Did Clint Eastwood Lose The Plot At Romney's Convention?

See I'm thinking it is not nice to make fun of people for things they can't help like color, age or handicap. I would even go so far as to say people who do are not really human in the good sense. You know?

Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter are both funny Republicans, but they mix it with a lot of sarcasm and political commentary.

People laugh with Rush Limbaugh. People laugh at Ann Coulter. I hope she is all self-parody as nobody can say the dumb things she does and hope to be taken seriously.

I'm not so sure about that.

I might be in favor of national healthcare if it required all Democrats to get their heads examined.

Jimmy Kimmel at the White House Press Club Dinner:

The difference between people who watch Bill Maher and Rush Limbaugh is that those who watch Bill Maher know he's as a_shole.

About a month after 9/11 I'm changing channels on the tube and come across some blonde woman saying "All swarthy men should be deported, who needs them anyway, yuck!" I truly believed it was someone stealing the Suzy Sorority of the Silent Majority character from the original Saturday Night Live, I thought it was funny. Then I learned who Coulter was. I still think she's just playing her niche and Idiot America (a nation within a nation) loves it. I saw her on Maher in the past year and the from the chemistry between them I think they know each other well.

I think Dennis Miller changed stripes right quick as a career move, especially after seeing how Maher got nailed. I'll never forget his great display of moral indignation at Reagan's bombing raid on Libya in the '80s.

The political blog burntorangereport.com first talked about the display in the Spicewood Estates area Wednesday night.

The fold-up chair, with an American flag attached to it, was hung from a tree in front of Bud Johnson’s home and some neighbors complained that it was racist.

Yes.

Clint was right!

It is kind of funny that after all the criticism Eastwood got, in the end, he was completely vindicated by the cover of the New Yorker Magazine.
