Originally, the title Czar (derived from Caesar) meant Emperor in the European medieval sense of the term, that is, a ruler who claims the same rank as a Roman emperor. The title of Czar is being used by the President of the United States, to turn himself into a new Caesar.
Our founding fathers wanted the to protect the United States against too much power being placed in one person so they built checks and balances into the constitution. Presidential appointees reported to the chief executive but with the advice and consent of congress. Appointees were approved by Senate, and once approved had to answer the questions of both houses.
While other president's have appointed "Czars" none have appointed the number of Czar's that Obama has named-at last count we are up to 28. The reason for all of the Czar appointments is to circumvent the Constitution and create and imperial Presidency. These Czars do not have to be approved by the Senate, nor do they have to answer questions posed by congress. President Obama creates these Czars to hide policy and to back away from the pledge of transparency he made during the early days of his presidency.

Regulatory czar. Obama wants to fill this post with Cass Sunstein, the Harvard law professor who has suggested "that animals should be permitted to bring suit, with human beings as their representatives," against people in our civil court system. Sunstein would likely do a fine job of regulating the country into paralysis.
The biggest threat to free speech being "czarred and fettered" is from this author of the books, Republic.com and Nudge. Forget the animals.
