I've recently discovered the show 24. Chase and I have watched the first seven seasons on DVD in the past month or so. (I admit - that's a lot of TV!) So here's where this has all led: I was thinking Jack Bauer would make a good president! We sure wouldn't have to worry about terrorists any more! We wouldn't have to worry about weasels like Eric Holder either. Can you imagine the Attorney General telling Jack that we need to provide terrorists with Miranda rights? It would be fun to see Jack take Holder by the throat and slam him up against the wall!
We also would be good to go on the Second Amendment. Jack would be all for us owning guns to protect ourselves and our property. Jobs wouldn't be a problem because someone has to bury all those dead terrorists. I bet it would only take Jack a few days to find Osama ben Laden! He'd get Chloe on those surveillance satellites and she would find him in no time!
It would be cool to hear him address the nation in those growling low hush tones he uses. "My fellow Americans, I'm about to sneak into President Ahmadinejad's bedroom and cut off his fingers!
I know there are many of you who will feel like I've just been watching too much 24 - But I disagree. I think I've watched too much political news coverage. The way these guys are handling things has me in the mood for someone who can ride in and turn things around. (In just 24 hours!)
