Empty Chair Day 2012

PPPS (Littleton) —In response to that puzzling performance by Clint Eastwood at the Republican National Convention last Thursday, those Tea Party radicals and other malcontents have declared today to be National Empty Chair Day. And although we don't condone such spontaneous celebrations on what would otherwise be a day to honor our union friends, we thought we would post this picture sent in by one of our loyal readers, Citizen Pete.

In the interest of full disclosure, we thought we would include the speech by Mr. Eastwood. We in the press don't normally cover, comment on, or encourage political speech or opinions expressed by Hollywood celebrities, but because this was apparently condoned by the GOP, we have included it. Draw your own conclusions.

 

And we certainly want to emphasize that we DO NOT CONDONE the antics of those misfits at Misfit Politics who produced this sophomoric response video. Please do not click on it to watch. It would only encourage them.
