Coming attractions:

For those of you with access to Turner Classic Movies on cable or satellite, tomorrow night [Saturday, 13 August, 8:00 EDT] they will be airing "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" as part of their "Essentials" series. I urge you to watch it, as it will explain why I obsessively cited it after Osama bin Laden got his comeuppance.

Oscar™ winning director Kathryn Bigelow—“The Hurt Locker”—is currently working on the remake, featuring Barack Obama in the Jimmy Stewart role, and SEAL Team 6 as John Wayne. Her production company is being given unprecedented access to one of the most highly-classified missions in modern American history, and the movie is scheduled to open in October 2012, just before the November presidential elections.

Did I not tell you this was going to happen?

If you're too skeptical, or cheap, to rent a DVD of "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance," then catch it for free on TCM tomorrow night. Keep in mind my comparison with the Bobama/bin Laden situation, and it'll scare the hell out of you.
