Our Doomed Nation
For some reason, Mike Huckabee thinks that recruiting washed-up martial-arts ex-’stars’ will give his presidential campaign a needed boost.
This ad creates an interesting puzzle: From watching it, we can deduce that somebody out there is really goddamn stupid, but we don’t really know who.
Is it the Huckabee campaign, for thinking that anyone out there is dumb enough to use Chuck Norris’ endorsement as a basis for choosing the most powerful leader in the world? Or is it the people who actually do use Chuck Norris’ endorsement as a basis for choosing the most powerful leader in the world? Either way, I’m pretty sure our nation is basically doomed.
“Hey, ma! I’m a-votin’ fer Walker-Texas-Ranger!”
Gavin adds: It’s not like we couldn’t have seen this coming…
And if Chuck Norris is too rarefied, too coastal and elite-cultural a figure to suit some voters’ broadly American tastes, there’s also this:
Huckabee Stumps With Ric Flair
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Republican presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee carved out a corner of South Carolina’s biggest annual sporting event Saturday, drawing a throng of supporters to a college football tailgate appearance with former pro wrestler “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair.
Hey Huckabee staffers, you know who hasn’t endorsed anyone yet?

If it was someone like Jimmy Wang Yu I might give a shit. The One Armed Boxer is the kind of character whose opinions I can respect. Walker, Texas Ranger? Not so much.

Hey, Huckabee heard about all those super-rad Chuck Norris facts and wanted to capture a little bit of that World of Warcraft nerd chic thing for himself. Fer instance “There are no races, only countries of people Chuck Norris has beaten to different shades of black and blue.” And “There is no chin behind Chuck Norris’ beard. There is only another fist.”
And my favorite: ” There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of animals Chuck Norris allows to live.”

Is this website unaware of the fact that more than once an actor has been elected to governorship and once even became president?
Seriously, the Norris endorsement is a serious issue.
Legalize said,
November 26, 2007 at 21:22
Sadly, I believe that having Chuck Norris in Huckabee’s camp will actually carry water with wingnut voters, because yeah, he’s a walking platitude totally lacking in substance, displaying absolutely zero substantive understanding of weighty issues. Wingnuts wet themselves at the very thought of such a man. See Fred Thompson.

And the irony - for me at least - comes from the fact that Chuck Norris is about the most boring and uninteresting action star there ever was.
If only Marv Throneberry was alive to endorse Huckabee.
mds said,
November 26, 2007 at 21:30
And my favorite: ” There is no theory of evolution….”
Stop right there, and it’s already a Huckabee fact.
Hey, perhaps this will be the next big internet thing, up there with “Stevens Tubes,” “Audible Laughter Animal Captions,” or taping bacon to one’s cat:
“Mike Huckabee trashes Arkansas government hard drives with his mind.”
“Why does Justice wear a blindfold? Because Mike Huckabee poked her eyes out with Wayne Dumond’s testicles.”
“There’s no such thing as ‘women’s rights,’ only Mike Huckabee’s permission.”
Hmm, this is actually more difficult than I realized.

Johnny Coelacanth said,

I read Norris’ autobiography about 10 years ago. He sounded like an intelligent, grounded guy with an interesting, disciplined outlook on life. I wasn’t sure, because he didn’t come out and say it, but I thought he was a Buddhist. Something happened to him in the interim. Maybe all those blows to the head are finally sinking in.
El_Cid said,

I honestly think that Bush Jr. actually burned out our nation’s previously unbeatable fascination with “stupid” as a qualification for office-holding. For a while at least. I feel like people actually got enough of that, and watching the Katrina disaster made a whole, lot of people who used to seem to like them dang folks like theyselves over them damn pointy-headed big thinkin’ types to suddenly say, “Hey, maybe havin’ a bunch a damn ijits in ain’t doin’ us no damn goodatall.”

Yeah.
Retired General Tony McPeak, former member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, quoted in Rolling Stone last March:
America has been conducting an experiment for the past six years, trying to validate the proposition that it really doesn’t make any difference who you elect president. Now we know the result of that experiment [laughs]. If a guy is stupid, it makes a big difference.
Smiling Mortician said,
November 26, 2007 at 21:56
And good for McPeak, I guess. But why do these interviews show up in places like Rolling Stone and not in, oh I dunno, the New York Times or something? Can’t we please be done with the whole it’s-not-nice-to-make-fun-of-retard-presidents-in-the-big-league-press thing?
Snorghagen said,
November 26, 2007 at 21:56
A Fred Thompson / Chuck Norris ticket would be a match made in heaven.
But since these characters have no substance anyway, why should the Republicans limit themselves to actual living human beings? They could have Sergeant Rock as Secretary of Defense, the Pillsbury Doughboy as Press Secretary, and Mr. Magoo as Attorney General. The possibilities are endless.
steve EVfuture said,
November 26, 2007 at 21:57
I think he is counting on the fact that it’s the American public that is “really goddamn stupid” and will take a Chuck Norris endorsement seriously. I’m betting it will get him votes.

“Mike Huckabee can hammer a railroad spike through the Constitution… with his armpit hair.”
“Mike Huckabee roundhouse kicked the press credentials of the Arkansas Times so hard, they were revoked clear back to the beginning of time.”

mds said,
November 26, 2007 at 22:23
Who’s next? Dog the Bounty Hunter?
Whoever else best exemplifies Huckabee’s deep devotion to Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace. Unfortunately, using Frank Castle would probably run afoul of Marvel’s intellectual property.
Hmm, religious-themed ones:
“Jesus turned the other cheek; Mike Huckabee punches people out with his ass cheeks.”
“Mike Huckabee doesn’t forgive; he waits.”

The fact is, Chuck Norris punched a girl in the face while he was driving a convertible, and John Edwards won’t even drive a convertible because of he doesn’t want to mess-up his expensive haircut. Real Americans know that Chuck Norri’s beard is worth more than John Edward’s hair. In the Heartland we know that Chuck Norris could beat Barack “Osama” Obama to a pulp — using Hitlery Cleniston as a bludjun. True Red-Blooded Americans, not double-decaf-chardonnay-liberals, will vote for Huckabee because (A) he is a True Conservative and (2) they want to pull the Walker, Texas Ranger lever.
Snorghagen said,
November 26, 2007 at 22:37
I can’t help but think that these are too subtle for the target audience. I think you’d get better results with:
“Mike Huckabee wants to squash frogs with his bare feet - just like you!”
or maybe just:
“Mike Huckabee kick open door - scream - punch in the face - smash window - vote for President - Huckabee!!!!”

It’s the stagnant gene-pool thing. Arkansas just got a Chuck Norris movie at the drive-in, so he’s pretty hot right now. But he replaces a very popular Chuck Heston, so he’s got some big shoes to fill.
Huckleberry should be able to ride the big Hollywood money to a very impressive finish in many of the Appalachian states that share the DNA and lack of dentists.

Am I the only one to find it quite ironic, that tough boy’s most famous movie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Way_of_the_Dragon) featured a scene where he got his ass kicked by a chinese citizen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Lee). When China is arguably the most challenging nation to the us superpower economically. I also understand China represents a threat to the us(http://www.sadlyno.com/archives/7906.html).

Well, if Chuck Norris is on the side of a man who made it his political life to release a convicted murderer/rapist from prison, the world has truly gone mad.
Now Chuck is going to have to get his Ranger badge all buffered up and go out and find this bad dude.
If Chuck needs any help, I recommend the A-Team. I mean, the goofy science guy was also the arsonist in the movie version of the Stand.
And don’t get me started on Mr. T.

The fact is, Chuck Norris Meme (whatever a “meme” is) is still way better than your latte-drinking, Volvo driving, nipple piercing, Arbeiter-Zeitung-reading liberals’ “I Heart Huckabees” references, because at least some people have SEEN Chuck Norris. I mean, “existentialist detectives”? Real Heartland Americans know that only rationalists and empiricists (meaning Christians, which Chuck Norris is, he just used to be sort of into Buddhism but now isn’t) make good detectives.
UPDATE: liberals will be sad to know that the very popular BORAT has endorsed Governor Huckabee, saying he “is the man to continue George Walter (sic) Bush’s War Of Terror”. Limp-wristed liberals only have annoying celebrities like Rosie O’Donnell and Flavor Flav.

Please. Given Ric Flair’s history, I wouldn’t be surprised if, after
Huckabee wins the Republican nomination, Flair stands beside him on
the podium, raises Huckabee’s arm in the air, then turns towards him
and kicks him in the nuts. Huck falls to the ground and Flair beats
him unconscious, before ripping off his suit jacket to reveal a John
Edwards t-shirt.
“John Edwards is a limousine ridin’, jet flying, kiss stealin’,
wheelin’ dealing, son of a gun….WOOOOOOO!”

Smut, I once knew someone who had a finite Erdos number, and quite a small one at that. Could have been 1, or 2. But that’s life in the heady world of number theory.

But think about it, t4toby (if that was the real pseudonym, and not just a nym) — it’s a real shock to the system when you open up a thread and find several comments already there with your name on.

Actually, Saul, if we were to deploy Chuck Norris - a Hollywood actor - at the Southern Border, he would probably request a private suite at the best hotel in El Paso, a chauffeur-driven Suburban, his personal assistant AND hairdresser present throughout the deployment, and his favorite caterer doing the Crafts Services table.
Additionally, he would need someone to run his lines with him, and he’d have to have first approval for wardrobe.
Saul - see, here’s your problem. You can’t tell the difference between a Hollywood actor and an actual law enforcement officer. Kind of like you can’t tell the difference between the ne’er-do-well son of a politician promoted above his ability, and a real leader.
