Edited on Wed Aug-22-07 05:54 PM by jhuth
living in Minnesota and witnessing the motorcade yesterday, I couldn't help but think about this. This vehicle was in that mortorcade, I'm sure of it, and it's quite over the top. Bush is such a paranoid little man. When will we have a leader that rises above this and tells the American people, WE DON'T HAVE TO BE AFRAID ANYMORE, WE ARE AMERICA!! Sure there are threats, there always have been, but our nation has never acted like a bunch of paranoid idiots to the extent that we do now. A true leader would rise above it all!

My Grandma passed away about a year ago at 93, and she was a very wise woman, a librarian who had the church library named after her, and she often remorsed at what was happening to our country. We were becoming weak in her mind, scared of the boogyman, but more scared of our own citizens. I wish Gramdma would be here to see us take our country back from these immoral idiots.

Just sayin.

2. There is also another model known to be used by BushCo
It is the same vehicle, but a .50 cal machine gun shoots up out of the roof and it is remote controlled from inside the vehicle.

It's the first search I have done on that particular gun, too. I really hate weapons manufacturers and war mongering goons. But you already knew that.

PS- That's 3000 rounds per minute. In case you missed the Monster Garage episode, here it is.

8. Haha. I believe I'm sensing a Dick Cheney comparison.
I was just thinking that there would be nothing left of a quail. Then I thought, real hunters eat what they shoot. And then I thought, ew... Maybe that's what is in that man sized safe in Cheney's office.

Well, that was a poorly executed joke about Cheney shooting a lawyer. Oh well.

9. Remember in the Chronicles of Riddick, "you keep what you kill",
imagine the dick having to keep a lawyer tacked up over his mantle. What would the neighbors say???

5. An attack is probably preventable if we simply apply the safeguards
that Bush has tossed aside for all practical purposes. Anything is preferable to existing under a regimen of spying and lying and loss of liberty.

6. I used to see those things patrolling around LANL
back in the 80's. we called them Super Suburbans. solid rubber tires. the M-16 turrets weren't quite as stealth, though.

LANL = Los Alamos Natnl Labs (NM)
