Clint Eastwood at the RNC convention

I thought Clint Eastwood's speech at the RNC Convention in Tampa, Florida was entertaining - I know the democrats didn't like his speech - it is what it is... I really liked Eastwood talking to an empty chair - empty chair I suppose you could make the comparison that Barack Obama is an empty suit.

Clint Eastwood speaks out on Super Bowl ad

Here is the commercial that has set off a fire storm. If Chrysler is broke and owes the federal government 2 billion dollars why are they cutting 40 million dollar commercials.

LOS ANGELES, Feb 6 (TheWrap.com) - Speaking to Ron Mitchell, a producer at Fox News Channel's "The O'Reilly Factor," Eastwood asserted, "I am certainly not politically affiliated with Mr. Obama. It was meant to be a message ... just about job growth and the spirit of America. I think all politicians will agree with it."

Eastwood, who served as mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, in the 1980s, added that he is "not supporting any politician at this time" but noted that, if Obama or any other politician "want to run with the spirit of that ad, go for it."

In the ad -- dubbed "Halftime in America" -- Eastwood extols the resiliency of the American spirit -- as exemplified by the auto industry's efforts to bounce back from its financial woes.
