Acronym du Jour: GWOT (Global War on Terrorism)

I realize I'm behind the times and this has been in the lexicon for a while, but I just encountered it the other day, and it made me laugh out loud.
Since it's pronounced "G-Watt," or "G-Wot," rather than "Gwaht," my first thought was a gangsta rapper with an affinity for electric light bulbs, but maybe it could just be Tony Blair's pet name for his mate, the prez, based on George's habit of speaking with his mouth full.
