Brad Pitt, ‘Zombie Congress’ and ‘Thelma and Louise economics’

This is a brief post to note an almost certainly meaningless connection of Brad Pitt to both zombies (World War Z) and the movie “Thelma and Louise”.

Both are being used as metaphors related to the so-called fiscal cliff sequester problem – See Congressman Jim Cooper’s zombie congress which next week will resume Sen. Mitch McConnell’s “Thelma and Louise economics“:

I would also note Brad Pitt related to Nazi‘s in “Inglorious Bastards” and to animal rights terrorism in “12 Monkeys” and to statistics over instinct in “Moneyball”. These are all related to zombies – “Nate Silver is probably a witch”!!!)
