Well gee Mr. liberal apologist, "green jobs" got $60 billion in stimulus funding that Van the Commie controlled. So exactly how much tax money does something have to get before it's no longer merely "symbolic"?
Thank you Talisker for your comment. Congress never approved the appointment of Czars or ex-officio cabinet members so the so-called Czars have no authority to administer funds appropriated by Congress. The Czars are a high profile jobs program meant to pander to certain constituencies. My guess is that they are considered more like consultants.
