Chuck Norris kicks out the vote in NRA spot
This new NRA ad with Chuck Norris is, for the most part, a pretty insulting portrayal of gun owners as goofy, mulleted hicks. Where's the Kenny Powers cameo? Maybe the point here is to convince NRA members that civic participation beats violent rhetoric that plays up stereotypes, but they have too much fun mocking rednecks for this to be a completely benign gesture (not to mention, Norris is a jerkoff). Kudos for the karate-chopping-the-boombox moment, though. That was great.
