Candid Camera
When I saw a headline linked on Hot Air for a grenade camera, I thought, “Awesome idea! If we put cameras on grenades, then we can get some really funny shots of terrorists before it explodes!”
Ends up, it’s just a camera you can throw. How are we going to get any entertainment out of that?

Wouldn’t a camera attached to a grenade also explode, destroying the silly pictures?

Yeah, I read about this yesterday and thought it sounds like pretty cool stuff. Wouldn’t it be cool to watch a baseball game from the ball’s point of view? Or maybe put them inside the Jack-In-The-Box antennae balls for surveillance…”Mommy, the antennae balls watch me sleep at night!”

Use a black camera and yell “GRENADE!!” as you toss it into a crowd of Code Pinkos. Probably end up with a few funny pics from something like that. Guarantee none are brave enough to dive on it to save their comrades.

Even though we wish dearly that they would. Not on the camera, but a real grenade.

Frank, you’re an engineer. Why not design an exploding camera? Surely it can’t be that tough to make, if an idiot like Bill Ayers can do the splodey part.
Which makes me realize: Bill Ayers was one of the smarter Weather Underground types: he didn’t blow himself up. Imagine if the ones who blew themselves up had survived, and Obama had learned politics from them?
We’d be in a river of it, then.

I think Frank is interested in this camera because it has a Field Programmable Gate Array in it.

You need to add the Heinlein Starship Troopers speaker options
In Arabic
“I am a 4 second grenade”
“I am a 3 second grenade”
“I am a 2 second grenade”
“I am a” Ker—boooom!!!!!!

We’d get some memorable shots with a throwable camera; the priceless look of shock & confusion on a dirty stinky filthy leftard at the moment of facial impact.
Wait a sec… aren’t these already being used? Cindy Sheehan looks like she’s taken about a dozen direct hits…POW! Right in the kisser! POW! Right in the kisser! POW! Right in the…
Sorry. That’s one of the few Family Guy skits that was memorably funny.

First off.. Does it look like a grenade? That would be coooool. Secondly, if you threw it into a crowd of code pinkos better have some bleach handy to clean he poor thing off… cause they are going piss themselves (and all over everything else) upon recognition…

You would get better results if you attached a tiny camera to, let’s say, a bottle of Scotch in Ted Kennedy’s house, the back pocket of Barney Frank’s pants, or inside Obama’s Koran.

You could try to get one past the Secret Service. That should be good for a few laughs. But seriously, if the casing is sturdy enough, you could tape a firecracker to it. That would really make your victims wet themselves.

This should make Cadet Happy even happier. Even when Frank tries to hide out in his Idaho compound, the Cadet can just shoot one of these in there and continue to bring us the candid pix of the real Frank.
