More precise weapons are a good thing. Less collateral damage. Although with terrorism, the big problem is not targeting precision, but figuring out who is the bad guy and who is the innocent civilian (or not so innocent civilian willingly harboring the terrorists).

Ever hear of the AC-130U “Spooky” Gunship? Mounts one five barrel 25mm Gatling gun, one 40 mm Bofors L60 rapid fire cannon and an M102 105mm Howitzer? Used in Afghanistan Iraq and in 2007 against suspecte al-Qaeda militants in Somalia. The AC-130U is a converted C-130 Hercules - a propeller plane.
Well, good to see Annie and Warbucks are still alive. Have missed them. Years ago The Florida Times Union dropped Little Orphan Annie and Dick Tracy as too violent for our young simpletons. (Now they can get their violence from the nightly TV “news” or out in the streets.)
Started reading Little Orphan Annie in the 1940’s. Learned a lot about good people, acts of kindness, evil people, rumor mongers, do-gooders, cons & conees, politicians and corporate raiders. Along lifes way acquired a BA and MAT degree but probably acquired more useful “real world” info. from Little Orphan Annie than from the “….over schooled and under educated….” proffesors at the nine colleges and universities I bounced in and out of.

Let’s make fun of the protesters. They probably don’t even own one radio station between them.

In the testing phase it does. Wait until production to spend the big-time war bucks.

Most protesters are paid. They will be protesting something else next week.

Tea Party protesters were nicknamed “tea-baggers” by their detractors, using a sexually-charged slang term.

Scroll down to “2009 Tea Party protests.”
