Be Prepared

News has now broken that before his death, Osama Bin Laden tried to organize attacks to kill President Obama.  Administration officials say that the threat was never serious (the plan was to attack Air Force One and aircraft holding David Patraeus as they took off from bases in Afghanistan and Pakistan).  Bin Laden's reasons for the assassination plot in his own words:

“The reason for concentrating on them,” the al-Qaeda leader explained to his top lieutenant, “is that Obama is the head of infidelity and killing him automatically will make [Vice President] Biden take over the presidency. . . . Biden is totally unprepared for that post, which will lead the U.S. into a crisis. As for Petraeus, he is the man of the hour . . . and killing him would alter the war’s path” in Afghanistan.
