			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you remember the random fact generators, particularly the <a href="http://4q.cc/index.php?pid=fact&#038;person=chuck">Chuck Norris</a> generator?  The database was quickly overrun, the clever entries diluted into harmlessness by hundreds of &#8220;lol roundhouse&#8221; jokes, with the aftermath leaving Chuck Norris a regular commentator on <a href="http://www.worldnetdaily.com">World Net Daily</a>.  A few days ago e posted a tongue-in-cheek list of <a href="http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=56107">campaign promises</a> if he were to be elected president.</p>
<p>This is how I discovered Norris to be a fascist.</p>
<p>That may be a bit harsh but the list of his &#8220;campaign promises&#8221; has, alongside the expected jokes about &#8220;the real WMDs – his fists and feet,&#8221; a promise to &#8220;deport all liberals (then force them to listen to Bill O&#8217; Reilly every day for five years, at which point they may return).&#8221;  Patriotic, isn&#8217;t it?  There&#8217;s nothing more American than deporting all political opponents, forcing them to listen to your own point of view exclusively for years on end before they can return home.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m probably overreacting but the unthinkingly loyal and blind patriotism of Norris&#8217; writing leaves me more than a little uncomfortable, memetic darling though he may be.  At least he doesn&#8217;t have any <i>real</i> political aspirations.  The way celebrity worship is in this country, he&#8217;d get elected with terrifyingly little difficulty.</p>
