You never know when Command in Chief Stupid will pop up, say something like "This sucker's going down!" and steal your thunder.

Or Congressional Republicans might squall something like, "We had a rescue party, but the Speaker talked mean to us and we fell out of our saddles!"

I am worried about the pellets I paid for that are not in my garage yet.
