Speaking of the NRA, here is a lame Chuck Norris "Get Out the Vote" advertisement that they paid for.

Here are the ten reasons provided courtesy of AATTP: 

No. 10: “You can always ignore my advice. The dinosaurs did.” 

No. 9: “Because I’ll know if you don’t.” 

No. 8: “You have time right now. I know, because I’m standing right behind you.” 

No. 7: “It’s taken me a lifetime to earn your respect. You can earn mine by registering to vote. 

No. 6: “Because I said so [pounding fists].” 

No. 5: “Anyone can throw a punch. It takes a real man or woman to punch a voter registration card.” 

No. 4: “Because the other guys don’t want you to. Well, I know who they are.” 

No. 3: “The only thing stronger than these? [Holds up his fists] Your vote.” 

No. 2: “I get asked for my autograph all the time. Now your government is asking for yours.” 

No. 1: “With one hand I can crush coal into a diamond. [Makes crushing motion with one hand.] With yours you can protect your rights.” 

aaaand… 

No. 11: “Because Chuck Norris can have as many reasons as he wants.” Chuck Norris and the NRA want gun owners to vote.

You have to know that during the clenched fists portion of this video that old Chuckie's aged knuckles were firing of like a 21 gun salute to irrelevance.

The man is 74 years old for fuck's sake.

He may have been a bad ass in his day, but there are ten year olds that could kick his ass and take his Social Security check these days.

As always after watching Norris act like the toughest guy in the nursing home, I will cleanse my palate by watching the far more talented, and bad ass, Bruce Lee kick his ass.

I have seen that over a hundred times now. Never gets old.

The Right Wing's dream presidential candidate.

And yes he did actually say this.

He claims he was joking, but let's face it if he could get away with something like this he would.

By the way, just for the record, Bruce Lee was a much superior martial artist. In fact Chuck was one of his students.

Not only that but Lee was an Atheist, a philosopher, and pretty damn liberal.

 In other words the exact opposite of old "Hobbling around in a Walker Texas Ranger" up there.

Ten Bruce Lee facts because he was my hero when I was a kid.

Here is my favorite fact.

7. Want to challenge Bruce Lee? Just tap your foot on the ground!After he got famous, a lot of people thought they could beat Bruce - they would walk up to him, tap their foot on the ground (symbolizing a challenge) and then proceed to attack him! Well… maybe not that literal, but Bruce’s popularity certainly attracted a lot nutcase trying to prove they’re better than him.

One day, while filming Enter the Dragon, an extra taunted Bruce Lee and challenged him to fight. The whole thing went on like this:

"This kid was good. He was no punk. He was strong and fast, and he was really trying to punch Bruce’s brains in. But Bruce just methodically took him apart."

"I mean Bruce kept moving so well, this kid couldn’t touch him…Then all of a sudden, Bruce got him and rammed his ass into the wall and swept him, he proceeded to drop his knee into his opponent’s chest, locked his arm out straight, and nailed him in the face repeatedly."

Typical of Bruce Lee, after the fight he didn’t fire the extra - he actually gave his challenger lesson on how to improve!

Hey, everybody needs a break from politics once in a while.
