empty chair

On this week's cover, The New Yorker parodies the one-sided president debate by mashing it together with everyone's favorite Clint Eastwood performance art routine.

Eastwood on his invisible chair speech: "There was a stool there, and some fella kept asking me if I wanted to sit down. When I saw the stool sitting there, it gave me the idea."

Instead, they are pointing fingers at each other... and empty chairs.

Last night Clint Eastwood pretended President Obama was sitting in the empty chair next to him, and with that, Eastwooding was born.

"You're absolutely crazy."
