Wow -- excellent casting, Brian! Sadly, you're probably right that this will become the "ATPM" for the current generation.

Brian - Great casting and plot line. However, you forgot to cast the "Democrat heroes" in the story that get to the bottom of the plot:

Sen Minority Leader Harry Reid - Harrison Ford
Chuck Shumer - George Clooney
Hillary Clinton - animatronic robot (more lifelike than the real thing!)
Nancy Pelosi - Jennifer "Runaway Bride" Wilbanks
John Kerry - Fred Gwynne (sure, he died in 1993, but that was the last time John Kerry had a pulse)
