I have to admit, I hadn't really investigated this whole Czar thing until the Van Jones hoopla. Look at that list! Again,sometimes I think this is all an SNL skit, but it's not. How can we survive when these radical commie wackos are walking around DC and the White House without Security Clearances? (of which none could get). I didn't even know we had a "weapons czar". Now is there any doubt we have a Communist Manchurian Candidate in the White House? Strong commie, Anti-American, anti Defense and anti-Gun thread. . I hope Glenn Beck tackles each one of these people one by one. Pass it one folks. Something every day. . .

Ashton Carter needs some good luck confiscating firearms from American citizens.

There will be lots of dead people if that attempt is made, and the vast majority of those shot dead, hanged or burned with boiling tar will not be Americans.

There has to be a lot of dirt and skeletons in the closet on these guys. It’s time to start digging it up and sending it into Drudge, Breitbart Fox, Beck etc... Let’s take them down.

21. Pay Czar: Kenneth Feinberg - Chief of Staff to TED KENNEDY. Lawyer, who got rich off the 911 victims payoffs.

From Wikipedia:

"September 11 Victim Compensation Fund

"Appointed by Attorney General John Ashcroft to be Special Master of the fund, Feinberg worked for 33 months entirely pro bono."

Dunno. Good point. Has he been officially "approved" yet with all the hoopla going on about him?

No fan of #4 but to correct what was written.
He was U.S. Attorney for San Diego for several years.
When he was border czar under Clinton, hate to say this but “Operation Gatekeeper” was keeping out some illegals
and they were going after some here.
Much of the problems continued but at least something
was being done as little as it was.
7 yrs. S.D. Superintendent of Schools. can’t really say a failed one.
He was later same for the state of Calif.

#1 - Richard Holbrooke was never Governor of New Mexico. I doubt he could find it on a map.

Amen to that! I hope they Really investigate each one of them. I just don't believe this has happened. Good thing my parents and grandparents are dead. Each one would immediately have a heart attack if they saw this list. I'm trying to hang in there. . .

I think I remember that there are White House Czars and some Czars in various agencies. I have heard the number 100 or so mentioned, I think.

I wonder if he is a Czar in the Department of Education. That could be why he is not on this list.

My only comment to that is who put this in Wikipedia. . 33 months pro bono . prove it Kenny.

I dont want to get to know them...

Well OK I suppose it wouldnt hurt to know their names...

be more sporting to say “Goodbye (John, Peter, Susie, Betty etc)” as they go out the door of the White House...

Do I know where Hell is?
Hell is in hello (Czars)
Heaven is in “Goodbye forever
It’s time for you to go”

Whoops. I spotted an error in the first posting: Holbrooke is an eastern Elitist. I doubt he has ever BEEN to New Mexico. He has prowled around the edges of foreign policy in Democratic administrations. Clinton used him in the former Yugoslavia crisis. He is supposed to be a big gun on Afghanistan, but, in crafting their surrender rationale, Biden and Emmanuel have pushed him offstage. I am sure he is pro-abotion, homosexual marriage: they all are.

Who is going to do the confiscating? Most cops I know are ex military or still in the reserves.

I don’t know of any military that would do it either.

Everything I have heard about Feinberg is that the overwhelming majority of the 9/11 victim families thought that he did an amazingly good job, even the ones who were initially against him. I heard him speak about it a couple of times on C-SPAN and he came across as a very impressive individual tackling a very tough job. I doubt that Ashcroft authorized him to get rich off the victim’s families. He deserved to be paid well but I’ve never heard anything about him taking advantage of his position except in your list.
