When the a newly elected President of the United States takes the oath of office he swears to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies both forgein and domestic. I stongly believe the our current President has not kept his oath as evidence by agreeing to pull our defensive weapons out of Europe, leaving our Allies for now open to attack and leaving us defenseless against our enemies.He has apologized for our history to the world.He has not acted Presidential. He is now the first President to be on the United Nations General Assembly (I think this is correct). My question to him is where does his alligence lie. There are still questions unanswered regarding his place of birth. The longer we as a nation to take action, the more entrenched he becomes. Hopefull the people of this great country will speak loud enough for their voices to be heard at the next election in 2010.

“Yet agreement that planning is necessary, together with the inability of democratic assemblies to produce a plan, will evoke stronger and stronger demands that the government or some single individual should be given powers to act on on their own responsibility. The belief is becoming more and more widespread that, if things are to get done, the responsible authorities must be freed from the fetters of democratic procedure.”

#93 Jettboy:

Not to quibble with your list, but some of the “czars” you list occupy statutorily created offices and were confirmed by the Senate, so they really can’t be compared with the other “czars.” For example:

# 10-Gil Kerlikowske, Director, Office of National Drug Control Policy; established by the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988 and subsequent legislation. Kerlikowske was confirmed by the Senate in May 2009.

#20-Dennis Blair, Director of National Intelligence; established by Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004. Blair was confirmed by the Senate in January 2009.

# 23-Cass Sunstein, Director, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs; established by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980. Sunstein confirmed by the Senate in September 2009.

Otherwise, a great list.

Thank God I watch Glen Beck and his accurate description/videos about the thirtysomething Obama Czars. He has provided his viewers with insight as to many unsavory/radical Czar-characters including Van jones. Since many questions are posed here about who are the rest, how about asking Glen Beck?…he has done a better job than the government has and has detailed the affiliation/radicalism of some of them for us to see who is advising Obama. I am surprised that many of your readers are well informed but are not aware of Beck’s call for scrutiny of these Czars going back for quite a while. GOOD JOB DONE HERE.

[...] czar thing is an end run around congress and an attempt to shift all power to the executive branch. Roger Simon thinks so too and he puts it in much better words and perspective than I [...]

111.Ben:

You and the other useful fools and fellow travellers have been saying this crap since the ’30s.

It was the purpose of the American communists then, and it is the purpose now (read Saul Alinsky)to use the very fabric of liberty in this country to subvert and destroy it.

Where today is the Worker’s Paradise that Stalin promised you?

No, Ben, Stalin no longer needs you, or Pete Seeger, or the other fools. He’s dead and so is the system he for which he attempted to poison us with.
