God and Guns, Part 1 (Chuck Norris column and his new Fact book)
World Net Daily ^ | October 12, 2009 | Chuck Norris

God and guns are what our country was founded upon. Any new student of the Revolutionary period quickly learns that. They are what keep us strong, or what should keep us strong. They are there for our defense.

God and guns were so important to our founders that they established our protection to exercise them in the first two amendments to our Constitution – the uninhibited and unrestricted freedom to choose our own religion and bear our own firearms.

But, more and more, these pillars of American life and liberty are being attacked and abandoned, not only out of sheer bias but ignorance of our founders, the Revolutionary period and our Constitution. Instead, these pivotal American rights have become the brunt end of cultural jokes and are often regarded as biased lifestyle components of "rednecks" and rural citizens.

For example, gone but not forgotten is even President Obama's partiality on the campaign trail in April 2008. You might recall, at a private California fundraiser, when he addressed the economic hardships of those in Pennsylvania, he quipped: "You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. … And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion … as a way to explain their frustrations."

Info about his new official fact book...

The indifference, lack of education about and passion for all of our Bill of Rights gravely concerns me. And while there is nothing funny about it, it is one of many reasons why roughly one-fifth of the 101 short stories are "freedom" entries in my new book, "The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book," a fun yet inspirational and educational book in which I share my 101 favorite Chuck Norris facts – embedded within five core values: freedom, family, faith, fitness and fight. (Released on Nov. 1, it is now available for pre-order via Amazon for less than $8, and proceeds from which go to help KickStartKids).

When Chuck Norris goes to donate blood, he declines the syringe, and instead requests a hand gun and a bucket.

Chuck Norris has already been to Mars; that’s why there are no signs of life there.

For future reference, I thought you might like to know that if you post Norris’ and other articles from townhall.com or humanevents.com you don't have to excerpt them.

"When Chuck Norris goes to donate blood, he declines the syringe, and instead requests a hand gun and a bucket."

Nonsense. Chuck Norris doesn't donate blood. He donates other people's blood.

Here we are the richest country on the planet with enough oil, natural gas and coal to fulfill our energy needs for at least 300 years and I won't even get into the cogeneration electrical/desalination nuclear energy possibilities that would supply America with all the electricity and potable water ad infinitum.
And what are we doing? Borrowing money from the Chicoms so we can continue to keep their economy afloat while sending jobs overseas. And we're funding the War on Terror on BOTH ends every time we fill up at the service station.

Forrest Gump sure had America & Americans right...”Stupid is as stupid does!”
