Laying The Groundwork For The Post-2010 Coup
Does it disturb anybody besides me that Barack Obama has amassed virtually an entire shadow-cabinet that hasn't undergone a single, solitary moment of congressional confirmation scrutiny?
Fortunately, yes:
[Where Glenn Reynolds' "House of Czars" embedded video would be if Pajamas TV had ever heard of the concept of virality.]
Since you're denied the vid here, I'll just glom Ensign Ed's salient exit question instead:
What authority does the federal government have to set up commissars for private industry at all? This question becomes even more urgent when these “czars” have no accountability to or oversight from Congress, whether they choose to exercise it or not. Obama has more czars than Cabinet members now, and none of them required any confirmation from the Senate or answer to anyone but the President.
Almost makes one suspect that Red Barry came into office assuming that his party was going to get butchered in the 2010 midterms, doesn't it?
