They are so intoxicated and needful they quite often "self medicate" on their own concoctions. To them, ANYTHING that is NOT tainted with right wing fiction is considered to be "left leaning". You think I'm joking, kidding or exaggerating? NO Sir, I see and live with that reality far too often. I shouldn't "have to" point out this isn't a reference to "all" Republicans but it is a condemnation of the ultra conservative factions that have financed, seeded and orchestrated the propagation of such "zombies" over the past 25 years for the purpose of garnering votes.

While I think Snopes is a decent reference, I am also in sympathy with the goals of the "Tea Party" as outlined in their websites: "Personal Freedom, Economic Freedom, and a debt free future". There are certainly crazys who claim to be "tea partiers". There are also crazys who claim to be Democrats. Some of these are even in Congress. I submit that the majority of "zombies" in our society today are those addicted to public handouts over the years by the Democrats.

There's enough doubt surrounding the story for me to not believe it's from C.E. However, the content is interesting.

I expect the part about Obama was added in by someone other than Eastwood, although his dislike of the President is known.


Clint is not known for going public with statements like that. One minute he's talking about his twilight years, and the next about guns and Obama. Nice try.

If it matches your political, religious, moral, economic, etc., etc., etc., stance it must be true!

My post was not intended to depict a factual event; rather, I found it interesting and perhaps a good subject to bring up and stimulate some light chit-chat... and so it did! As far as SNOPES, there are many Internet sites that also discredit its "fact checking" and truthfulness. Who do you believe?


Bull, you bought it hook line and sinker, you gave it no thought and liked the way it sounded and passed it on.

If Eastwood had said this publicly, or even alluded to it, it would have been all over the news, internet, and all other media.

I kinda remember an empty chair thing he did last election. Went over big with a lot of conservatives, not so well with liberals. But whats new about that?

Clint Eastwood at 84, director of "American Sniper" # 1 war film of all times; his latest masterpiece is upsetting Hollywood Liberals, as it sets box office records. A true patriot, he never misses a chance to stand up for America and those who defend her. An outcast in Hollywood, loved by those who love freedom, despised by Hollywood and America's liberal Elite. He never stops.

PLEASE READ HIS MESSAGE

My Twilight Years -

As I enjoy my twilight years, I am often struck by the inevitability that the party must end.

There will be a clear, cold morning when there isn't any
"more."

No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate
together, no more phone calls just to chat.

It seems to me that one of the important things to do before that morning comes, is to let every one of your family and friends know that you care for them by finding simple ways to let them know your heartfelt beliefs and the guiding principles of your life so they can always say, "He was my friend, and I know where he stood."

So, just in case I'm gone tomorrow, please know this:

I voted against that incompetent, lying, flip-flopping, insincere,
double-talking, radical socialist, terrorist excusing, bleeding heart, narcissistic, scientific and economic moron currently in the White House!

Participating in a gun buy-back program because you think that criminals have too many guns is like having yourself castrated because you think your neighbors have too many kids.

Regards,
Clint

Make my day—Pass it
on!

Yep. He is an idiot. Like some others who have spent their lifetime playing the tough guy cop, he thinks its real life. If that quote is about Obama, Eastwood is an ignorant idiot.

Not the biggest Obama fan, either, but it seems that were he SUCH a moron, and SO ineffectual, that the GOP would have found it child's play to trounce him in 2012. Did I miss something, or is he still in office? I'll vote for a Republican whom I think is honest, intelligent, good for the country, and not beholden to the fringes of the party. Still waiting.
