Why bother with this stuff? Our neutered leadership will never use it. Rather, send the money to GM, Chrysler, Acorn, SEIU, Calfornia, NY, Michigan, NJ, Detroit, etc etc etc.

Incredible. We now have the ultimate anti-artillery system. Not to mention a ‘90-km sniper’ and Lord knows what else our guys can think up. For sheer economics, old fashioned artillery still has a place, but this is a game-changer-and all we did was gin up a new warhead!
