Blake Farenthold: Send In Chuck Norris To Fight ISIS
Submitted by Miranda Blue on Friday, 2/13/2015 3:31 pm
Rep. Blake Farenthold, Republican of Texas, stopped by Newsmax today to discuss President Obamas request that Congress approve an Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) in the fight against the so-called Islamic State. Farenthold said that he would prefer an AUMF without restrictions on the use of ground troops because if were going to go into this, we need to go all in. But he added that he would rather put Chuck Norris in charge of the whole thing because the president isnt committed to the war on terror. Im not a big fan of President Obamas, but he was elected president, so that makes him commander-in-chief, so we need to give him full authority to do what he does, he said. Quite frankly, I think Chuck Norris would be the one to send in, not President Obama.
