It is being called, “The Chuck Norris Option.” Chances are, this is the first time you have ever heard of it. That’s because, until now, the three hundred pound GOP Elephant sitting in the room, staring at us with a blank expression, has not been properly addressed.
Mitt Romney, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, and Sarah Palin all have various strengths and weaknesses as potential GOP Candidates for the 2012 Presidential Election. Sarah Palin seemed to be the only one in McCain’s doomed 2008 Campaign not to understand that the, “fix was in,” from the beginning, and that her role was to keep a smile on her face while the GOP ship slowly took on water and headed for the bottom. She rebelled against the McCain Camp lackeys, made an excellent conservative stand, and now has a base of loyal followers that can not be discounted.
However, the relentless left-wing media ambush continues to this day. Television shows designed for the brain-dead American populace such as Entertainment Tonight and Oprah Winfrey still set her up with senseless personal questions about her daughter’s out of wedlock pregnancy, or her very Christian decision to not abort her new born son who is afflicted with Down Syndrome.
In the meantime, she is doing a great job at raising money while keeping the left distracted and annoyed. If she does decide to run in 2012, and the choice comes down to Palin or Obama, conservatives will be energized en masse. Unfortunately the soft middle ground of voters known as “Independents” tend to go with whatever the mainstream media thinks is best for them. Palin would be a tough-sell. In this scenario, we would most likely end up with four, possibly more, (depending on how much he has changed the Constitution by then) years of The One.
The Oprah Winfrey Theory of Life which much of the Obama Administration seems to be based on, hasn’t worked out so well. At the moment it isn’t even clear if there will be an America around to save by 2012.
The One has only been in power for fifteen months and we have already seen three Islamic terrorist attacks on our soil. Two were thwarted, not by any skill enacted by the Department of Homeland Security, but by pure luck. The Fort Hood Massacre has been the most deadly attack under The One’s watch to date, yet the investigation has been covered up with even more political correctness, as if burying our heads in the sand will make the problem go away.
Obama and his crew of left wing nut jobs have used clever wording to attempt to turn it into something else, but by any sane measure of the situation, we are still in a war. Hardcore Islamic fundamentalists still want to kill us. Oprah can’t help us. Obama has failed. Imagine if the Times Square bomber had a suitcase nuclear device instead of a crude car-bomb? With our soft stance against Iran, it seems to be only a matter of time.
Suitcase nuclear technology was stolen during Bill Clinton’s watch in an incident known as “China Gate.” However the Lewinsky affair took center stage at the time, so most of America has never heard about it.
Rush, the Canadian rock band, not the man behind the microphone, once wrote a song titled Force 10. The lyrics start, “tough times, demand tough talk from men, tough hearts from men…” The song is about the rise and fall of empires, and warns listeners to look out for, “the force without form.”
These are tough times and we need tough men to lead us through the days ahead. This is why the “Chuck Norris Option” has been placed on the table. The man is not just an actor, he is a real life Karate Black-Belt champion who could take on Vladimir Putin, and leave him searching for his teeth.
Chuck Norris is also a staunch conservative who happens to write a weekly column for Townhall.com. He is a great thinker and no stranger to politics. If he can persuade J.C. Watts into being his Vice President, then America might just be blessed with a real life version of, “Walker, Texas Ranger.”
