My 77 year old mum is a big Chuck Norris fan and I think that says plenty about the both of them.

1961,

over 20 states have enacted amendment 10 laws.  Which draw a line on federal power.   secession of sorts.

I support it.   The fed is run by international bankers, not by the people.   There will be a civil war by 2013.  With the bail out money to the states come strings that further strip state power.

Dissolving the union could be the only way to shake the undue foreign influence on government.  NH is actively recruiting people to move there. So is Lacota Nation.  (indian)

Justification and rationalization go hand in hand with hypocricy. So the Presidency was awarded to Bush? Look into what awarded means, and then look into what winning means. You also may want to look into what denial means as well.

He didn`t win.The election was awarded to bush by the SCOTUS.

Having been to Texas, met too many Texans, seen what they've produced as presidents.........I would be happy to get my scissors out and remove one star from my US flag and send it to them. If indeed they wish to be their own little country.

Norris isn't a native Texan.  He was born in Oklahoma and spent his childhood there.  He moved to Kansas as a teenager, then later to California.  I just thought I'd mention that before everyone started using Chuck's interview as a cue to start shitting on Texans.

Sooooo, does that make him unqualified to be their president?

Beats me.  I'm guessing not, since no Republic of Texas president was actually born there.  But native-born Texans do see that as a personal badge of honor.  We get many of them up here during the summer tourist season.  If they'd drive faster than 50 miles an hour in the left lane on our highways, they wouldn't bother me so much.

Chuck Norris.... uh huh. Right. 

Please refer to the "Republican Party Becoming a Cartoon" thread...

(shakes head slowly) It's gonna be years... YEARS! Before the GOP will be taken seriously again... maybe even decades... All because of shit like Norris, shit like Palin, shit like Limbaugh, shit like "Joe the Plumber" all grabbing the national stage.

Earlier, on the other thread, I mentioned how I thought the best comparison for the GOP would have been "Pinky and the Brain" but now, I've come across a relatively new cartoon that I think exemplifies the republican's plight even better... Are any of you familliar with the show, "The Leauge of Super Evil?" It's a really cute show about a bunch of super villian wannabes, who can't get the simplest of evil plans to come together because they are too ineffectual to work as a team. It's aimed at the elementary school crowd, with lots of slapstick... A perfect metaphor for what's happening within the ReTHUGlican party these days... (Calling them reTHUGlicans still works, of course. Only now, they are too busy beating up on each other... for venturing honest opinions...(about Rush, about gays, about abortion, about the bailout)... to turn that vile piggishness of theirs against anyone else.) While E. Coyote at least HAD plans on how to capture the roadrunner... (they just always backfired)... the GOP doesn't even have that anymore.

Pitiful...

Actually, Mars...the republican party has gone back to the policies of Regan. This time, though it's Nancy not Ron. They have decided their best bet is "Just say NO!"

As a citizen of California, I still think that our Governator could kick President Norris's ass.  If Jet Li or Brock Lesnar get into politics I'll start worrying.

I`ll admit there were a few Hollywood types who said they`d move out if this or that happened.Also saw McCain supporters say the same thing in "Right America,Feeling Wronged" on HBO.


But personally,I`vie heard over the years,many many comments like "if you don`t like it here,leave.Move somewhere else."

To witch I always replied ",No.I`ll stay here and try to make the America I want".Leaving USN`t an option.

But that`s nothing at all close to calling for a separatist movement and loping off this or that chunk of America

I`m afraid Norris is now the d`facto leader of the lunatic fringe.

Your "history" is wrong. Read that bastion of conservatism the NYT. If all the votes were properly counted GWB won.

Your history is wrong. If every voter who legally attempted to vote had been counted GWB loses by several thousand votes.


Still a lose/lose situation.

Well Kittin, I think Americans would be doing themselves an Enourmous favor by rejecting both the Republican and Democratic parties.
We aren't going to get "change" by doing the same thing over and over again.

It's not a toupee; there is some spooky shit going down behind the scenes of the Heinz Corporation.

It might be interesting to see Chuck Norris become the President of Texas.  If he declares himself President of Texas, everyone would have to go along with it, because, after all, he's Chuck Norris.  I read that, when the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night, he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.  I also read that he has a great poker face, which enabled him to win the 1983 world series of poker despite holding just a joker, a two of clubs, a seven of spades, a green number 4 from Uno, and a Monopoly "get out of jail free" card. 

It would also give new meaning to the slogan, "Don't mess with Texas."  If you mess with Texas, you mess with Chuck Norris, and then you'd really be in trouble.  Texas wouldn't really have to secede, since all the other states would secede as well and immediately petition to join Texas.

I don't know what part of Texas those people come from, but they're not from my area.  I drive an average speed of 75-90 most of the time on the freeway and plenty of people still fly right past me.  Around here, if you go the speed limit, you're likely to get flattened.
