Americans, Do you approve or disprove Obama's Advisers "czars"?
Update:
I am not asking the meaning of czars or where it came from. Do you approve?

Disapprove.
I just spent the last hour looking some of them up. Do you know who Cameron Davis is and what he does.
Just off this one list I came up with 28 names and what they are czars to. Wait we only have 27 according to that list we did loose Van Jones on Sunday.
He's not the first US President to have Czars you know...
but, if your part of the 1% of America who watches, or worse part of the .5% of America that believes Glenn Back...you'd think he was.
I don't know much of the Czars, but I can assure you, I don't care much for the "departments" being created for them to run.
I think the government is sticking their nose into too many things that should be state handled.
They're fine with me. Now, since people are b*tching right and left about it, it makes me wonder why I neglected to b*tch about Reagan's Czars, Bush Sr's Czars, and Bush jr's Czars. But you can bet I'll be more vocal than these people who are complaining about Obama's when and if a republican ever gets elected to the executive branch again. My guess is that I wont have to bother.
Jones admits interior the early 90s he "grow to be a communist". Like maximum human beings his political critiques moderated as he grew up. he's not a communist in the present day - having spent extra advantageous than a decade merchandising and advocating eco-capitalism. This decade of paintings make him properly qualified for the region of specific consultant for eco-friendly Jobs. Your comments approximately exertions camps are below contempt. yet persist with it - in case you go with for to starve your self of all credibility with those ignorant rants - be my customer.
Wow, let's look at the list!

The point is that czar is just a label for a bureaucrat who works for the federal government. I didn't disapprove of Bush's czars, I disapproved of Bush's policies. I approve of most of Obama's policies and I don't care about the labels on federal bureaucrats.
Back in late May or early June, some right wing radio host made a fuss about the word 'czar,' not realizing that Bush had a whole list of czars too. Ever since then, the claim has been echoed around as a tribute to those too ill-informed to recall or research the recent past.
.
I disapprove of how they obtain their position and how they are removed. All presidents have "czars" to a degree. Although this is the most any one president has had.
Yes, I do approve of individuals who are members of his cabinet. He put a lot more thought and good judgment into those selections than the previous good ol' boy did.
If in fact he believed they were valid and necessary, let the congress check them out and confirm them. Then nobody could say anything. Remember, transparency came straight from the bama's mouth, let him show it.
Disapprove. The guy needs to surround himself with advisers because he can't think for himself.
i think you should be name calling but instead make sure his not voted in again... because well he shouldnt be trusted since he aint caring about the people
