Eastwood: Every Which Way But Obama

In what could be another “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly”, one of Hollywood’s most respected actors and directors of our time, officially endorsed presidential hopeful Mitt Romney at a fundraiser near Sun Valley, Idaho on Friday.

Eastwood has always been open about being a Republican and in 1968, attended President Nixon’s landslide victory celebrations along with fellow actors, John Wayne, Charlton Heston and Glen Ford.

The errand boy sent by grocery clerks’ turned 51 today.  I’m fairly certain that he feels insulted that all he got from the Republicans was a defiant cake sent to him with the words, “Happy Birthday Mr. President.  You didn’t bake this.”

'We do know that hard working, smart entrepreneurs across the country join us in wishing the president a happy birthday and hoping that next year he has more time for baking so the country can get back to job creating,” RNC spokesman Tim Miller told Yahoo News.

The cherry on top was Eastwood’s endorsement saying, "He's going to restore a decent tax system that we need badly so that there is fairness and people are not pitted against one another of whose paying taxes and who isn't.  Also we don't want anybody taking away the Olympic medals, tax wise, from the Olympic athletes. The government is talking about getting a couple of nickels."

I don’t think we have to worry about Eastwood’s career being jeopardized over the endorsement.  If the Progs get anywhere near him he’ll simply say, “Get off my lawn.”
