Chuck Norris Isn't Impressed by Santorum's Surge On Romney
Chuck Norris on Rick Santorum Surge: I’m Not Impressed. “Why an alleged conservative like Santorum would fight for the flip-flopping Massachusetts moderate on the presidential campaign trail, especially in light of the fact that Huckabee and even McCain were running then with a much clearer conservative record, I will never know,” Norris wrote yesterday in an op-ed. So remember: The only way to impress Chuck Norris is to be Chuck Norris. [The State Column]

The anonymous parents of three youngsters have filed a lawsuit against the Acton-Boxborough School District because, according to their lawyer, “Every day these kids go to school and the pledge is recited declaring that the nation is in fact under God. That marginalizes them and suggests that people who don’t believe in God are less patriotic.” [Fox]
