Chuck Norris Fact: Fabricated Path to 9/11 Scene ‘Should Not Have Been In The Film’

Conservative actor Chuck Norris filled in for Sean Hannity last night on Hannity & Colmes. (He should really stick to martial arts.)

Norris commented on Hannity’s plans to broadcast the fictitious scenes that ABC cut from its controversial docudrama, “The Path to 9/11.” In one fabricated scene, which ABC acknowledges was “improvised,” former National Security Adviser Sandy Berger is shown refusing to give the order to the CIA to take a clear shot at Osama bin Laden.

Last night, Norris said, “I hate to see a movie used as a political platform, whether it’s leaning right” — which he said while gesturing to the left — “or leaning left” — said while gesturing to the right. Moreover, he said, if the Berger scene did not happen, it “should not have been in the film.”

1. I don't understand...
This is coming from someone with but one Chuck Norris disc, and I'm not throwing out my "Return of the Dragon"!

But, the way I read this, he says that the part that wasn't true shouldn't be in the film.

What's the problem?

As for his view about movies as political platforms, I tend to agree. I take it his use of the word "movie" (as opposed to "film") means a non-documentary.

So, I, like him wouldn't want to start watching say, a Bruce Willis movie and for it to get all preachy about how being a conservative is a good thing and that liberals are bad, especially if it didn't have something directly to do with the story, etc.

So, what's the problem? Can I keep my "Total Gym"?

3. "F*cking Chuck Norris" seemed somewhat "Fair and balanced"

He thinks he's a good catch or something. Years ago me and friends of mine had gone out and we saw another friend of ours who had Chuck Norris with him. I don't think anyone realized who he was and my friend introduced him as the Chuck Norris.I think he expected all of us to want his autograph.
