5. he's confused
but then he may not have read the bill. Seems he mistook the argument about health care reform "killing old people" and felt worried about being "traded in". You know, for a newer more energy efficient model.

10. It comes with skids so it can be pulled across snow.

The Finns used it mostly against Russian Snipers during the Russo-Finnish War in 1939. The Finns named it the 'Elephant Gun.'

You could buy one cheap back in the early 60's and ammunition was about $1. per round back then. I used to see adverts for them in gun magazines.

The Cuban anti-Castro folks used them on speed boats to attack Cuban facilities. Soon after, they became scarce.
