Obama's Czars are in charge of $1.7 TRILLION. I'm just not so sure that putting the President's cronies in charge of that type of budget is prudent. There's no Congressional oversight of these people. Who's keeping tabs on their spending? The Budget Czar?

Even Senator Robert Byrd, a Democrat thinks that having all these Czars is "dangerous".

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
