Has CE found the Lord? Does he dedicate his life to God? Is he the most moral man the RNC can find? So why would Christians think Eastwood gave a good 'performance' on the stage. Well...he's an actor! He's acting! So in this aspect and solely according to this perspective...I agree! Good performance for an actor.
We are talking about an image here...an image that the media portrayed him to be a man who takes nothing off anybody. Dirty Harry...."go ahead and make my day". The Outlaw Josie Wales who killed his victims and then spit on their face as they lay dead.
This is the Clint Eastwood that so many people, in general, put him on a pedestal and think he is one grand cookie.

[edit]Relationships
Eastwood has fathered at least seven children by five different women and been described as a "serial womanizer".[4][5] He has had affairs with actresses Catherine Deneuve,[247][248] Jill Banner,[249] Jamie Rose,[250] Inger Stevens,[251] Jo Ann Harris,[252] Jean Seberg,[253] script analyst Megan Rose,[252][254] James Brolin's former wife Jane,[255] columnist Bridget Byrne, [256] and swimming champion Anita Lhoest.[247] One relationship that could not be classified as an "affair" was with Barbra Streisand, whom he briefly dated.[257]
Eastwood married Maggie Johnson on December 19, 1953, six months after they met on a blind date.[258] While separated from Johnson, Eastwood had an affair with dancer Roxanne Tunis, with whom he had his first child, Kimber Tunis (born June 17, 1964); he did not publicly acknowledge her until 1996.[259] After a reconciliation, he had two children with Johnson: Kyle Eastwood (born May 19, 1968) and Alison Eastwood (born May 22, 1972). Eastwood filed for divorce in 1979 after another long separation, but the $25 million divorce settlement was not finalized until May 1984.[260][261]
Eastwood entered a relationship with actress Sondra Locke in 1975. They lived together for fourteen years, despite the fact that Locke remained married (in name only) to her gay husband, Gordon Anderson.[262][263] Locke had two abortions and a tubal ligation within the first four years of the relationship.[264][265] The couple starred in six films together: The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way but Loose, Bronco Billy, Any Which Way You Can, and Sudden Impact. On April 10, 1989, while Locke was directing the film Impulse, Eastwood changed the locks on their Bel Air home, had many of her possessions removed and placed in storage.[266] Locke filed a palimony suit against Eastwood, then sued him a second time for fraud, regarding a phony directing contract he set up for her in settlement of the first lawsuit.[267] Eastwood and Locke finally resolved the dispute with a non-public settlement in 1999.[268] Her autobiography, The Good, the Bad, and the Very Ugly, includes a harrowing account of Eastwood's treatment of her during the events surrounding their separation.[269]
During the last four years of his cohabitation with Locke, Eastwood had an intermittent, hidden affair with flight attendant Jacelyn Reeves. According to biographers, the two met at a pub in Carmel, and conceived a son, Scott Reeves (born March 21, 1986), at the premiere of Pale Rider.[270] They also had a daughter, Kathryn Reeves (born February 2, 1988).[261] The birth certificates for both children stated "Father declined."[271][272] Although they were mentioned in exposé articles as early as 1997, Eastwood did not present his and Reeves' children to the public until 2002.[273] Kathryn served as Miss Golden Globe at the 2005 ceremony where she presented Eastwood with an award for Million Dollar Baby.[274]
In 1990, Eastwood began living with actress Frances Fisher, whom he had met on the set of Pink Cadillac (1989).[275] They co-starred in Unforgiven, and had a daughter, Francesca Fisher-Eastwood (born August 7, 1993).[276] The couple ended their relationship in early 1995,[277] but remain friends and later acted together in True Crime.
Eastwood with wife Dina in 2007
Eastwood subsequently began dating Dina Ruiz, a television news anchor 35 years his junior, whom he had first met when she interviewed him in 1993.[276] They married on March 31, 1996, when Eastwood surprised her with a private ceremony at a home on the Shadow Creek Golf Course in Las Vegas.[278] After their wedding, Dina commented "The fact that I am only the second woman he has married really touches me."[279] The couple have one daughter, Morgan Eastwood (born December 12, 1996).[280]
Johnson, Tunis and Reeves have never publicly discussed their time with Eastwood, while Fisher said of their relationship "If the other person is not willing to grow and work on it, you can't do it by yourself."[281] When asked to comment on the news of Eastwood's marriage to Dina Ruiz in 1996, Sondra Locke told People magazine "The only thing that's sad is that there are several women in his life who are the mothers of his children, and he chose to marry one who is not."[282]
