Dear God, I hope they vacay!
Here's the alternative:
On Dec 21, 2012, Obama will have had a little over a month to stew in his humiliating, crushing and unexpected defeat at the hands of the American people.
Hell still be Commander in Chief.
Hell still have the nuclear football. Just sitting there. Staring at him. Taunting him. Daring him...
One would have to pray the military would disobey the order (be it unlawful) at that point. A prayer for such to be the case.
While i don't think that even Obambi would do that, I would not be surprised in the least if muslim bastage were to do something to cause an incident in the Persian Gulf that would spike the price of gas, tank the economy and burden the incoming president with a hot fire war across the Middle East. In fact I full expect that to happen.
