Where’s Clint Eastwood’s Famous RNC Chair Now?

Clint Eastwoods RNC Chair Now Sits in Reince Priebus Office

Actor Clint Eastwood speaks to an empty chair while addressing delegates during the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., on Thursday, Aug. 30, 2012. (AP)

The chair that transfixed a convention has a new home: the chairman’s office.

The empty chair Clint Eastwood famously carried on a conversation with last summer during the Republican National Convention now sits as a piece of political memorabilia in RNC Chairman Reince Priebus’ Washington office, according to CNN:

The chairman of the Republican National Committee gets the joke. It’s the first thing he points out to a reporter before sitting down behind his desk to discuss how his party must dramatically rethink its strategy and message in hopes of recovering from the presidential drubbing of 2012.

Here’s a photo of the chair as it stands now:

In a world of high information voters, that was just too much information to handle? We should make a web site, who saw the chair act, and wish they had listened?

The empty chair is next to the empty suit who was just coronated the other day.

Do you all realize that little prank probably cost Romney about a half million votes? Think it was worth it?

  I doubt it! What cost Romney the election was not speaking the truth about the constitution. Our form of government is the closest thing to God breathed we are going to get here on this earth. It’s about time the Republican party figure that out and start defending her!! There should be consequences to breaking the law of the constitution. Starting with the so called executive orders. We live in a representative republic not a dictatorship or monarchy. Another thing would be to bring charges against the leaders of congress for not passing a budget. This is a travesty that needs to be addressed!

…in the Smithsonian where it belongs.
Right next to Archie Bunkers chair.
A better example of Obama’s effect on America would be an empty suit on a hanger.

How do we know it’s the real One? Did Clint sign it in invisible ink?

  If it’s not, the dimwit party got a hold of it and burned it at the alter of the almighty Obummer.

I wonder if Dukakis’ tank commander helmet is in Wasserman_Schultz’s office?

What would it matter? Even if That Guy was sitting in it , it would still be an empty chair.

  It serves as a reminder of the failures of our political leaders. That is all that matters.
