I was taking a shit when Eastwood was speaking, but it sounded like he lost his mind.

Bathroom acoustics or did he go off the deep end? I swear it sounded like he was insulting Romney at the very end.

Rubio came on during The Wipe (fitting) and he sounded normal...for Rubio, anyway.

What did I miss?

Edit: Ok, found a video, watching now. Here it is, btw:

Like he was literally talking to an empty chair, I get that. Are you saying that he was pretending it was Obama in it?

Oh man, that would be crazy cakes.

He asked a couple of 'tough' questions about why didn't he close Gitmo as if it was a promise Obama broke all by himself in which Obama didn't give him an answer, but then he had Obama telling him to shut up and then saying to Romney to go fuck himself. The audience fell all over themselves with laughter. The camera made sure not to be on Romney when Clint said that.

This is surreal, he's talking to the chair and he's not making sense.

The chair is making more sense and it's not saying anything.

This is freaky.

Several times it sounded like he lost his way and I was sitting there, cocking my head to hear better going "What the fuck is he talking about?"
