As of last week, Czar Kenneth Feinberg has the authority to set the pay scale for executives at any company receiving government money...

I doubt it will stop at the executive level.

It’s about time those bastards wake up. Better do it soon or they will find that congress is just as useless as SCOTUS and all the power will be in the WH under King Sortoro.

Hey Senator Byrd...are you going to do something about it? or just write letters?

So much for Byrd’s letter. He wrote it in February. How many CZARs have been appointed by our leader since then?

For years the Left pounded us by saying President Bush worked outside the constitution and took freedoms away.

Yet here you have a closet communist who wraps himself in the American flag yet rules like a czar himself, appointing tsaraviches to carry out his laws, ensuring the serfs do what they’re told.

These czars, however, are directly dictating policy, impacting millions of lives in the way that few assistant secretaries or deputy undersecretaries do.

Bobby is just annoyed that his power has been diminished! He’s concerned with the well-being of Bobby, not the well-being of the nation.

If we’re going to have czars, why don’t we just do the right thing and have a Czar? I’m sure the heir to the Romanov dynasty isn’t doing anything, and the services for the anointing of a Christian Emperor can still be found in old service books.

Since Washington seems intent on scrapping the Constitution anyway, we might as well do it right and decide that the Founders got it wrong and hereditary monarchy is the way to go.

I’m fairly sure we’d have better government with H.H. Prince Nicholas Romanov as Czar with with Barack Hussein Obama as tyrant.

Apparently Marxist Obama (IIRC a constitutional law prof) never actually had a firm grasp on this Constitution thingie (the one that he's pledged protect to defend, no less).

Stepping back a bit, one gets the worry that as Mister Obama operates farther and farther from our laws and traditions, signs of entropy and chaos are already visible from his (alleged} administration.

I am not a defender of Senator Byrd, but I do revere the constitution as I have read he says he does.


http://www.princeton.edu/~snkatz/papers/snkatzConstitution.pdf
(note- article critical of Byrd but credits him with respect for the Constitution)

“In his 2006 Constitution Day message Senator Byrd reminded us that he carries a copy of the document with him “wherever I go,” and asked “but what about you? What do you know about the Constitution? How much of it do you carry around with you? Why should you want to know about your Constitution?”xxviii His answer was to refer to Ben Franklin, who reminded the Framers that they had created a “Republic, if you can keep it.”xxix And adhering to the structures and values of the Constitution, he argued, is the way to preserve the republic.

Our Constitution embodies the vision of the Framers, their dream of freedom, supported by the genius of practical structure which has come to be known as the checks and balances and separation of powers. But we cannot defend and protect this dream if we are ignorant of the Constitution’s history and how it works. Ignorance is ultimately the worst enemy of a people who want to be free.xxx

Education is then, for Byrd, the key to the preservation of the republic, historical training is the key to education, and understanding of the Founding Era is the key to United States history.”

ZERO has probably already done as much as he is going to do in response to Byrd’s letter ...the same as he did with the previous letter the old man sent to the whitey house ...IGNORE IT.

From my recollection the last letter Byrd sent to the whitey house was about the ZERO once again overstepping his bounds and doing things the Senate and House should control ...he didn’t even dignify the letter with an acknowledgment according to accounts I have read.

0bama has been trampling the Constitution since his college days, and has not changed his stripes at this point. He has no allegiance to the accumulated history of this venerable republic, and no allegiance to the laws he swore to uphold. He is ineligible to hold the office he occupies and is perpetrating on the American people the greatest political fraud in our nation’s history.
Yet, through it all, he is still slogging toward the marxist abyss and dragging the US with him.
The fact that he is using ‘czars’ outside of the Constitution should surprise no one. He is above the law. Just ask him.

It’s time to take back the country.

***Congress did not give Czar Feinberg this authority.***

And it would be Constitutional if Congress had?

***These czars were few and far between, and rarely did anything that seriously ruffled any feathers. But President Obama has taken this to an unprecedented level, to the point where these appointments are dangerous to our constitutional regime.***

So it’s okay to be a little unconstitutional, but not a lot unconstitutional. Got it.
