Do we have a genuine executive branch take-over with a CONGRESS that no one in the house or senate is DOING anything about?
How many Czars can uhbama assign?
What is going on....we have people names CZARS who are avowed communists and other dirtbags...who are only responsive to the president??????????
Do we have a dictator or a president?
I think we'd better get a few CZAR questions before the town hall meetings, as well as health care.
I am getting genuinely freaked by these CZARS now that I know about the history of the 'green CZAR'. I am sick.
Pretty soon we will see BILL AYERS as CZAR of all children between the ages of five and twelve.
The Great Lakes czar heads an organization that wants to remove all the dams in the great lakes basin. They seem to want to remove all signs of human habitation from within sight any water in the region.
We need to have one thread where we put all of our czar investigating. Like the BC thread that has over 9000 posts. That way it is all in once place and Freepers are more likely to add to it.
The taxpayer.
and do they have real POWER over us?
Well, I think they speak for the President who has all the power of his predecessors PLUS, seemingly, the power to hire and fire employees of what used to be General Motors.
Can they ditate LAW without the vetting of congress.
Not in a constitutionally limited republic. Do you still have one of those?

Seemingly.
How many Czars can uhbama assign?
With this congress, as many as he wants.

A coup? A communist takeover from within? Take your pick.
Do we have a dictator or a president?
Well, you elected a slick talking President with NO experience and NO resume other than a community organizer. He probably sees himself as a dictator, although there are constitutional checks and balances.

Good luck with that. The representatives are afraid to face their voters right now.

And well you should be.
Pretty soon we will see BILL AYERS as CZAR of all children between the ages of five and twelve.
Umm, isn't he now?
Senator robert Byrd,the top-ranking Democrat in the Senate wrote President Obama a letter saying that these czars are unconstitutional. President Obama’s “czar strategy” is an unprecedented power grab centralizing authority in the White House, outside congressional oversight and in violation of the Constitution.
As of last week, Czar Kenneth Feinberg has the authority to set the pay scale for executives at any company receiving government money (and how many aren’t, these days?). Czar Feinberg has the power to say that someone’s pay is excessive, and to make companies cut that pay until the czar is pleased.
Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.), the longest serving Democratic senator, is criticizing President Obama’s appointment of White House czars to oversee federal policy, saying these executive positions amount to a power grab by the executive branch.
