#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.
