knew full well he probably wouldn't be around to criticize Mitt Romney in 2016.

"Repay the debt? What, we can't just.... we've got 100 million people on food stamps and public housing and more immigrants coming everyday to get the same. Where will they go?"

Clint looks with a questioning face? OUT!
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.
