Obama and Biden...take note.
And hope you get away with just "emasculation" and not a full metal
jacket verbal blast from Palin.

"In this species, the female is deadlier than the male..."

(my rough recollection from one of Rudyard Kipling's writings)

This undated photo provided by the Heath family shows Alaska Gov.
Sarah Palin with one of her daughters posing with the caribou she
shot in Alaska.


Palin may not be a deer-hunter (most of the time)...but I'd
give her the deer-hunter advice...in figurative terms, of how
to deal with Obama/Biden:
"Just one shot, Nick Sarah."

Too bad that was just an image of Obama and the plagiarist up there on the screen.

(It's a training simulator. That's not a functional M-16, note the cable bundle. But she does seem to know her way around the weapon.)

FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO SHOOT, PLEASE

It's a simulator dude. She may have just finished "shooting" and ran it dry, or she may be snap shooting. Hard to tell.

That appears to be an M-4 equiped with a laser scorer.

It's that, and somewhat more, if by "laser scorer" you mean something like a "MILES" laser. You might have noticed in the video that there is a big cable coming out of the "magazine". The M-4 has been gutted, and really isn't a firearm at all. It's got a pneumatic "kicker" to simulate the recoil. I've "fired" something similar, including one built on an M-240 machine gun, mounted on the top of a simulated "HUMVEE". The driver's sim and the shooters sim were tied together, so as the shooter, you went where the driver drove. The version I "shot" had you wear VR goggles, to display the simulated world. Pretty cool, but the goggles( very early models) were too bulky and interfered with a proper sight picture. Of course you could use the simulated tracers to "aim".

Palin is no emasculating shrew, she's every real man's sweetheart.

Lordy! You're so right. She is such a babe. I've gotten used to female politicians looking like Gorgons, (Janet Reno, and, of course, The Witch Herself).
