Obama’s Far Left Czars
Today I am flying the 1st Navy Union Jack, a Patriot Flag I fly when Liberty and Freedom are threatened. We all knew Candidate Obama was a product of the “far left” but few realized how that would manifest itself in his selection of the people around him. And he said he should be judged on the people he selects to surround him.
Liberty Threatened
That seems fair, since there wasn’t a lot else to “judge” him on and since he did tell us he was a “Blank Slate” … (see Blank Slate Politics)
From RealClearPolitics: This leave-them-guessing strategy slips out in the book’s prologue. “I serve as a blank screen,” Obama writes, “on which people of vastly different political stripes project their own views.” He notifies readers that “my treatment of the issues is often partial and incomplete.” It takes some doing for a politician to write a 364-page book, his second volume, and skate past all controversy.
During the 2008 Presidential campaign Barack Obama told audiences:
‘Judge me by the people with whom I surround myself.’
So a year later, we can be the “judge” … its no longer supposition, now we are dealing with facts. On the Free Republic, a poster named “Mindbender26″ (thread here) posted this updated list:

The above thread start from MindBender26 at the Free Republic
The Bottom Line
Past Indicators: As a candidate, knowing Barack Obama had associated with people like Bill Ayers and sat in a black liberation (separatist) church for years, the signals were there for the news media and eventually the voters to question this candidate’s far left radical associations. But no questioning happened. The candidate made promises of “moderate” … no public option on Health Care, and transparent government. To look at the broken promises of this man, you can go to NewsGnome for the updated list.
Today’s Proof: He is not what he promised he would be, but the indicators were there that he was a radically “left” candidate. The proof of this is in his selection of the people who surround him. And we shall judge him based on who those people are, just as he asked us to do.

Paul Schiffer on intruducing Non-Czar Legislation
Schiffer promises to introduce this legislation in Congress after election to Congress. Schiffer explained:
“I believe ‘Czars’ are un-American. It started out as almost an inside-the-Beltway joke under Republican Administrations—calling a Presidential adviser a ‘Czar.’ But the idea of Presidential ‘Czars’ has become a worrying trend. If we continue on this path, Presidential over-use of White House ‘Czars’ threatens to weaken America’s democratic system.”
Schiffer stated:
“Placing the authority for Executive Branch business under unelected, unaccountable ‘Czars’ confuses and undermines our American system. The U.S. Constitution establishes the idea of Departments whose heads must be confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Concentrating more and more power in the hands of ‘Czars’ has the effect of setting up a whole new, alternative ‘shadow government’ outside of our American system. This is creating worry among some patriots that at a time of national crisis and confusion, these Czars could serve as a power center outside of our established American system of Departments, with Secretaries confirmed by the United States Senate.”
Paul Schiffer further clarified:
“My legislation allows Presidents to have any advisors they want, and call them anything they want. However, White House advisors like ‘Czars’ will have no authority over any part of the U.S. Government. My legislation would prohibit any White House advisor from exercising authority over any Federal or State government official, employee, office or department, and would protect every government official and employee from not obeying any White House advisor other than the President himself. The President, of course, is the Chief Executive of the Executive Branch and the President may always act under his own authority in his own name. Obviously, my legislation creates exceptions for any special chain of command established by statute that might be agreed to between the Congress and the President, such as with national security matters.”
