Sounds almost hopefull.
Who is trafficing in "Fear Mongering" now?
It would truly be a disaster if all the Republicans were killed while attending the inauguration while the Democrats were plotting their comeback.
"Sounds almost hopefull."
My sentiments exactly. MSNBC has turned into one of the most biased "news" organizations ever.
Yep. How many different 'news' organizations have written about this now? Just wishful thinking on their part. Ghouls.
Meaning, read my article?
Welcome to Free Republic!
I tell you, the MSM is doing everything it can to provoke some loose cannon into attempting an assassination.
Why would MSNBC publish this? Didn't they get the memo from Michael Moore that not only is the terrorist threat overblown and overhyped, but that it doesn't even exist? I know I sleep easier after hearing the world reknowned director Michael Moore tell us that. </sarcasm>

I don't think I can think an unthinkable thought.
ping!
...Under Sherman?s bill, the line of succession would begin with the Secretary of State and extend through the Cabinet, but would for the first time include officials outside Washington, D.C., and in some cases outside the borders of the United States, specifically the ambassador to the United Nations, the ambassador to Great Britain and a few other American ambassadors...
I don't get the rush to get power OUT of the hands of the duly elected and into the hands of those who are appointed.
Why remove the Speaker and Senate President Pro Tempore from the lineup? They've been elected and they know what's going on.
Why an ambassador?
You could get some real putz that way.
Actually, you're probably closer to the truth than my first thought of it being just mere wishful thinking.
BTW, is there no official Inauguration thread today? FR seems slow (not computing wise, people-wise) today.
And you joined just to post this?
The Senate ProTem is typically the oldest senator from the majority side. Its an honorary position. Often, they have difficulty remembering their own name, let alone knowing what's going on. I'd be in favor of moving the majority leader into that succession slot.
THANKS!
I even searched 'inauguration' and didn't find it.
Sorry. I used to be a member a while back. Lost my password, etc. Have lurked for years. Wanted to get back "on board". Thanks.
