Is there a plan B or C

1. At this point, I think it should happen.

They will try to find a way to destroy everything regardless. Might as well go down in flames.

2. There is no Plan B. Any Possible Plan B Requires a Friendly Supreme Court

Paying the ransom does not guarantee anything at all, but what other options are there?

4. A.Capitulate quite a bit......B.Capitulate a lot.

I suspect he is going to make the French envious.

5. Obama invokes the 14th Amendment?

Of course that would be like throwing a bomb into the flame fest that's Congress these days....
