Pssh. Nice try.

I simply pointed out that there is precedence for "czars" to be appointed by presidents in the US (the practice actually dates back to the 60's or 70's), and that all of this false outrage over Obama's appointment of said czars is ridiculous, considering the fact that Bush (the most recent former president) appointed many of his own czars, as well, and no one b*tched and moaned about it then. Probably because it's not nearly as big a deal as the b*tchers and moaners would like people to think it is.

The fact that I used Bush as an example, due to his being the most recent former president who also engaged in "czar" appointment, does not equate Bush with Obama. For you to deduce such is rather obtuse.

Well I don't remember any of the Bush Czars recommending forced sterilization or that they were self proclaimed communist, and how about taking orders from Obamas appointees that can't even pay their own taxes telling us that they have to raise ours to pay for their spending. Boy Obama's doing one heck of a job. If he hires anymore of his buddies from Chicago the city won't have anyone left to run for office.At $140,000. X 34 he could save the Tax payers alot of money and downsize the Government if he just got rid of them. I hope they start an investigation on his connection to them all.

Do you actually believe any of the utter nonsense you've written?

How sad for you.

"The biggest problems that we're facing right now have to do with George Bush trying to bring more and more power into the executive branch and not go through Congress at all. And that's what I intend to reverse when I'm president of the United States." -- Sen. Barack Obama, March 31, 2008



to say that president obama failed to follow through on this promise is an understatement.........

befriend, YES I ACTUALLY DO! I Think if more people had paid attention to what he was saying during his campaign, I don't think the Democratic Party would have selected him. HE BOUGHT HIS WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE.He's nothing but a radical raciest hates White Or Rich People.

Can we merge this with the other czar threads? I mean really, is there any reason why we need another thread on this topic?

Let's all not foget about the young boy from Chicago that used to pal around with the President who is riding his coat tails to the Illinois senate. He was so close to our dear President that he even attended Wright's church along side him and also played nice business games with Rezko and Ayers. Heck, this young lad even came up with a streamlined idea of how to play a harmless shell game with tax dollars to pay for some of his buddies' (Obama, Rezko, Ayers) realestate projects.
