Obama: No Offense Taken at Eastwood Skit — As President, ‘If You’re Easily Offended, You Should Probably Choose Another Profession’

President Barack Obama said he didn’t take offense at Clint Eastwood’s speech at the Republican National Convention, saying that if you’re president and are “easily offended, you should probably choose another profession.”

The 82-year-old Hollywood legend received mixed reviews for his 12-minute improvisational bit that included him speaking to an empty chair as if Obama were sitting in it. The Obama campaign fired back on Twitter, posting a photo of the president sitting in a chair with the caption, “This seat’s taken.”

But in an interview with USA Today Saturday, Obama insisted he was an Eastwood fan and wasn’t bothered by what he had said.

“He is a great actor, and an even better director,” Obama said. “One thing about being president or running for president — if you’re easily offended, you should probably choose another profession.”

Obama said he didn’t think the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, N.C. would contain a similar sketch.

“I think we’ll be playing this pretty straight,” he said.

      1,211 adults were interviewed statewide 08/31/12, after Romney, Florida’s Marco Rubio and Clint Eastwood spoke to the convention 08/30/12. Of the adults, 1,100 were registered to vote in Florida. Of the registered voters, 754 heard the convention speeches. Of the convention speech watchers:
      * 66% did not change their mind.
      * 16% switched from “undecided” to Romney.
      * 6% switched from Obama to Romney.
      * Adding those 2 together, that’s 22% who switched TO Romney.
      That is a HUGE shift and proves that the combination of Clint Eastwood, Marco Rubio, and Mitt Romney on the last night of the RNC proved decisive in pushing many voters throughout Florida to supporting the Republican ticket in 2012.
      The hysteria of the liberal media to the Eastwood speech is a clear and undeniable sign of just how worried Eastwood’s words would have the very impact on voters that is now taking place. Even far left comedian and HBO political show host Bill Maher admitted Mr. Eastwood “killed it” :
      And David Harsanyi of Human Events also admitted the influence of Eastwood’s performance last week was likely far more positive than negative for the Romney campaign for a number of reasons: LINK

There was more dry humor and less Dirty Harry than I was expecting, but it was a good performance and he’s a great patriot for showing up and sharing his thoughts with us.

I‘m sure he never expected the PUSH BACK from PATRIOTIC Americans that he’s received and will continue to receive.
      I’m sure that he felt we were all red-neck, Bible-hugging, Gun-Loving Americans but all he had to do was offer us “FREE STUFF” (forgetting that WE KNOW WE are the ones paying for ALL OF IT) – loved that in Clint’s speech: YOU OWN IT ALL…and we do.

First off he looked at though he had one cocktail to many, then he turns to an empty chair as though he doing a skit on SNL, speaking to the President of these United States and making a mockery and then motioning with the slitting of his throat. If the shoe was on the other foot the ads would be coming out the next day and Mitt would want an apology. I don’t care what political party your affilication is there has to be some kind of respect held for the President of the United States of America. My best guess is it certainly wasn‘t that night with that skit and I’m sure after Clint Eastwood sobered up he probably thought the same thing.

    What an arrogant a$$ BO is. Can’t help being the center of his own attention. His salute to Neil Armstrong with his hands in his pockets reflecting on a crescent moon almost made me ill.

    OMG 2012

    Watching Eastwood Thursday night was as funny as watching the grandfather from the Simpsons.

      Granpa Simpson has probably had more real jobs, paid more actual taxes, and donated mega lots more charity donations than the dufus in chief. Even tho he’s just a cartoon figure.

      One of the really funny things he said was attorneys don’t make good presidents. Doesn’t that include Mitt.

      GER: Maybe he should have said “ attorneys who had to withdraw their license to practice ” which would have made the Obama reference more clear… ( Know Obama defended ACORN but that is the only case I ever heard about – oh, and aren’t they a great group ?? helped to blow up the housing market and Occupied bankers’ front yards with their bully bullhorns..yeah, just a great group of thugs ! Didn’t they also get prosecuted later for misconduct ? You go, Obama , stellar record there !! )

      @Pennsylvaniapatriot No one has mentioned New Mexico’s governor. She brought down the house.
      Obama is staying away from Clint Eastwood because he is a loved icon, and because he is old and as we all know Obama would never throw an old person over a cliff and because he represents the right to bear arms and because he represents America as it was—those “two antenna” times. Besides he has Bill Maher. And he won’t have a speaker like that, just a gigantic white sand Martin Luther King statue.(fake it till you make it, again).

      GER: “Urban myth ?“ Barack ”surrendered ” his license to avoid charges that he lied on his bar application ( oh, I bet there are some great secrets there ?!) and Michelle “surrendered ” her license to avoid be charged with insurance fraud. Guess that “urban ” you are referring to, must be CHICAGO !

    He said he is going to play it straight. “Play it straight” to him means “lie through his teeth” every time he opens his mouth.

      Are you kidding me. Team Obama is STILL thanking Clint for his rant, and helping him get reelected. Plus I loved the part where Clint thought Obama got us into the afghan/Iraq wars!!!
      In a 3 day convention that was boring at best, Clints 12 minute rumbling was great!!!

    Not true. This has happened to me two days in a row. Looked it up… “Guru Meditation” is a commodore virus from the 80′s. My scans pick up nothing. Is this the Blaze’s idea of a joke or is someone in here not playing nice?
