Chuck Norris Tells Gun Owners To ‘Trigger’ The Vote In NRA Video

Glynnis MacNicol | Mediaite

Chuck Norris is back.  Norris, who came to the political fore after endorsing Mike Huckabee during the 2008 campaign, has returned with an ad, sponsored by the NRA, to “trigger” the vote.  Get it?  Sort of like reload but slightly less threatening.  In the spot Norris visits a local tea party (complete with chalkboard!) and ‘triggers’ them to vote.

Also taking a page from the Sarah Palin vernacular is the introduction of the Blue Cougar, a “Blougar.”  In regular language, a grandma who’s ready to kick the ass of anyone who wants to take away her rights.  Presumably, the next step for the Mama Grizzlies.  Watch below.
