Is it true that Sandra Fluke, 30 year old college student at Georgetown U., the one that wants the taxpayer to subsidize her sexual escapades with more than half the student body at Georgetown, will also be speaking to you slugs?

OMG! They just re-aired the Eastwood Debacle on MSNBC. It's worse today than it was yesterday. This was suppose to help Mr. Romney? I think not! Last night was a disaster for Mr. Romney because more people are discussing Mr. Eastwood's speech/presentation than Mr. Romney's speech et al. Whoever his campaign mangers/strategists are should hang their heads in shame. What a mess! What a waste! Next stop, SNL!

You Didn't Build That.....Barack Hussein Obama.

You communist fruitloops need to lighten up. Eastwood is not running for POTUS. That skit will do Romney 0 harm. Now the economy, Obama is going to have a tough time explaining that one.

If I were the DNC I would have Ron Reagan as their mystery speaker. He said this morning that" I was of the mind to watch my fathers tribute on Thursday night, but after listening to Paul Ryan, I changed my mind, realizing that this GOP is NOT my Fathers party, and he would not have any part of this" ...WOW !!!! and you could have him speak with an empty suit next to him.....RONALD REAGAN THAT you bunch of phonies......

Actually this was an audition for the remake of the movie "Harvey". I don't think he'll get the role.

Joe Thomas- Now slowly so you can understand, When you pay premiums to a insurance co through work or

school, there is NO TAX PAYER MONEY INVOLVED !

And Joe by repeating Rush Limbaugh's lies about Ms Fluke, just shows how low you will go!

Just because you repeat a lie over and over again, doesn't make it true, except for Lush's and faux noise fans!

You also know that President Obama never said you didn't build that about business, he was talking infrastructure, you know like the one we could be building up again now, putting many back to work!

I like Client Eastwood as an actor, however he needs to stay in Hollywood, or grow some breast and get blonde wig and become a announcer for Fox News "Fair and Balanced". His rhetoric was as about useful as Romney's rhetoric; "nothing". Not only did he spent his time talking to an empty chair. He provided no ideas why Romney would be a good candidate for president. He talk about his good business sense, however, he did not talk about his record in Massachusetts where job growth was 47th in the country or how people was leaving the state to find jobs or Bain Capital, Ampad, Staples; the Steel industries, or the unemployment and hardship on families caused by Bain Capital, all at Romney's hands. He also left out the fact that Bain Capitol broke the New England bank, that funded his business ventures, which required a taxpayer bailout. Lets not forget the statement how much “Romney loves the USA”, however there's was no mention, why Romney's love for America caused him to keep his money in Swiss bank accounts, which is not accessible for US citizens to borrow and use in this country. Moreover, not only does he keep his money in other countries, and pay less taxes than the ordinary citizen, his questionable good business experience is done in other countries. We also have the fact he has failed to provide his tax returns, which shows a lack of honesty. Client also spoke of Obama's failures, however no mention of Bush's failures, which is the root of most of the rhetoric he was spouting, furthermore, he did not mention how the invasion of Iraq was unfunded and a mistake and 66,000 innocent people were killed, or the Highway of Death, where they were bombing anybody who traveled it, even innocent citizens from other countries and the fact that Iraq is worse now than they were before the invasion. However, there was no mention of Pakistan where six Navy Seals done what Bush supposedly sent thousands to do. He spoke of Afghanistan and how Obama should how learn from Russia, however he said nothing about how the US supplied weapons to Afghanistan during those Russians years or of an incident where a president landing on a aircraft carrier USSAbraham Lincoln stating “Mission Accomplished”. . He also, left out how Halliburton a construction company run by Dick Cheney the Vice President during the Bush era's had spent millions of taxpayer's money rebuilding Iraq and even now most of the construction is still unfinished. He spoke of Gitmo not closing, but not how Gitmo got started. If Obama had actually been sitting in the chair, He could have made really made Client look like an idiot. It is really hard for me to understand this Christian Conservative views, the republicans spout and how they justify nominating a man that has manipulated the facts and his business experience and the fact he is highly recommended by a Mormon church who supposedly uphold christian values. Which does not say much for that establishment. Maybe when Joseph Smith left with the golden tablets, he took the "I shall not lie" commandment with him.

blessing to all; keep up the political debate. that's what nbc news is all about! good night!

Joe Thomas- I notice that you made no comment about Ms Fluke.

Cleaning lady- So which one of the Romney's many homes to do you clean? what's a himmbird?

Are you being obtuse for a reason? You know exactly what was said about Ms Fluke, that she wanted birth control for free, paid 100% by the taxpayer, that she was a slut and a whore!

Spin ACA anyway you want it, we are already paying for all the uninsured, the cut's are savings from fraud and waste, the same cut's that is in the Ryan plan, only they use that savings for another tax cut!

Obama/Biden 2012 forward not back!

Clint just added to the big joke and lies the republican party is full of.

It's the water those GOP's are drinking they are all close to having the same kind of melt down. It's hard when you have nothing to offer makes you kind of wacko. Romney and Ryan now there are two pathological lying peas in a pod. That convention was based on lies, and the media ran with it today. So was the convention a success?

They are like a bunch of amatures, well I guess the tea party is a pretty young party.

If the Republicans want to keep telling the world what Clint Eastwood did or meant to say, that's fine. I doubt that any Democrat leader is going to try and make fun of an 82 year old man who was trying to speak his convictions. I hope not. As far as I'm concerned, Mr. Eastwood did an outstanding job and he finished right on time!

Obama/Biden 2012

Thank god we have 2 smart men avjalable vs. yhr current racist angry hostile dummy to take over the reigns.

you liberal are pathetic, jealous, spiteful loads

keep waiting for your free check, oh its coming

rhopper- I'll have my husband quit his 6figure job, so we can be on the dole!

I'll have to quit volunteering to babysit for nothing, so that our neighbors can save money and keep their home, even though the husband is a Beck fan, he's a trip! Love to talk politics with a faux noise fan, they only know talking points, and blame! LOL

When Obama was elected, I told him as the neighborhood "Liberal" I was sent by Obama to check,count all guns, that there would be a van coming in a few days, to pick-up those guns, we had a good laugh, all except him who got pi$$ed off!

Y'all need a sense of humor!

its over Libtards, the smart leaders have spoken and we all heard it

Stop blaming T Jeff and start hustling

rhopper- Yeah it's all over before the DNC has their convention, but us "libtards" will carry on even though our hearts are broken! LOL!

Remember McCain had a post convention jump in the poll's, and how did that turn out for him and wailing Palin? Ahhhh Ahhhhh oh yeah LOSER"S!

Obama/Biden 2012 forward not back!

Empty chair Eh, I don't need no chair, get off my lawn. Oh, the chairs overdue sit down; Clint needs Medicare more than we think.

But that chair is warm; we know that this is done by sitting and in cold room sit on your hands, too hard then rock back and forth.

Remember in your youth you were sat in empty chair facing the corner, determined not to yield, pouting, but hard chair was uncomfortable to sit in, your legs grew numb, finally in tears begged for forgiveness you were saved. Your grandfather happened to be made know the problem, recognizing the situation was able to slyly explain that growing up need not be so hard. The old fellow took time when the children were attentive; to say that there were only three rules to go by. First rule seemed familiar, by experience; it was to "do what you were asked to do when you are asked", well this was often the point of distress but left open the question of being worthwhile, not as satisfying as fighting. Second rule helped provide an objective for the first rule, "do what you are going to be asked to do, before you are asked". The same request do the same thing can be tedious, but if you make a game of remembering what you are asked do, just to see what if was noticed when it is already done. This rule uses the rational part of the brain to plan for some different outcome. Third rule was to "do what you might be asked to do before it was thought of", this was to engage the powers of observation. The parents a few weeks later became concerned and ask the grandfather what he had told the children, he explained. The father then asked his father why he hadn't had these rules when we was growing up, the grandfather said as parent I didn’t have a clue what I was doing, but I finally learn from my mistakes.

The empty chair metaphor has legs:

George W. Bush was in the empty chair.
The plotters dining on Inaugural day were in the empty chair.
The Republican 111th House was in the empty chair.
The Republican 111th Senate was in the empty chair.
The Supreme Court was in the empty chair.
The Appointments blocked were in the empty chair.
The Tea Party was in the empty chair.
Citizens United was in the empty chair.
The Super Pac was in the empty chair.
The Republican 112th House was in the empty chair.
The Republican 112th Senate was in the empty chair.
The Republican Party was in the empty chair.
The Wall Streets was in the empty chair.

When a good man comes and fills the empty chair, just how many times has the chair been pulled from under him?

Yes there are lots of empty chairs; they used to hold real Americans, today the empty chair sits with its foot in the aisles.

It's hard to believe Clint Eastwood a skilled director and actor really ad-libbed anything let alone remarks that could make or break an election. An empty chair on the stage was staged. The remarks were rehearsed by Eastwood, first to commit to memory and second for timing. The timing being when to introduce these in the scripted publicly approved speech. This is great marketing and less an unscripted ad lib. I'm sure Eastwood discussed the bit with the Romney camp for approval and vetting prior to having a conveniently placed chair on stage. The only risk the Republicans took is nominating Romney, everything else is planned.

Barack Obama had better get his resume refined, he will be unemployed after November and his last four years on the job were hardly remarkable.

I am a Blue Dog Democrat and have only voted for a Republican candidate twice (Reagan in 84, Bush 41 in 1988). Eastwood was funny, the fact that liberals are mocking his performance indicate their desperation. I am voting Romney/Ryan in 2012, at that's pretty telling coming from this ole blue dog.

Damn, Isaac must have delayed the Alzheimer med shipment...

Just what the convention needed, one more senile, white male talking to an imaginary audience...

@TJefferson: Two questions.

Why did you ever paraphrase the separation b/w religion and government as the separation b/w "church and state"?

If you were going to give an Oscar for the best "interview skit", would it go to Clint Eastwood and his interview with a chair, or to Samantha Bee and her interview of actual people at the RNC?

Eastwood is old...we can forgive his ramblings. But why him? To encite the white male, the white supremesists, the klu klux clan? That whole convention was 1 lie after another. They lie so much not all the liars can even remember them all. ( Cantor ) Romney called this country a company. Brewer said president obama enstead of romney, and the only truth told was from rubio who said they wanted more goverment than freedom!
