re: #470 Spenser (with an S)

I’m trying to be pleasant and factual but again, I think you understand what I was trying to say. Not that no other president had them (one of my favorite people is Bill Bennet, who was Reagan’s Edu and Drug Czar I beleive), and not that they are actual Russian rulers who will take over my village. He has a lot of them and they’re very expensive and they don’t answer to me in any way.

I understood you to be claiming that Obama has a raft of people, called ‘czars’ who are appointees, bypassed a confirmation process, and are not answerable to congress.

This is not true.
