Join the “Empty Chair Brigade”!
Put an Empty Chair
on Your Front Lawn!
In reaction to Clint Eastwood’s “Invisible Obama,” one of our readers, Foxyladi, suggested this great idea and WTPOTUS are going with it! Put an Empty Chair on your front lawn! The empty chair for the empty suit! No lawn? Put it on your apartment balcony or add one in front of your office building. No chair? Help the economy and buy one! Any old chair will do! Think of the possibilities!
Spread this idea far and wide! Tweet it or twitter it – whatever one does. Add the idea to all the social media networks i.e., Facebook. Send the idea to your Tea Party and blog it everywhere! As she said, “Who needs a political sign when this says it all!” Visualize neighborhood homes all having an empty chair sitting on their lawn! It doesn’t matter what kind of chair it is, just any chair will do. (In some places, you had better anchor that chair!)
As Clint said at the RNC Convention,
“I’m not going to shut up. It’s my turn.”
“I think possibly now it may be time for somebody else to come along and solve the problem.”
“And I think it’s that time. And I think if you just step aside and Mr. Romney can kind of take over.”
Something that I think is very important. It is that, you, we — we own this country. We — we own it. It is not you owning it, and not politicians owning it. Politicians are employees of ours! And when somebody does not do the job, we’ve got to let them go.”
“We do not have to be masochists and vote for somebody that we don’t really even want in office just because they seem to be nice guys or maybe not so nice guys..
May Clint’s “chair” be added to the Smithsonian representing the night the tide turned and We the People took back our United States from the radical Left!
Thank you Clint Eastwood for saying it like it is!
Yes, he started it and the Empty Chair Brigade will finish it! Taking the fight to the Empty Chair – one chair at a time!
Make My Day!
If you have photos of your empty chair, we’ll post them!
Have a happy and safe Labor Day Weekend!

I was just informed that the Dallas Cowboys are playing Thursday night when Clinton is supposed to speak. Let’s see NFL football verses Clinton…where will most guys be? Will the Sports Bars switch over to view Bill? We need a poll! Oh my, isn’t that the same night that the ECOTUS is to speak too? Great planning by the DNC! No wonder they have to bus in all those people. I bet they have to feed them or pay them to be there too.
Is Jimmy Carter going to be there too? Or is just the impeached president going to speak. Isn’t it interesting that a guy that was impeached is the headliner for the DemoncRats? Those rats are just so forgiving of criminals, aren’t they. Birds of a feather…
That will give them the excuse they need to spin away/explain away why the ratings are low and nobody’s watching.

Now THAT’S an empty chair!
Even busing in students and giving out free tickets wasn’t enough. They’re going to downsize the stadium by 2/3. From 74,000-seat Bank of America Stadium to 20,000-set Time Warner Cable arena. Supposedly on account of weather and the safety of the non-existent attendees. Riiiiiiight. Takes the UK to report it, once again: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2198206/Democrats-set-Obamas-big-speech-74-000-seater-outdoor-stadium-20-000-seater-indoor-arena.html
Gosh, I wonder how much money they lost on that deal since they would have to put a deposit down to hold the B of A stadium. They wouldn’t want him to be embarrassed speaking to a bunch of empty chairs – like 54,000! Ha! That is such a hoot! Sure, it is the weather..stormy …overcast…cloudy…thundering…
They’re probably going to wait to see how this trial balloon goes over. If it looks too bad for him, then they’ll try to fill that stadium. Maybe they’ll empty the hospitals, prisons, Guantanamo, and insane asylums.
Dana Loesch just said the funniest thing that I have to share. With regard to Warren and Clinton speaking, paraphrasing:
“The hopes and dreams of the Democrat Party are coming down to a fake Indian and an accused rapist.” Ha! Good one, Dana.
I read this morning that Mooch’s brother and Barry’s sister are going to speak, too. Mooch will open things up. It’s pretty bad when you have to depend upon RELATIVES to say something good about you. What about Mother Robinson? Virginia Goeldner? Cousin Doctor? Sorry, he’s a conservative! Has Hollywood deserted him?
Maybe the deal was cancelled ON Obama because they realized he would not pay . . .
That’s a possibility. They’re not getting the money they expected.
Another delegate refers to Nazis in regard to GOP candidates: http://www.kansas.com/2012/09/04/2474417/kansas-delegates-head-to-nc-for.html
“Lehman said her biggest concern about the election itself is voter-identification laws that Republicans have pushed through in a number of states, including Kansas.
She said the purpose is to suppress the vote, especially among Democratic-leaning constituencies such as elderly voters. And she scorned the Republicans’ contention that the laws are designed to combat voter fraud.
“It’s like Hitler said, if you’re going to tell a lie, tell a big lie, and if you tell it often enough and say it in a loud enough voice, some people are going to believe you,” Lehman said.”
So obviously the obots got the talking points gleaned from the blogosphere complaints about Barry for the past 4 years. How long until they try to link Romney to FMD, communism, and “Reverend” Wright? But thinking of how this woman refers to the Republicans repeating lies. Here’s a whopper of her own:
“The biggest difference from Lehman’s point of view is that Obama, the son of a single working mother, has “empathy for America’s working families.” She said Romney, son of an auto company executive, and his wife, Ann, don’t.”
(1) We have NO CLUE who his mother is, but even if she’s the one he claims,
(2) SAD was not “single” for nearly all of Barry’s life from birth to age 20, and
(3) he grew up in a “royal” environment in Indonesia and in an “elite” environment in Hawaii, where he attended one of the MOST EXPENSIVE prep schools in the entire country, and
(4) he has NO EMPATHY for anyone but himself.
Was this guy already mentioned? Or is he a new one to use the term Nazi? Oh he only used the term “the Big Lie” attributed to Hitler, and Goebbels name – he didn’t say Nazi. So he apologized if anyone was offended! This must be part of their meme if it is getting repeated by several.
Dem Compares Ryan Remarks to Nazi Tactics
September 4, 2012 Snip
The chairman of the California Democratic Party offered a qualified apology after comparing Republican tactics — and specifically Paul Ryan’s convention remarks — to the “big lie” strategy employed by Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels. California Democratic chief John Burton made the remarks Monday in an interview with San Francisco station KCBS while in Charlotte, N.C., for the Democratic National Convention.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/09/03/california-dem-compares-gop-tactics-to-nazi-strategies/
That’s the guy. So he made a qualified apology but San Fran Nana won’t condemn him? http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/09/horrible-pelosi-refuses-to-condemn-dem-leader-who-just-compared-republicans-to-nazis-video/
This is exactly their strategy. Take whatever anyone has said about Barry for the past few years and apply to Ryan/Romney, whether it sticks or not. Whether it’s apt or not. In that way, they think they will diffuse any situation and hide the FACTS about their own guy, because people who don’t know the facts won’t go looking for them, thinking it’s all just a bunch of bluster and campaign rhetoric.
btw, what a freaking airhead that woman is. In addition, who knows better than the DemoncRATS about spending money to put lies in front of the American people? Nancy can start with HER original “big lie” in which she SWORE that Barry is eligible to be potus.
Valerie the Night Stalker!
http://www.buzzfeed.com/bensmith/jarrett-dodges-times-article-reporters-through
She evades the media, after an unflattering story in the NY Times. Will wonders never cease?
““He’s got a real mess in the West Wing,” said one close presidential adviser. “Valerie is effectively the chief of staff, and he knows, but he doesn’t know. She’s almost like Nancy Reagan was with President Reagan, but more powerful.”
…“There is an inherent challenge in managing anyone, this is not particular to Valerie, who is a senior adviser and part of a structure, and also close personally with the family,” said David Axelrod, the president’s chief strategist. “Obviously it’s cleaner and less complicated if everyone is discussing things at the same meetings. But it’s a manageable problem.”
The Times also reported that her colleagues have branded her “the Night Stalker” for her habit of following the First Family home to the West Wing living quarters.
Jarrett’s role has been intensely controversial inside Obama’s circle since she arrived from her Chicago real estate base at Obama’s Chicago headquarters during a low moment in 2007. A true personal friend of the Obamas, her defenders say she keeps them true to themselves and that her internal rivals project on to her dissatisfaction they in fact feel with President Obama’s own decisions. Her critics say she affirms Obama’s worst political instincts and has bobbled the administration’s relationship with the business community.
None of those questions would be explored Tuesday, where Jarrett began her day with a cringe-inducingly on-message performance at Politico’s Playbook Breakfast, where she affirmed that President Obama has “a very strong management style” is “interested in bringing together a diverse group of people” and is exactly the same in private and in public.
“He wakes up every morning thinking about you putting aside the short-term political agenda and really focusing on how to move our country forward,” said Jarrett, who confessed to reading “Playbook” and being a “loyal viewer” of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “He’s focusing on you.””
That IS cringe inducing!
Here’s the link to the NY Times story. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/02/us/politics/valerie-jarrett-is-the-other-power-in-the-west-wing.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all
Dana Loesch says this DNC keynote speaker Julian Castro is the son of a La Raza bigwig and the Dems are grooming him to be governor of Texas and maybe a future potus candidate. His background is just like Barry’s–extremist parents.
Somebody asked recently where Kal Penn is. Well, he’s campaigning for Barry in an ad that celebrates “stoners”. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/president-obama-counts-harold-kumar-latest-web-campaign-ad-article-1.1151246
How peculiar is that for the stalker to go “home” with them every night. I have best friends too, but every night? Who is married to whom?
She’s creepy; they’re creepy. So who’s complaining about it? Mooch or Barry? One or the other because, otherwise, why would the staff give a rat’s patoot except to make fun of them, which of course is a valid enough reason, now that I think about it?!!
Heard that the DNC made two changes to their platform:
Old one said they wanted everyone to live up to his or her “God-given potential”. Well, they took out God.
Old one said they want abortion to be safe, legal, and rare. Current version says they want abortion to be safe, legal, and available regardless of a woman’s ability to pay. In other words, We the People OUGHT TO PAY FOR ABORTIONS FOR THE POOR. Despite that an overwhelming majority of the people oppose taxpayer funded abortions. But they have always been and still are for eugenics. The poor MUST be able to abort, by any means necessary. I’m not joking or exaggerating, either. Sanger, et al. Hillary, too. Her role model.
Now why would we need all those abortions with all the free contraceptives available to anyone who asks? Are people too lazy to acquire them?
Another joke for the week! Here’s what failure looks like Obama – F F F F F F! WTP give you Good Solid F’s! What a blowhard!

Obama: “I Start Getting All Misty” Watching Michelle Speak…
Play Misty for him. She would have been good in the Jessica Walter role. Mooch or Valerie, actually. Either would do.
I forgot to mention that I also saw that they’re rearranging the convention floor to make it smaller so it looks more crowded. Visuals, you know. For the broadcasts.
How far are the DemoncRats going to go with their lies? Check out TX Dem. Rep. Shelia Jackson’s speech to the blacks still on the DemoncRatic plantation. Instilling fear of loss of all those handouts…She and Maxine are two peas in a pod. All they’ve got is a mouth.
“We don’t want to go back to our social and civil rights being denied for promises about our economic rights.” “We realize President Obama is standing with us on economic rights — education, Pell grants which will be cut by the Romney administration, Medicare which will be cut by the Romney administration, unemployment insurance which is necessary for those trying to get a job will be cut by the Romney administration, and investment in infrastructure which will be cut by the Romney administration,” she said.
http://dailycaller.com/2012/09/04/shelia-jackson-lee-warns-rights-would-be-cut-by-romney/
Handouts = “economic rights”? Got it. Amazing. Rights equal entitlements. Communism, folks, in other words.
Here’s the real reason they can’t fill that stadium. DISENFRANCHISEMENT OF THEIR CONSTITUENTS! RACISM!!
http://twitchy.com/2012/09/02/suppression-dnc-charlotte-identification-required-even-just-near-convention-site/
Everyone even NEAR the convention MUST HAVE PHOTO ID.
Let’s see, somewhere I heard have to have a photo id was very racist. Hmm?
Everyone near has to have id. Well, suppose that is to weed out any “enemies or terrorists” from gaining entrance, meaning gotta make sure no conservatives or Republicans get through to “kiss and tell” about the convention . Or should I say “lack of convention”.
ohhh like that one…lack of convention!
Marco Rubio.. short on HOPE!!!!

Clint Eastwood on the empty chair: ‘I may have irritated a lot of the lefties, but I was aiming for people in the middle’
September 7, 2012
The Carmel Pine has scored a post-convention interview with Clint Eastwood. Here are a few key excerpts I found of interest …
Eastwood believes he accomplished his goal — which was to reach regular Americans: “President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people,” Eastwood told The Pine Cone this week. “Romney and Ryan would do a much better job running the country, and that’s what everybody needs to know. I may have irritated a lot of the lefties, but I was aiming for people in the middle.”
And what about the improv act? It seems Eastwood insisted Team Romney not try to script him: “They vet most of the people, but I told them, ‘You can’t do that with me, because I don’t know what I’m going to say,’” Eastwood recalled.
… He also hates using a teleprompter, so it was settled in his mind that when he spoke to the 10,000 people in the convention hall, and the millions more watching on television, he would do it extemporaneously.
“It was supposed to be a contrast with all the scripted speeches, because I’m Joe Citizen,” Eastwood said. “I’m a movie maker, but I have the same feelings as the average guy out there.”
It seems the chair idea was a last-minute decision:
“There was a stool there, and some fella kept asking me if I wanted to sit down,” Eastwood said. “When I saw the stool sitting there, it gave me the idea. I’ll just put the stool out there and I’ll talk to Mr. Obama and ask him why he didn’t keep all of the promises he made to everybody.” He asked a stagehand to take it out to the lectern while he was being announced. “The guy said, ‘You mean you want it at the podium?’ and I said, ‘No, just put it right there next to it.’”
What about the backlash?
Eastwood said people, including reporters, who were shocked by his remarks “are obviously on the left,” and he maintained that, while many Americans didn’t like the way he handled his convention appearance, millions more have something else on their minds.
“A lot of people are realizing they had the wool pulled over their eyes by Obama,” Eastwood said.

This was the original interview that the Daily Caller refers to.
Eastwood says his convention appearance was ‘mission accomplished’
By PAUL MILLER
September 7, 2012 Snip
AFTER A week as topic No. 1 in American politics, former Carmel Mayor Clint Eastwood said the outpouring of criticism from left-wing reporters and liberal politicians after his appearance at the Republican National Convention last Thursday night, followed by an avalanche of support on Twitter and in the blogosphere, is all the proof anybody needs that his 12-minute discourse achieved exactly what he intended it to.
“President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people,” Eastwood told The Pine Cone this week. “Romney and Ryan would do a much better job running the country, and that’s what everybody needs to know. I may have irritated a lot of the lefties, but I was aiming for people in the middle.”
Breaking his silence
For five days after he thrilled or horrified the nation by talking to an empty chair representing Obama on the night Mitt Romney accepted the Republican nomination for president, Eastwood remained silent while pundits and critics debated whether his remarks, and the rambling way he made them, had helped or hurt Romney’s chances of winning in November.
But in a wide-ranging interview with The Pine Cone Tuesday from his home in Pebble Beach, he said he had conveyed the messages he wanted to convey, and that the spontaneous nature of his presentation was intentional, too.
“I had three points I wanted to make,” Eastwood said. “That not everybody in Hollywood is on the left, that Obama has broken a lot of the promises he made when he took office, and that the people should feel free to get rid of any politician who’s not doing a good job. But I didn’t make up my mind exactly what I was going to say until I said it.”
Eastwood’s appearance at the convention came after a personal request from Romney in August, soon after Eastwood endorsed the former Massachusetts governor at a fundraiser in Sun Valley, Idaho. But it was finalized only in the last week before the convention, along with an agreement to build suspense by keeping it secret until the last moment.
http://www.pineconearchive.com/120907-1.html
Is Clint Eastwood referring to Obama’s eligibility when he says, “A lot of people are realizing they had the wool pulled over their eyes by Obama?” Or this one, “President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people?” Did Clint just get him again? Is he going to be our newest champion much like Donald Trump?

That’s true and sad and bad news for us. Barry has this system down pat.
