Scene: Energy Czar Carol Browner and the Emperor, in the doorway entering the Cabinet Room for the UNEP teleconference.
Caption: Carol Browner, Energy Czar
Browner:
Mr. President, Before we dial in, can I ask you about our working environment? You keep adding more and more czars and we’re completely out of office space. Frankly, we’re crammed in like czardines, sir.
Emperor:
Special Master Browner, I appreciate your predicament but we’re still working on the White House expansion project and with all the historic places red tape, and all the green upgrades, we’re a long way from “Shovel Ready”.
Browner:
But sir, there’s so much overlap with czar duties, isn’t this many czars environmentally unfriendly?
Emperor: (multiple panels of him, zooming in closer with each panel)…
(Points at her, silently turns away. Turns around and comes back…)
Special Master Browner, don’t make me angry, you wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.
I’m going to put you on notice, there’s no such thing as too many czars. I need somewhere to place appointees who would be unable to muster Congressional approval.
Ask not how your government can grow you, ask how you can grow your government.
