re: #780 Thanos

Elections have consequences. Attacking Obama’s Czars isn’t going to take his power base in congress away. It’s plain stupid, and if you look at it pragmatically all of this should have been saved up for 2012 presidential elections. IF they are incompetent, and as terrible as you portend then having them in place through that time would help ensure an Obama loss. This is Glen Beck grandstanding, and you are falling for the freak show barker while the real action’s in the big tent of congress.

I do not give a damn what that weepy washerwoman beck says or doesn’t say. Congress is meaningless - Dems own it, and can do as they please. The Czars and advisors don’t answer to congress anyway, so why drag them into it in the first place? These are the president’s advisors, they have power at his pleasure, and they are a good indicator of the man’s ideological proclivities.

I suppose I might just “save it up” for the campaign later, but i see no point in letting any of it slide.
