Politico Gets It Way Wrong On Conservatives' Complaints About Diversity Czar Lloyd

In yesterday's More czars on conservative hit list, the Politico's Lisa Lerer states "conservatives have accused (Mark) Lloyd, appointed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as the agency’s Chief Diversity officer in late July, of secretly wanting to reinstate the controversial Fairness Doctrine."

This is not at all accurate. We at the Media Research Center broke the news of Lloyd’s FCC gig (created just for him just the way the “green jobs czar” slot was for the recently dispatched conspiracy-addled Truther-Communist Van Jones). And we specifically stated that he had "no need for the mis-named 'Fairness' Doctrine." From that essay:

I was disappointed with Rush Limbaugh today. He should have spent his entire show following up on Van Jones ouster and the other czars. He should have been supporting Glenn Beck and pounding on Obama’s army of radicals. It was perfect timing for it. Instead, Rush was MIA.

VERY disappointing.

0bama has subverted the Constitution's envisioned structure of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments with the creation of these czarist or commissar posts.

The US voters' representatives in Congress have not been allowed the opportunity to question these czars' credentials before open committee. Keeping the Congress and the US citizenry in the dark (note: opposite of transparency) about important, Department-head appointees is part of the Constitutional protections that are being subverted. IMHO, these subversions of the Constitution violate BHO's Presidential Oath to uphold the Constitution, and are therefore impeachable transgressions on his part.

Congress specifically authorizes certain monies to be spent by these Departments, a function of money spending which has at least partly been overtaken by these czars, which weaks the protections we have under the Constitution.

That an avowed Communist with stronger anti-US allegiances than pro-US, such as Van Jones, can take over the money-disbursing reins of the US Government is wholly against the best-laid plans of those signers of the Constitution. That 0bama has in considered fashion done this shows Barry Soetero to be an enemy of the Constitution.

And that enemy of the Constitution needs to resign his office more quickly than Van Jones did.

A media czar who praises Chavez’s repression of free press.

Politico and MSM get it wrong on purpose. The truth is too damning.
