  @ebertchicago I don't care if they called it "Operation Hunt For Red Desert Storm-Tober" as long as they're going in.

  @ebertchicago In Tom Clancy's defense, his titles are much cooler. #opnamefail

  @ebertchicago Yeah, I don't see what's wrong with Operation Fire Missiles At Libya.

  @ebertchicago It's inappropriate if it doesn't sound like a Clancy novel.
