Chuck Norris to speak at Liberty graduation
Chuck Norris, the martial arts action actor and star of television's "Walker, Texas Ranger," will speak at Liberty University's graduation ceremony on May 10.
Norris had a key recommendation before being invited by Jerry Falwell Jr., Liberty's chancellor: former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. Norris was an active supporter of Huckabee's failed bid for the Republican presidential nomination.
While some conservative Christians have been critical of Hollywood's values as depicted on screen, Huckabee has gone on record as an unabashed fan of action movies, despite their violence.

Rob MilesYea, good ol' Chuck Norris, who said that, if he were elected president, he'd tattoo an American flag with "In God We Trust" on the forehead of every Atheist. What a fine, loving Christian he is.
