News from the Chucktatorship

Chuck Norris is so popular among the US troops serving in Iraq that his magnificence is even rubbing off on some Iraqis:


Norris' appeal is not restricted to U.S. troops either. At an Iraqi police graduation ceremony in Falluja, graduates called out for their "Chuck Norris" to pose with them for photos.

"Truthfully, I didn't know who he was. I asked the Americans, and they said he was a great fighter, and that's why they named me after him. They showed me a video, and it's true, he's a great fighter" said police trainer Mohammed Rasheed.

With his handle-bar moustache, Rasheed has a vague resemblance to Norris.

Another police trainer said Chuck Norris was a role model for the police in Falluja, which until 2007 was an al Qaeda stronghold and the scene of fierce battles with security forces.

"I've seen his videos, he's a hero. He saves the city, he protects women and children and he fights crime wherever it is. We should all be like Chuck Norris," Khaled Hussein said.

I don't know who Jesus would punch, huh, but a cursory examination of the Gospels reveals whom Jesus would whip.

Oh no, Rod, not you, too! My husband's a high school teacher and comes home every day laughing himself silly over these Chuck Norris jokes. My daughters and I just stare at him. I think it's a guy thing, but maybe I just have no sense of humor...
