Chuck Norris on 'Puff, the Magic Obama!'

Chuck Norris, writing at Townhall.com, says Barack Obama's acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention deserves an award "for the best over-the-top political spectacle of sight, sound, speech and pyrotechnics -- complete with superstar performances, "Braveheart"-like epic music, and an Olympic-sized fireworks show."

But in terms of substance, the speech left much to be desired.

Norris writes:
I realized months ago that Obama can get away with just about anything because all that too many Americans seem to care about are charisma and the term "change." It doesn't matter if Obama plagiarizes speeches, who his pastor and spiritual mentor was for 20 years, that he has the most liberal voting record in the Senate, that he refused to wear the American flag as a pin, that he didn't place his hand over his heart during the national anthem, that his wife just recently has become proud of her country, or that he is sympathetic to Muslim terrorist groups, etc. Even a decade ago, most people never could have imagined appointing such a person to be county supervisor, let alone the president of the United States.
Norris says it's time to look past the rhetoric and elect a president who is serious about tackling the nation's problems.

From his column:
It's time for America to wake up before it's too late! Bottom line: Obama's big-government solutions will cost us big money through increased taxes and increased national debt.
