Lamest Term of the Week: "Car Czar"
I mean really, we all get what the 'Car Czar' will be the federal official to lord over the U.S Auto Industry, but coin a better title for crying out loud. 'Auto Pimp', 'Car King', 'Grease Monkey Guy', or whatever, but 'Car Czar'? come on.
The job won’t be an easy one. Reuters points out the “Car Czar” will have to deal with angry creditors, fearful suppliers and an entrenched auto union. Then there’s the job of motivating CEOs who will be making a whopping $1 a year.
But the term 'Car Czar' just kills me, its horrible. Its a fun play on words, hah hah, very funny, now fix the damn industry and come up with a better term.
Tsar or czar occasionally spelled csar or tzar in English, is a Slavonic term designating certain monarchs.
Originally, the title Czar (derived from Caesar) meant Emperor in the European medieval sense of the term, that is, a ruler who has the same rank as a Roman or Byzantine emperor (or, according to Byzantine ideology, the most elevated position adjacent to the one held by the Byzantine monarch) due to recognition by another emperor or a supreme ecclesiastical official (the Pope or the Ecumenical Patriarch).
Occasionally, the word could be used to designate other, non-Christian, supreme rulers. In Russia and Bulgaria the imperial connotations of the term were blurred with time and, by the 19th century, it had come to be viewed as an equivalent of King.[2][3]
The modern languages of these countries use it as a general term for a monarch.[4][5] For example, the title of the Bulgarian monarchs in the 20th century was not generally interpreted as imperial.
