I have no words to explain this other than that. Just watch.

I would love to watch it but with no explaination I am doomed to stay away.

Internet download limit is mainly the reason sad.gif
Shannotep
Understandable.
Let's just say, Chuck Norris shouldn't be mixed with politics.
Rae-Rae =^.^=
I dunno... he could probably convince China to stop putting lead in toy paints via a single roundhouse to half the population of Beijing.
Guh?
Oh, Chuck... Why couldn't you have endorsed Obama?
Bskull
Yeah. I thought it was one of the dumbest political ads I have seen in life. I just hope Chuck doesn't come back for a second round. sad.gif
Bose
mildly entertaining...i guess....well it made me laugh at just how out of touch this yahoo is with the younger generation
Jabba
>> next time you need to totally put a description on that. I dont want to be looking at any random crap you know.
Grym
You are going to lose all dignity once TLD, or Hunter come on.
The Lone David
Yeah, I lost some serious respect for you right there Shannon, Mr. Norris is banned for a good reason.
Lunaya
I thought it was funny as Hell...in..you know, a sad kinda way. ph34r.gif
Verbose
It's an attempt to use familiarity to buy votes.

Not a bad one, either.
Jabba
But still.. chuck norris? This wastes my VALUEABLE time. I could be playing wow, or talking to a loved one!

dry.gif You know, usually I'd be all for the verbal lynching of bringing up Chuck Norris... in anything... [Shudder] ...But I have to assume that was posted simply to make people realize that actors should stay just that: actors. Just because you made yourself popular (or someone else did) doesn't mean you are a multi-talented fishstick.

As for bringing Chuck Norris into my house... [fires up the chainsaw]

Agreed

dry.gif I found no humor in it. It just made me want to skin a kitten alive.

Well, with Chuck Norris and Ric Flair ("pro-wrestler"), I think Mike Huckabee is running on the "If you don't vote for me you're a pussy" campaign.
Verbose
Are the other campaigners any better?

Then again, your votes don't matter for a very different reason than for why mine don't matter. With me, both sides are the same. The candidates actually look the same.

I should have realised someone would break into the Chuck Norris jokes. But I guess I was hoping that most of the people who would reply would reply with something a bitmore educated than that. I was just hoping people could watch it and be as dumbstruck with politics in the US as I was after watching this. I knew they were bad, but come on, this is way low.

So my initial reaction was correct. I win.
Shannotep
Hm, yes you do. Although, I feel the chainsaw is a bit much when directed at me.
Sayuri Kajira
rolleyes.gif Consider it the same as a slap on the hand when it comes to me. Be glad you weren't caught in the web of my ropes and chains.
Josef bugman
Hey, some people would pay good money for the rope wink.gif

Plus, why on earth do people who are actors feel they have the right to comment on anything, they are actors, I don't go and tell them how to do shakespeare, they shouldn't tell me how to vote tongue.gif
Lunaya
I wouldn't even put Chuck Norris on the same level as Shakespearean actors. I mean, come on. What exactly has he contributed to art?
Josef bugman
nowt much, I was just using it as an example of people not straying out of their respective fields smile.gif
Arxym
Chuck Norris? Politics?
For some reason I feel this is the equivilant of deviding by zero on the internet...
Bskull
Chuck has sold his soul, but this time it's to bad politics. Sounds like a plot for a new movie.
Sayuri Kajira
rolleyes.gif While I do believe that Ah-nold the Governator has done a fairly decent job in office, I just can't imagine Chuck Norris contributing anything to politics. The only thing he has done is "Kick Drugs Out of America" and that failed like the D.A.R.E. program. In fact, you hear more about D.A.R.E. than you do his. I'd be more willing to support John McEnroe's Tennis Camp for Angry Kids.
Guh?
If I had the ability to vote, I would see this as a joke, nothing more. It wouldn't actually spur me towards voting for any candidate in particular.

At least you're voting-- even if it is for all the wrong reasons.
Neomancer
Like it truly matters. Whether you vote the way some hack actor tells you to is irrelevant. America as a representative democracy is an illusion. The popular vote doesn't matter, it's the electoral college that ultimately decides who the next president is. The will of the people has no direct bearing on how America is ran anymore (if it ever did).
Josef bugman
1. The electoral college is used as a lazy excuse to stop people voting
2. It has only produced 1 "wrong way round" redult, and this was the one in 2000.
3. The reason that it is not a "representative" democracy is because you have a larger number of crackpots who will vote, and a small number of intelligent people who will vote.

I fail to understand how America is so conservative, I mean I know Britain is, but were an island and have been at war with everyone at least once.

It will when Americans get the idea to vote me into office. Start campaigning for me!!

Hm, yes. And while we're all very aware of this fact, it seems our 'representative' governement likes to continue to do it. I might just give up and start joinning in. Now where did I like my shotgun and 'God Bless the USA and Only the USA' t-shirt?

Has my presence done nothing to alleviate the need for such stereotypical things? First off, the government isn't representative nor reflective of the populus. It is merely a bureaucratic stand-in for a dictatorship. Secondly, if you join in on something so wretchedly humane as showing any semblance of patriotism to the current regime-- you will be smacked. With a Buick. Thirdly, the t-shirt can be burned in the Bonfire of Serious Reevaluation.

Yea, I realise this. That was why I used the 'almost quotes' around representative. Probably should have used "actualy quotes."

Hardly. I've given up on Planet Earth. However, when we start to colonize Mars...

What about counter-culture? Do I smell that?

We should share a condo. Provided you do the decorating. We all know how my sense of decor could be taken wrong.

I'm probly gonna stay here and slowly evolve into my own race of mole people.

So far so good.
Sayuri Kajira
Don't force me to institute my own form of government.

Sorry, sorry. Mars it is.
Sayuri Kajira
Be true to the regime, Guru. You know you want to. We outlawed Chuck Norris and any other actor / politicians.

A world without Tom Cruz......
Sayuri Kajira
Don't get me started on his lack of vision. That man actually puts so much faith into Scientology that he doesn't see how awful he's become. That man should be run over with Godzilla.
Guru
Maybe confined to spend the rest of his days with rosie o donnell and carrot top?
Sayuri Kajira
I lost all hope for the man after I watched him do that to poor Katie Holmes. Then when he thought he could change the world because he is an actor? Trey Parker and Matt Stone had it right in their Team America movie.
