Really, this is not unlike what Roosevelt did when he became President. Just that he didn’t bury them quite as deep. He kept most of his same henchmen, just changed their titles, buacracies(sp), etc.
Pretty much the same except Obama's selected Czars seem as much fascist as Communist. FDR's closest aides were Communist agents reporting directly to the Soviet Communist International (Comintern.) They included Alger Hiss and Harry Dexter White. While Harry Hopkins, his closest adviser who actually lived in the White House, hasn't been proven as a Soviet agent, the facts surrounding him are pretty damning HARRY HOPKINS This piece is definitely worth a read.
