Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.), the longest serving Democratic senator, is criticizing President Obamas appointment of White House czars to oversee federal policy, saying these executive positions amount to a power grab by the executive branch.
In a letter to Obama on Wednesday, Byrd complained about Obamas decision to create White House offices on health reform, urban affairs policy, and energy and climate change. Byrd said such positions can threaten the Constitutional system of checks and balances. At the worst, White House staff have taken direction and control of programmatic areas that are the statutory responsibility of Senate-confirmed officials.

O wait, he's a dem so the irony won't be mentioned.
No, just wait... for this heresy old coot byrdie will get hammered as a old grumpy Klansman!
Following Hitler’s execellent example of how to become a totalitarian dictator!
Robert Sheets Byrd is fourth in line to the presidency.
He just wishes it was his power.
Byrd had better be careful; he may be deemed to have used all his health care chits by the health care czar.
Egads. If even somebody as clueless as Byrd is a little nervous about Barry, that’s saying something.
Is this Byrd seeing clearly? Unbelievable that he should say this about a fellow dimocrat.
D on D chaos is always stimulating for the popcorn industry!
Go Sheets, maybe get Burris to help!
Behold the Liberal Nest of Rattlesnakes. May they eat each other.
Might I remind you, this is exactly how Hugo Chavez operates. His cabinet people are noting more than public whipping boys, meanwhile the czars behind the curtain run the country. For more on Chavez, watch the Frontline video online, "The Hugo Chavez SHOW" for how it works.
Byrd is a Democrat ... right? Probably a Klansman first, Democrat second.
I wonder what Byrd is so worried about. He won’t survive four years of Obama. He won’t have to live under these changes.
Besides all that, he lives in the bubble of being a Senator.
I got to admit I’m surprised the old geyser is doing this. I have to give him credit where credit is due. Lord knows I have hammered him in the past.
What I was thinking too. Better watch your back Senator, you aren’t being politcally correct. How dare you question the messiah.
I agree! With this liberal raising the hue and cry of Marxist Obama’s moves, people had better take note and be prepared for confrontations.
Egad, the old bat’s actually right about something for once! But then even a crazed senile old racist has the sense to see that the last thing we need in government is more people with lots of power and no accountability.

Re: Your concerns
Shut yo mouf, white cracker.
I won, remember?
All you care about is money. This town deserves a better class of criminal. And I'm gonna give it to them.
Doesn’t matter if he’s Prez...Sheets don’t like “colored” people
