Apparently...

radio talk show hostess Laura Ingraham sobered up long enough to call into the Imus in the Morning program and pose the rhetorical question "What is Plan B"?
Assuming of course the current round stimulus spending fails...
Well Laura, as we used to say on the playground back in 1970 "Ah hate ta clue ya" but there has NEVER been a "Plan B" in the whole of American history.
Washington had no back up options if the seige of Yorktown went south...Lincoln had no recourse if Gettysburg was a cropper, FDR conceived no back up scheme should the New Deal fail and Kennedy and Johnson were shit outa luck if Jim Crow made a comeback.
You see my point, from the first hour of the republic it has always been "conquer or die, all or nothing at all"...real Americans clearly don't make contingency plans. They put everything on 13-black and wait for the house to run for cover.
Ghod help us this seems to work 90% of the time for some damn reason history and logic flop over on their backs and cry "uncle" before the US of A's enduring heedlessness.
As for Laura though, she is whining the poor dear, her electoral and authentic hangover hasn't departed yet leaving her impotently dreaming of some bigger badder national catastrophe that'll sweep her vile rabble back into power.
Don't hold yer breath on that Laura....
