Chuck Norris channels Judge Judy

Chuck Norris is all kinds of upset, which is bad news for anyone within a roundhouse kick’s distance from him. The actor-turned-political commentator has penned a column faulting President Obama, “the sultan of socialist swing,” for expanding welfare. And guess who he claims to be on his side: Judge Judy.

Norris decodes a lengthy “Judge Judy” clip in which Judith Sheindlin eviscerates a defendant for failing to use a government housing stipend to pay his rent. “I don’t even want to pay your rent,” an indignant Sheindlin tells the defendant in the clip. “The government says I have to pay your rent.” She adds: “I’m sending this tape to Congress!” Norris promises Sheindlin that “We the People will help you send it to Washington and everywhere else.”

Sheindlin’s reaction to her role in the Norris column remains a mystery, as she was unavailable for comment at presstime.
