List of President Obama's 'Czars'
Hat tip to POLITICO.com for the current list of White House Czars. I'm thinking citizen journalists, bloggers, talkers and reconnoiters of all sorts might want to pick and choose their favorite Czar and do some vetting of our own. Here's the list. We need to go to work to see from whence they came:
The republicans in Congress, regardless of their numbers, need to be vociferously questioning the constitutionality of these Czars who are acting above and beyond the checks and balances of the other branches of government. The republicans need to have a lot more of the outrage that the New Media, the town hall meeting attendees and the Tea Party people are exhibiting from coast to coast.
Wake up, Congress! Americans are getting fed up with what we're seeing and with what we're NOT seeing!
