Clint Eastwood delivered the best convention speech I have heard since Barry Goldwater at the 1964 GOP convention.
Not a bazooka, but an M72 (series) LAW (Light Antitank Weapon), which in the movie they irritatingly called a “laws rocket”.

While it is to small to destroy a tank, though it might disable one with a lucky hit to a tread, it is just the cat’s pajamas against light vehicles, bunkers and apartments, so it is beloved for urban warfare. It is also very light, at about 5.5 pounds, so it is not uncommon to see a user with three or four of them slung on his back.
And again, unlike the movie, it does not cause a fireball by itself. If you see a fireball, it is because it hit something flammable.

Here is a more realistic video of a LAW round hitting the ground.

I still haven’t seen an “in his own words” ad about Obama. His home country of Kenya, he stands with the Muslims, he’ll close GTMO, Bill Ayers was “just a guy from the neighborhood”...
There have to be about a hundred usable statements, if we have the fortitude to use them.
