Always Thinking Continuity

Defense Secratary will become prez if everybody else gets blown up tomorrow

"Here’s something you don’t even want to think about. It comes by way of a statement from White House Press Secretary Dana Perino.
“In order to ensure continuity of government, Defense Secretary Robert Gates has been designated by the outgoing administration, with the concurrence of the incoming administration, to serve as the designated successor during Inauguration Day, Tuesday, January 20th.”
The “designated successor” become president in case of an Inauguration Day disaster that takes the lives of everybody else in the succession plan.
Where does that put Gates during the festivities?
“Undisclosed location,” says Perino."
