What’s a Csar?

British for Czar or Tsar?

Four years is all Obambi is going to get, at best. There are too many Dems who are chomping at the bit for 2012. Barry is a placeholder.

Silly, boy, Obie doesn't plan on making any decisions. We will be governed by committee. If the committee chooses poorly the committee goes under the bus. Presto, new committee.

Nope. But there is precious little that they do understand.

Will he call it the "Politburo?"

I’m telling you, with the Clinton retreads (think power family grab), the Kennedy’s (same power family deal), the “Czar”’s (think Cardinals and such) dancing around the newly annointed One, I am having Tudor years flashing through my head.

Except they don’t use the ax, now they use airplanes and suicides using 2 bullets to the back of the head.

Frankly, it should read:

I think it’s the same as a Tzar.

I honestly don’t think so. Do a google search for Csar and you won’t find anything to do with Czars. And Dictionary.com, which usually gives British variants, says it stands for Combat Search and Rescue.

Sounds like time for a letter to the managing editor of the Telegraph ;-)

“she’ gone”

Yeah, but she won’t be trouble as a senator anymore. Wasn’t that the plan?

Actually, Tzar is apparently another variant, although I’ve never actually seen it used anywhere.

But I think Csar is bizarre. You regularly find spelling errors on the front page of the NY Times, and I think maybe the British press is succumbing to the same disease. Decades of Labour Party dumbing down of the schools can’t be helping.

Hear, hear!

The purge has only just begun. Wait for his Geheimstadtspolizei to ascend
upon the the constitutionally law abiding folk of this land.

They WILL have a fight upon their hands.

Remember......we have the guns!

Deutscher, out

OBama NEEDS these Czars, because he, himself, is totally clueless.

“Czars” who are not cabinet members, and not subject to Senate confirmation, are unconstitutional as a violation of separation of powers.

But that constitution thing is like so yesterday, why bother with it?
