I think that if this had been done 5 years ago, when George W Bush was a sitting president, there may have been some legitimate concern about depicting his execution/assassination in a piece of mass entertainment. I might have a similar concern if it was done with Barack Obama now. I don't have the same concern if it was done with Clinton or Bush now, and I don't think I would have the same concern if it was done 5 years from now (yes, I am being optimistic, shoot me) with Obama. -- TV or Not TV ....
