Following up on this morning’s post about Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.) calling for a hearing on “44 czars,” I asked McHenry’s spokesman Brock McCleary where that number came from.
“We’re using a variety of sources and finding everyone who has been referred to as a ‘czar,’” said McCleary. “It would be appropriate for the WH to release a formal list.”
In the meantime, McClearly provided me with two sources that McHenry’s office is using to build a czar list: this list from Politico, and this thread from the conservative web forum FreeRepublic.com. The FreeRepublic thread begins with a list from the conservative AmericanDaughter.com, which calls the appointment of czars “the beginnings of dictatorship” and includes several administration officials who’ve actually been confirmed by the Senate.

FR is at the forefront of credibility... again!
I guess Obama wants us to compete globally, that’s why he’s hired more Czars than Russia had during the Romanov era.
Well, he said he’d create jobs.
Why does he call them Czars? Commisars would be a more appropriate name with this guy.
These Czars are : Commissar(s)...
n : an official of the Communist Party who was assigned to teach party principles to a military unit
What we need is a deck of cards of the 52 most wanted Marxists, czars, moombats and hateamerica officials in the govt. Then we can slowly eliminate them from Govt.
I bet they would be hot sellers. Wish I had the talent to do it.
Yes but every liberal nutcase will now sign up new accounts and post racist items and attack personally people here to drive credibility down.
Check the dates of users posted and be careful of newbies.
Give “em” Hell Patrick!!!! He’s my Rep and so far he hasn’t drunk the Washington Cool aid.
