Fight! Fight!

So you're the one!

Solution: Buy more stuff and tick off the guy behind you. You're welcome.

My immediate thought was either Deanna Durbin or Joan Fontaine. Since the USPS is deliberately targeting a fairly young demographic with this thing, you'll get a pop icon who is somewhat politically active, for instance, Lady Gaga. Or (shudder) Justin Bieber.

According to the USPS, make your suggestions at http://www.facebook.com/USPSStamps or http://twitter.com/#!/uspsstamps

That sounds like the plot of A Star Is Born.

A closed fist and ample force (so as not to be confused with a fist bump).

Someone could go into business selling ice cold beverages to that crowd of thousands  in hot 'lanta.

Ha! Anderson Cooper pretends to talk on the phone to avoid drunk fans.

1. Biden has not done anything so gaffe-tastic as to make his termination an obvious move in the mind of Democrat voters. Changing horses in midstream would only bring Obama's campaigning skills into question even among his most loyal followers. 
2. The President has taken too many voters for granted; he hasn't really courted Hilary supporters and PUMAs. I'm not sure if enough of them will hold their noses and vote for him even with Clinton in the 2nd slot.
3. If the Obama/Clinton team wins reelection you can make book on how many days it will be before Obama becomes mysteriously incapacitated.

• You reminded me of the applause and noise heard during the last four bars of The National Anthem at just about any outdoor event. It's just disrespectful.    [Which reminds me of the melisma and all around verbal gymnastics of many who sing it.]

• Have you ever heard people applaud in the cinema at the end of a movie? Why do they do that? It's not like Penelope Cruz is going to leap off the screen and kiss them for the ovation.

Con-Con?

I enjoy the name and the Charlie's Angels poses.

You're not alone in having withdrawal symptoms.

Perhaps not. However, the release date of the movie -regardless of content- could help Obama's campaign by reminding voters of a significant incident in which the sitting President did something right.

If nothing else, pundits will have a current pop culture reference to tie in with the 2012 campaign. It's not dissimilar to the Colbert and Stewart faux rallies before the 2010 election.

Then again, perhaps a release date close to election was a condition of the White House's cooperation with the filmmakers.

I've never heard of this show or the actress, but a quick google search of her very public drug career stretches far into the past.  I was reading the same story, basically, with different dates. How is she not locked up?

Ah! Diane, you beat me posting this story by about 30 minutes.

About that "October Surprise" movie, Rep. Peter T. King (NY, R) has asked the Defense Department and the CIA for an investigation into the Oval office's cooperation with Hollywood on this incident. King is concerned about “ongoing leaks of classified information regarding sensitive military operations.”

He's sticking it to Obama. I say go for it.
