Obama building dynasty with czars
Let's see:
The Romanov Dynasty - which ruled Russia from 1613 - 1917 produced 18 czars.
In five months, Obama has appointed way more than that - though it's hard to get an exact count. I'm googling but can't find a comprehensive list (if anyone comes up with one, please let me know).
In the meantime, you can get yourself up-to-speed on Obama's strategy to circumvent our constitutional form of government - three branches, checks and balances, you know, all that old-fashioned stuff - by building his own dynasty:
Obama fashions a government of many czars
Obama's 'Pay Czar' -- Welcome to the Twilight Zone
What does this mean for us everyday people, trying to raise our families and put food on the table? Actually, a lot - which is why I'm asking you to take a little time to wrap your head around the issue - since the only way we will every get thes man out of office is by educating our fellow citizens. The Obama Media is having too good a time lying and unfortunately being believed even by our intelligent friends and neighbors who've obediently turned off some of our brightest analysts because they've been misrepresented and savaged (Yesterday I talked to a friend who disparaged Rush Limbaugh and I asked if she ever listened to him. She hadn't for 18 years! Yet we're supposed to be the close-minded ones.)
Along with the Kafka-esque nightmare being created by shrinking private sector jobs while expanding government jobs, this will add more totalitarian injustice. For while you may grow frustrated in your dealings with local government officials who lack any incentive for good customer service, a cyber-czar - accountable to no one but Our Glorious Leader - may arbitrarily decide to silence debate on the Internet (we no longer have meaningful debate on TV).
So: Know Your Czars. It will help you understand what's coming.

Reading the Reuters article, there did not seem to be too much in-depth coverage of the actual issues at hand. An odd thing I did notice in the article- it mentioned the oversized government as "sprawling" an adjective that implies the writer would care to see it cut down:). It's funny how when a government becomes so large that the President feels the need to appoint "mini-me's" or people of exact like mind to control the "sprawling bureacracy" instead of getting at the underlying issue: too many people involved in controlling too many aspects of the private citizenry's lives.
I'd like to see some real reporting on the typical day in the life of one of these bureaucrats. You know, actually get some substance as to what they do?
