    Lots of interesting stuff in that read like:

    "“Beginning during the Cold War and continuing up to the present day, FEMA’s Central Locater System tracks the whereabouts of all the officials who are in the presidential line of succession, 24 hours a day, ensuring the government is ready to whisk them away from their regular lives at a moment’s notice. They work closely with a special team of Air Force helicopter pilots who practice in the skies over Washington daily, ready to drop onto helipads, well-groomed lawns, the National Mall, and even sports fields if necessary, to ensure the survival of those chosen few.”

    That's BS and a waste of money. There's 3 or 4 members in PC's House of Politics that could single handedly run this country better than all those leaders put together. Just ask them. :ROFLMAO:
