If I un-compound that pretend-German word, it works out to something like “supreme imperial war assault leader.”

This would take good-cop, bad-cop to a whole new level.

Pardon my ignorance, Jules, but are you alluding to any specific established position within the Executive Branch when you talk about “War Czar” as “supreme command”? Or am I just hopelessly out of the loop of some in-joke? Just curious.

As much as I dislike having any Clinton back in power, you might have a point there. An eyeball-less Ahmadinejad is a comforting thought. As is a newly castrated Vladimir.

Damn it, Captain, I’m just a tabloid scribbler, not William Burroughs. I dinna think the dilithium crystals can handle it!

“she’s been strapped down”

It would have been wrong to have recast that and worked it in as “strapped on,” but I would have respected you more if you’d found a way.
