He is now 82. I hope I can do as well when I am his age.

:iagree: He's been there and done that. He has no apologies needed to be made.

He rocked the house. Great content. Loved the delivery. Glad he did not read it. Leftys will attack him because he's right, and that must be punished. :patriot:

I still can't believe he is 82. His speech really got the crowd going. My husband was in a different room and every time I would laugh I would hear him laughing a few seconds later. I was thinking my spouse was a little slow on the uptake until I realized the station he was watching was on a 2-3 second delay. LOL Really enjoyed that speech.

Don't you love how quickly the lapdogs in the media jumped in to cover for Obama and bashed Eastwood?

GOD forbid anyone mock the fraud in the White House.

I got a lot of laughs from Eastwood's "speech" last night and was impressed with his wit (I watched it again this morning); and though I consider his contribution to have been effective, it appears that the ankle biters in the media are using him to overshadow a very substantive speech from Rubio. Both hit home runs and made me proud, and the media has once again sickened me.

Man, Clint is old! In general, I liked seen him and the comedy routine with Invisible Obama, but understandably he isn't what he used to be...

I wish the people who think 82 is "old" would think about that and think about their grandfather or father taking a "pensioners" nap (well deserved!) in his favorite chair when electing people again and again to polical office.

:thumbs2: Clint was great. I didn't know anything about Rubio, but when I was watching him I was thinking that he should be running for president. Maybe someday. :patriot:

Best line I heard!

"When someone doesn't do their job it's time to let them go"

My thoughts exactly Clint!

Old! The man is like a fine wine! As far as I am concerned the 70-up age group is an untapped resource in this country. Talk to "old" people. Most if still mentally sharp tell me that they feel the same as they did at 30. Sure their older and not as physically strong as they used to be but I am in my early thirties and I am not as strong as I was in my teens. If we all knew what the later generations knew we would probably make a lot less mistakes throughout life.

The elderly are our national treasure! I don't know I was a history major in college so I love talking to the 70+ crowd. They know whats up!
