Cap and Soc Socratic discourse again: Cap: The Great Lakes indeed, another czar, probably unqualified. Has he ever served on an ore boat, fished in a Great Lakes storm, walked the stony beaches barefoot, I doubt he even knows the Indian names. Soc: Doesn't matter. IAW our Ctr for Amrcn Prgrss detailed list of to dos, this is just another infiltration appointment. Cap, you know full well that the schedule calls for us to implement agendas across a wide and ever widening sprectrum of the USA. Cap: Given all that, the Great Lakes communities affected are bound to resist. Simple logic tells you that the Great Lakes environment is community dependent. ANY clean ups, waste stoppage, etc must come from local action. A OBNA Czar may be Leftist agenda PL correct but is ineffective. Soc: Doesn't matter. THE VERY APPOINTMENT is the key. Add to that his budget, staff, and the agenda is in place. Mission accomplished. No results are needed. Cap: Another fine mess, Soc. end

He's calling the "czars" to make us think he's not a Communist.

Good Gawd! All we need is another "Czar"?... another darned appointed bureaucrat, with a 1/2 billion dollar budget, to issue policy and regulation, without Congressional oversight (for what that's ever worth), or the consent of the People. What a crock! Let's see now.... there's the Great Lakes Czar, the CyberSpace Czar, the Technology Czar, the Drug Czar, the Cop;yright Czar, the Climate Czar, the Car Czar, the Energy Czar, the Healthcare Czar, the WMD Czar, the Education Czar, the Economic Czar, the Housing Czar, and the Mortgage Czar. As I recall, historically, a Czar was an unelected, overbearing, oppressive, and brutal tyrant. May the elimination of these positions be accomplished at the ballot box, rather than through revolution. The size and intrusiveness of this government needs to be slashed, and it's power restrained within constitutional limits. Czars, indeed! What an insult!
