What's In a Name? How About Some Gravity?

I know we've all been following the whole "Fast and Furious" gunrunning scandal-in-the-making, and it's troubling, but I can't help snarking at it too.  Look, here's this disastrous thing, and the best name its perpetrators could come up with is the title of a totally crappy movie?  It's like the entire "Odyssey Dawn" Libya enterprise (about which the mainstream media seems to have conveniently forgotten) that has, as the Cine-Sib notes, a name that basically sounds like the stage name of a stripper or the title of a Twilight book.  I'm not really sure what my point is ... but it's something to do with the yet-unsharpened notion that the juxtaposition of serious, even deadly, business with silly, puerile, wannabe-cool names -- all followed by messy, prolonged repercussions -- is some kind of accidental metaphor for today's political leadership class.
