Obama has moved swiftly to concentrate power in the White House, bypassing the review of our elected representatives in Congress for most of the posts called "czars." --- quote from a blog post - August 3, 2009
It’s almost an epidemic – no, not the Swine Flu as mentioned in the title of this piece. Swine Flu is preferable to what has been happening for weeks now. President Barack Hussein Obama is on a binge of another kind – a kind of rapid fire action as he appoints “czars” one after another.
Every president in recent decades has appointed a few individuals known as “czars” in his administration. But with Obama it is an obsession or an addiction in his mad quest for power. There has never been anything like this in the history of our republic.
Here’s the horrible reality of this thing: First, these people are personally chosen by the president and answer only to him – get the picture? They will simply be Obama puppets as he extends his quest for power in order to control every facet of our lives possible. Second, they require no confirmation by the Senate as is the case with the secretaries in the president’s cabinet. Third, if they are subpoenaed and come before a senate hearing, they can claim executive privilege and do not have to give any answers to probing questions that will be asked!
And of course these people will be paid well for their “work” (term used very loosely here) plus a lot of plush “perks” also – that’s the way it is when you work in the upper levels of government. Salaries alone will range from over $158,000 to $172,000 – that’s a lot of cabbage for shuffling papers around and trying to look important!
Now, are you ready? Be sure you are sitting down as you look at the Obama list of "royalty" in the czar connection!
