Somebody alert the Guinness Book of World Records

romanovsIf only this was an Olympic event!

With yesterday’s naming of Border Czar Alan Bersin, the Obama administration has by any reasonable reckoning passed the Romanov Dynasty in the production of czars. The Romanovs ruled Russia from 1613 with the ascension of Michael I through the abdication of Czar Nicholas II in 1917. During that time, they produced 18 czars. While it is harder to exactly count the number of Obama administration czars, with yesterday’s appointment it seems fair to say it is now certainly in excess of 18.

I think the real question to ask now is: who’s Rasputin?

Via Memeorandum.

    Are you also metaphorically imagining a similar Obamanov ending?

    You gotta watch out for those high-velocity ballots.
