A Czar Too Far

J.Cook

If too many cooks ruin the soup, what do too many czars ruin? To date, Barack Obama has appointed at least 28 czars, people whose sole function is to integrate industry and government through regulation. The following list of czars was compiled by PolitiFact.com:

  1. Herb Allison-TARP Czar
  2. Alan Bersin-Border Czar
  3. Dennis Blair-Intelligence Czar
  4. John Brennan-Terrorism Czar
  5. Carol Browner-Energy Czar
  6. Adolfo Carrion, Jr-Urban Affairs Czar
  7. Ashton Carter-Weapons Czar
  8. Aneesh Chopra-Technology Czar
  9. Jeffrey Crowley-AIDS Czar
  10. Cameron Davis-Great Lakes Czar
  11. Nancy-Ann DeParle-Health Czar
  12. Earl Devaney-Stimulus Accountability Czar
  13. Joshua DuBois-Faith-based Czar
  14. Kenneth Feinberg-Pay Czar
  15. Danny Fried-Guantanamo Closure Czar
  16. J. Scott Gration-Sudan Czar
  17. Richard Holbrooke-Afghanistan Czar
  18. John Holdren-Science Czar
  19. Van Jones Green-Jobs Czar
  20. Gil Kerlikowske-Drug Czar
  21. Vivek Kundra-Information Czar
  22. George Mitchell-Mideast Peace Czar
  23. Ed Montgomery-Car Czar
  24. Dennis Ross-Mideast Policy Czar
  25. Gary Samore-WMD Czar
  26. Todd Stern-Climate Czar
  27. Cass Sunstein-Regulatory Czar
  28. Paul Volcker-Economic Czar

Now, all of this would be laughable, were it not for the power of these individuals with strong loyalties to the Administration. These people are accountable to no one, able to make policy that affects the lives of ordinary citizens, and collect huge salaries compliments of the taxpayer. On second thought, maybe there should be one more czar–the Gone Too Far Czar.

Each of the people listed above represents a threat to our system of government. We are not Russians. We don’t need czars to micromanage our affairs.
