Jon Stewart: The Old Man and the Seat & Deconstructing Romney’s Speech

Old man and the SeatJon Stewart talks about Clint Eastwood’s speech at the Republican National Convention in the latest installment of his “RNC 2012 – The Road to Jeb Bush 2016” in a piece entitled “A Fistful of Awesome”, noting that “Amid the tired rhetoric, empty platitudes, and frantic attacks, a fistful of awesome emerges at the Republican National Convention in the form of Clint Eastwood and a chair”.

Friday’s show addressed not only Eastwood’s speech but also served as a scathing indictment of Mitt Romney’s acceptance speech as well as discussing the real President Obama.

The show is broken into 3 segments with the first lauding Eastwood’s “Fistfull of Awesome”, the second tearing apart Romney’s idealized perspective of America, and the third taking on the difference between the Republican perspective on Pres. Obama and the truth, the real Obama.

Here is the first segment:
