Our country has developed a National Attention Deficit Disorder - anything that happened more than a tweet ago we forget.
Call me old fashioned but I remember. My brain tends to lock in events that it detects to be utterly shocking, earth shattering, landscape changers. Before history forgets, let's review a few game changers that my memory cannot. Specifically, the trusted advisors newly minted president Barack Obama hand picked to surround himself to rely upon for sage advice.
Carol Browner - energy and environment czar
Listed as a commissioner in Socialist International, a global organization of socialist and labor parties that chronically condemns U.S. policies.
Cass Sunstein - regulatory czar
An unapologetic Socialist who often lectured and published articles, Sunstein argued directly for a Socialist revolution. His ideology can be summed up by his famous quote, “There is no liberty without dependency".
Van Jones - green jobs czar
Card-carrying Communist who was forced to resign his post after Glenn Beck reported his Communist ties.
Ron Bloom - car czar
Despite zero automobile experience, Obama liked his style. A big fan of Mao, Bloom was famously quoted as saying, "We kind of agree with Mao that political power comes largely from the barrel of a gun."
Anita Dunn - communications director
Another Mao disciple
Vivek Kundra - information czar
Just days after his appointment, Kundra was placed on administrative leave after his former office was raided by the FBI.
John Holdren - science czar
A particularly nasty piece of work Holdren has called America “the meanest of wealthy countries” and has endorsed one-world government in a “surrender of sovereignty” to “a comprehensive planetary regime” that would control and dispense all global resources, redistribute the confiscated wealth, draft a world army, direct a “de-development” of the West, and limit the growth of the world’s population through compulsory abortion.
Nancy-Ann DeParle - health care czar
A strong proponent of health care rationing.
Ed Montgomery - car recovery czar
A former ACORN board member who serves on the academic advisory committee for the Soros-funded Center for American Progress.
Alan Bersin - border czar
An advocate of open borders.
With czars like that who needs enemies?
