Chuck Norris Volunteers To Lead Texas Revolution
Chuck Norris Volunteers To Lead Texas Revolution
http://www.imdb.com/news/ns0000002/

Martial-arts master Chuck Norris has his sights set on becoming more than a Texas Ranger - he has volunteered to run as the U.S. state's first president.

Norris, who played TV hardman Cordell Walker in hit series Walker, Texas Ranger, has put himself up for the job of running the region after discussing the possibility of the state seceding from U.S. control during a rant on CNN.com's political blog.

The actor, who is a staunch Republican, insists Texans want an independent state after being let down by the American government - and thinks he'd be the ideal candidate to lead the Lone Star state's revolution.

He says, "I may run for president of Texas. That need may be a reality sooner than we think. If not me, someone someday may again be running for president of the Lone Star state, if the state of the union continues to turn into the enemy of the state.

"Anyone who has been around Texas for any length of time knows exactly what we'd do if the going got rough in America."

~~~~~~~~~~~

If wishing could only make it so.

4. If anyone has watched Missing in Action 3, you would know just how terrifying this is
He is going to go all Braddock on us. He can take out about a thousand people on his own, with a butter knife....but with an Army behind him? Devastating.

36. They both have incredibility beautiful places but sometimes
you have to sacrifice for the common good. Maybe after a few years when the crazies have killed off a huge portion of their population through gun play, lack of health care, insane criminal laws (death penalty for everything) and other RW policies we could take them back. Of course a few years of only rethug rule and the natural places wouldn't be worth much. I could just see the Grand Canyon National Park outsourced as a landfill, that would work well for Ron Paul.

49. that would be a short fight
somebody would lob a whole bunch of Bar-B-Que, Shiner Bock, and Lonestar beer over the battle lines and the Texas National Guard would have a 'fuck-it' attitude in about an half an hour.

41. Is Steven Seagal a right wingnut?
I didn't get that impression since he's a Buddhist, animal rights activist and Native American rights activist... I've never heard or read anything about his political leanings though.


Peace,

Ghost

I think that's one of his only redeeming qualities.

to overthrow the Government of the United States (through secession), and his fellow nutjobs see this as 'patriotic'. Huh, interesting. Maybe Bill Ayers was a patriot after all.
