    The left is flossing cracks with their panties over this because Eastwood broke the Hollyweird code and stepped off the island.
    It was DAMN FUNNY and long overdue.

    However, Dirty Harry better watch what he eats for a while. The comedian/impersonator known as Steve Bridges, who has done parodies of Clinton and Bush, wound up like Andrew Breitbart after doing some great comedy routines as "Barack 0bama".

    There have been others who have done the same, Dana Carvey, Will Farrell, Darryl Hammond, but Bridges had 0bozo down to a science and it was widely known that the usurper was infuriated by his acts. GWB embraced the humor and even had Bridges accompany him side-by-side on stage for a WH press correspondents dinner. It was pretty funny, but here's one of his 0bozo routines from 2010. RIP ~ Steve.

    Clint Eastwood was funny . . . Especially when he said attorneys shouldn't be in the White House.

    And by saying that, he basically said that Romney should NOT be President.

    Apparently he didn't know that Romney himself is an attorney.

    Doddering old Mr. Eastwood just underscored the fact that the Repugnant Ones are only right when they misspeak.

    Is that ironic and perfectly appropriate, or what?

    Romney passed the Michigan bar exam, but he has never practiced law, so he's never been an attorney.

    And, you, Turbo, are the marquis of misspeak.

    Bull Sh*t.

    Anyone who goes to law school and passes the bar exam IS an attorney.

    Of course, Shifty Saint Mitt, the coddled son of the rich and powerful George Romney, always had plenty of money and therefore never felt the need to actually WORK as an attorney, but he is an attorney nevertheless.

    And it's sooooo fitting that Clint Eastwood at the Republican Convention essentially declared Romney UNFIT to be the President of the United States.

    Good Job Mr. Eastwood !!

    Truer words were never spoken.

    Romney may very well have grown up taking advantage of his dad's fortune, but once he was away from his parents, he made his own fortune. The money that his dad left Mitt when he died was all given to charity. The business he built, the money he made all came from his own initiative.

    And once he was out of his parent's house, he didn't have plenty of money. He worked hard, built a business and made his own fortune.

    No, no, no! Anyone who goes to law school and passes the bar exam belongs to the bar, but only practicing law makes them an attorney. Lots of people go to law school, pass the bar and never practice law. They're not lawyers unless they practice law any more than someone with a realtor's license is a realtor if they never sell a piece of realty or someone with a commercial driver's license is a truck driver if they never drive a truck.

    Liberals are desperate to find something scandalous about Mitt Romney that they'll latch onto anything that the Øbama campaign throws out there. You are so jealous of success that you're willing to grasp at straws.

    Sure he gave away his inheritance. Who did he give it to? The LDS Church?

    The Church that butts it way into national, state, and local politics to support Right Wing Nut Job causes? Does that qualify as a "Charity" in your mind?

    And no, you don't have to be currently practicing law to be an attorney.

    And a realtor IS a realtor if he has passed the necessary exams and jumped through the necessary hoops.

    And a Medical Doctor IS a medical doctor if he went through med school and passed his residency. He doesn't have to be working as a doctor.

    And a Pilot is a pilot if he learned to fly a plane and received his license to fly.

    And Loopy Old Clint Eastwood DID effectively denounce Romney as being UNFIT to hold the office of President . . . in front of a national TV audience of 50 million plus!

    How PERFECT is that?

    I LOVED it.

    Regarding Bain Capital, how do you feel about the fact that it was started in part with Blood Money (possibly associated with the illegal drug trade) from Salvadoran Plutocrats?

    Clint was funny, very clever, and in the process put both Obama and Biden in their place and made both of them look as bad as they are. Liberals are trying to make Clint look the fool because of his speech saying he's losing it and I don't blame them because it was Clint that made them look like fools, they have to do something since Clint hit everything right on the head.

    Well, Romney is an attorney, and old doddery Clint Eastwood basically said that attorneys should NOT be in the White House.

    In other words, he indicated that Romney should NOT be president, and he said that in front of a national TV audience of over 50 million people.

    At best, it shows how confused the Latter Day Republicans and its leader really are.

    Yes, the rambling Ram Rod, old Rowdy Yates, made Romney look bad.

    And the funny thing is . . . Most Right Wingers are too dumb to realize it.

    Romney may have a law degree but he's a business man and a very successful business man too.
    Obama is a failure who was elected by people too ignorant to see he had no experience and has proved without a doubt he's unable to do the job. Making excuses and blaming everything on someone or something is pitiful, dividing the country is despicable, lying to America is disgraceful.
    Being a sheep and dumb enough to vote for the liar again is inexcusable.

    Yeah . . . Romney is a successful businessman who made a Great living ripping off the American middle class,.

    ". Everyone knows that he is fantastically rich, having scored great success, the legend goes, as a "turnaround specialist," a shrewd financial operator who revived moribund companies as a high-priced consultant for a storied Wall Street private equity firm. But what most voters don't know is the way Mitt Romney actually made his fortune: by borrowing vast sums of money that other people were forced to pay back. This is the plain, stark reality that has somehow eluded America's top political journalists for two consecutive presidential campaigns: Mitt Romney is one of the greatest and most irresponsible debt creators of all time. In the past few decades, in fact, Romney has piled more debt onto more unsuspecting companies, written more gigantic checks that other people have to cover, than perhaps all but a handful of people on planet Earth.

    By making debt the centerpiece of his campaign, Romney was making a calculated bluff of historic dimensions – placing a massive all-in bet on the rank incompetence of the American press corps.

The result has been a brilliant comedy: A man makes a $250 million fortune loading up companies with debt and then extracting million-dollar fees from those same companies, in exchange for the generous service of telling them who needs to be fired in order to finance the debt payments he saddled them with in the first place. That same man then runs for president riding an image of children roasting on flames of debt, choosing as his running mate perhaps the only politician in America more pompous and self-righteous on the subject of the evils of borrowed money than the candidate himself. If Romney pulls off this whopper, you'll have to tip your hat to him: No one in history has ever successfully run for president riding this big of a lie. It's almost enough to make you think he really is qualified for the White House.

    Obama, in contrast, is a successful President of the United States who saved this nation from a Great Depression while simultaneously fighting off the traitorous treachery of Right Wing Nut Jobs intent on seeing this nation fail during the Obama Presidency.

    Thank God for the wisdom, the patriotism, and the drive of President Obama and the Democrats!


    It makes me PROUD to be an American.

    I knew they had both lost their law license, but I didn't know why until I read this.

    This is 100% legit. I check it out at www.iardc.org/ Stands for Illinois Attorney Registration And Disciplinary Committee. It's the official arm of lawyer discipline in Illinois ; and they are very strict. (Talk about irony.) Even I, at the advanced age of almost 65, maintain (at the cost of approximately $600/year) my law license that I worked so hard and long to earn.

    Former Constitutional Law Lecturer and U.S. President Makes Up Constitutional Quotes During State Of The Union (SOTU) Address.

    Consider this:

    1. President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is no longer a "lawyer". He surrendered his license back in 2008 in order to escape charges he lied on his bar application. A "Voluntary Surrender" is not something where you decide "Gee, a license is not really something I need anymore, is it?" and forget to renew your license. No, a "Voluntary Surrender" is something you do when you've been accused of something, and you 'voluntarily surrender" your license five seconds before the state suspends you.

    2 Michelle Obama "voluntarily surrendered" her law license in 1993. after a Federal Judge gave her the choice between surrendering her license or standing trial for Insurance fraud!

    3. Facts.Source: jdlong.wordpress.com/2009/05/...

    4. A senior lecturer is one thing, a fully ranked law professor is another. Barack Obama was NOT a Constitutional Law Professor at the University of Chicago .

    5. The University of Chicago released a statement in March 2008 saying Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) "served as a professor" in the law school-but that is a title Obama, who taught courses there part-time, never held, a spokesman for the school confirmed in 2008.

    6. "He did not hold the title of Professor of Law," said Marsha Ferziger Nagorsky, an Assistant Dean for Communications and Lecturer in Law at the University of Chicago School of Law.

    Source: blogs.suntimes.com/sweet/2008... ;

    7. The former Constitutional Senior Lecturer (Obama) cited the U.S. Constitution the other night during his State of the Union Address. Unfortunately, the quote he cited was from the Declaration of Independence ... not the Constitution.

    8. The B-Cast posted the video: www.breitbart.tv/did-obama-co...

    9. Free Republic : In the State of the Union Address, President Obama said: "We find unity in our incredible diversity, drawing on the promise enshrined in our Constitution: the notion that we are all created equal.

    10. Um, wrong citing, wrong founding document there Champ, I mean Mr. President. By the way, the promises are not a notion, our founders named them unalienable rights. The document is our Declaration of Independence and it reads:

    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

    11. And this is the same guy who lectured the Supreme Court moments later in the same speech?

    When you are a phony it's hard to keep facts straight.
