Obama's Czars. Who Are They? What Are They ? Why Are They Here?

Czars are Unconstitutional and they have unprecedented power over the goverment. They can do whatever they want and no one can say anything about it and hardly anyone knows about who are these and the power they have over the government. Guess who is giving them all this power!? It wasn't the people who gave them the power. Congress didn't them the power. It was President Barack Obama. There was about 41 Czars as of 9/4/09 and now 40 as of 9/6/09 thanks to us and others who really what is going on. Each one has his/her power over what President Barack Obama wants them to do.

The definition of Czar is emperor! look in the dictionary for yourself! See what Obama is doing. He is going to take over the U.S.A! Mark Lloyd is going to remove anything on the TV and on the radio that Obama does not like. But you could help stop it by adding your name on this Petition and stop and hopefully remove all the Czars he has. We and others helped to put pressure on Mr. Van Jones. This is one of the big step that you can make happen if you just sign.

Pick any name on this list and research who and what these people are. There back rounds,associations. Van Jones is just the beginning. Others on this list are as bad as he was.

Be Blessed.

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity (Love), I am become as a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vauneth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seekth not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is (Love) charity.  

Wash. Post: "By one count, Bush had 36 czar positions"<p>

Washington Post reports that a count of Bush czars yielded 36 positions. Reporting on conservative criticism of the Obama administration's czars, The Washington Post stated, "Lists drawn up by conservative groups detail as many as 40 czars linked to Obama, although some of the positions existed before he took office, and some did win Senate approval." The Post further reported that "Richard M. Nixon named a drug czar and an energy czar, and George W. Bush named czars to coordinate policy efforts on a range of issues. By one count, Bush had 36 czar positions filled by 46 people during his eight years as president." [The Washington Post, 9/16/09]<p><p>

Other media conservatives have misled to attack Obama's use of czar officials <p>

Fox News launches witch hunt against Obama administration "czars." Fox News asserted that "czars are not subjected to congressional oversight." In fact, many of the Obama administration officials the network has labeled "czars" have been confirmed by the Senate or were appointed to positions created through legislation passed by Congress; additionally, a number of the officials had counterparts in the Bush administration. Fox News personalities have also targeted specific officials they have identified as "czars."

The term 'czar' was most probably a media flippant description, first occurring with Nixon.  Reagan rather like the term and expanded its usage.

Both Bushes had "Czars".  G.W. Bush had as many as 47 czars.

Obama's appointing of "managers", basically to maintain positions of advising and helping a president to better keep up to speed on the myriad things going on.  There's nothing new, except that the far right, with their generally uneducated members, and with the usual ignorance, have yet another false thing to try and fool people with.

On You Tube, with Glenn Beck doing his usual dog & pony show, is shown going through a list of Obama appointed "czars", but as he lists them, the images of Bush's czars appears just beside Beck's head.

----------------------

Right now, it would be embarrassing to be an American due to all of the misinformation, the outright lies, the degradation of our ideals, and the displayed ignorance of, say, the Czars.....   But!  I'm keeping the faith that it is just because of the publicity that the ignorance and hate seems so rampant.  Want to get attention?  Hold up a sign that degrades.  Or lie.  Or call someone a liar.

We see how long it takes for a REAL backlash to occur against the minority of haters, haters who don't know the history or Czars....or much of anything else.

Here's a video of Glenn Beck.  Boy, how he exposes the "Czars"!

 

Each one has his/her power over what President Barack Obama wants them to do.
