What did Chuck Norris do?

[D3V]

They're all Republicans!

[Demosthenes]

What did Chuck Norris do?

1.) He's suing over the use of his name in jokes after going on the man show and finding them amusing.
2.) Supported Huckabee.

[Demosthenes]

They're all Republicans!

O.J. and Michael Vick? They're black. Doubt it.

[Kaneda]

Sueing the man show? Everyone all over uses those jokes how can that be? I've heard and seen him laugh at them.

I first remember hearing people joke about this on WoW .. guess it got out of control.

[Demosthenes]

Sueing the man show? Everyone all over uses those jokes how can that be? I've heard and seen him laugh at them.

He's not suing the man show. He's suing Penguin USA for releasing a book called The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 facts about the World's Greatest Human. Norris filed suit because they used his name claiming "trademark infringement, unjust enrichment and privacy rights."[1]

I don't understand his reasoning behind this except maybe he wants money? That's an awesome book concept. Go fuck yourself Chuck Norris.

[D3V]

Yeah, Chuck is looking like a little bitch.

Actually, I believe I seen a mountain dew commercial or something the other day where kids had put a youtube video up of Chuck norris getting beat up or something, then he gets revenge on them, that's some of the same stupid shit that has been floating around forever.


Chuck Norris, he can kill his own coolness with one whine of the tongue,.....

[Grav]

You should at least consider the rammifications of such a book existing. It makes it entirely too easy to just dismiss him politically and professionally as a clown if there's a popular book about him that's 100% satire.

That aside, Chuck Norris does enough to damage Chuck Norris' reputation. The book is just another blow.

[D3V]

There an echo in here?

[Thanatos]

Politically? Don't tell me another celebrity is trying to enter the political world...

[D3V]

He didn't mean he's going into politics in a literal sense, if Chuck Norris did though, there's no way he'd even get anywhere, Steven Colbert has more credentials than he, and he didn't even get to be put in the pool of primaries.

He supports Huckabee. Observe this crime-against-humanity endorsement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjYv2YW6azE

Fun fact I heard on NPR: to get on the ballot in North Carolina, the Democrat fee was ~$1,000 while the Republican fee was ~$10,000. [He tried to do both.]

Holy sausages, Batman! Lame. Does anybody take that Huckabee guy seriously after he pulled something like this?

[D3V]

Fun fact, Steven Colbert was trying to get on in South Carolina.

Huckabee is a baptist minister that scores really high with the religious sect of the Republicans. A LOT of people are taking him very seriously, and I applaud him for having a sense of humor and knowing a little bit of pop culture references.

[Thanatos]

A Republican BAPTIST minister eh? Does he think it's "God's will" that he should become the next President? Heh. Anyway, we don't need another George Bush running this country.

[Willkillforfood]

Oh yea, I wouldn't vote for him because a lot of his stances on issues, but he seems like a normal guy. If he wins the primary we might see a Huckabee/Colbert ticket too, since he's asked Stephen on numerous occassions to be his VP.

[D3V]

If Hilary won the Primaries and we had to vote either Repub/Democrat, and Huckabee had Colbert on his side, i'd definately make the jump across the political river.

[Demosthenes]

I am not. Voting. Huckabee. Ever. Unless DUBYa. was. democrat.

Holy God, the idea of Huckabee in office just killed my grammar sense.

[D3V]

Hah.. I'm sure Huckabee is a great guy but as said above I don't think anybody wants a preacher as a president, that alone is going to make it impossible for him to get the nom.

*insert plug for Obama here*

[Grav]

Yes, nobody except the Christian zealotry. Of which there are millions. Well-funded, well-connected millions.

[Thanatos]

That's one of the many shady reasons Bush won. Hopefully people have learned by now that this isn't the type of person we need running this country. If Huckabee gets elected, I will lose all the remaining faith I had in Americans.

Yeah, the whole 2004 election was a bit shady, masterfully played by the bush camp, however. I'm really just hoping we can move forward as a country, we have too many other fucked up things happening in the world to be fighting amongst ourselves, it would probably take another 9/11 type of deal to make us realize that, how sad.

Carlos Ray Norris, says the preface of the book refers to meetings between Norris and Spector, a Westbury, N.Y., resident and an undergraduate at Brown University...

Bullshit, I don't live in Westbury, N.Y., nor am I an undergrad. at Brown University...

those bastards ARE liars.
