AceShowbiz - Clint Eastwood's speech at the 2012 Republican National Convention earned the veteran actor some of the most bemused responses in his illustrious career. During the event, he infamously called out Barack Obama with the help of an empty chair. He pointed to it and said, "So I've got Mr. Obama sitting here. I was just going to ask him a couple questions. I remember three-and-a-half years ago, Mr. Obama won the election. Though I wasn't a big supporter I was watching that night."

Recalling that he was crying when watching the then-president speech about "Hope and Change," he said, "I haven't cried that hard since I found out that there are 23 million unemployed people in this country. Now that is something to cry for because that is a national disgrace and we haven't done enough." His speech drew mixed responses from public, with many slamming the actor including Kal Penn.
