The lives for former Presidents, on 24

WARNING: THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS OF LAST NIGHT’S EPISODE.

I bet I was not the only one watching last night’s episode to predict in the seconds before it happened that Martha was going to stab her ex-husband, the former President of the United States. It was pretty obvious, they were sitting in the living room waiting and Martha had just returned from the kitchen where she was going berserk using a sharp knife to cut up whatever fruit she was going to serve to her ex-husband and to Aaron, the former Secret Service agent now turned boyfriend. Then the camera zoomed in on the knife that she left on the plate in the living room and before you knew it she drove that knife into the right chest of Charles Logan.

But I am going to bet that I am the first one on the blogosphere to point out that in the world of 24, bad things tend to happen to current and former Presidents. David Palmer finished out his one term and met an assassin’s bullet with his forehead. John Keeler was on board Air Force One when it was shot down by a missile from a Stealth Bomber. You already know about what happened to Logan and Wayne Palmer is currently in critical condition after getting blown up by an assassin’s bomb.

I personally don’t like the current Vice President on the show and am hoping that Noah Daniels will meet the same fate. As a matter of fact, I think if the Vice President were to die, more lives will definitely be saved. Now why dothose words sound so familiar?
