#1 I think they need to be more concerned about Senators brandishing anything longer than a 3" blade. [PS - don't rely upon the Sergeant at Arms in the Senate to do the screening].

#3 If you mean by 'that' being bearing the ceremonial sword, it depends upon what you define as normal. Wait till the bridezillas find out about that perk.

#5 Meanwhile, when W. Bush visited Iraq, if he saw an unarmed soldier, his First Sergeant had better have a damn good reason for that soldier walking around "nekkid" in a combat zone.

"Private, your weapon needs to be zeroed. You're losing a foot to the left for every 100 yards."

"Yessir, Mr. President, Sir!"

"You had a good shot pattern, though. Keep up the good work. Carry on."

"Thank you, Mr. President, Sir!"
