Here’s the DNC’s idea of a convincing ad:
Interestingly, the issue of “who has hired the most czars” has become a bit of a political football as of late.
Lou Dobbs reports that the DNC is inaccurate and that Bush only had 10 Czars
While the Washington Post says about Bush’s Czar count:
By one count, Bush had 36 czar positions filled by 46 people during his eight years as president.
But, as Senator Lamar Alexander lays out in this interview, the issue isn’t really the number of “special advisers” or czars. The issue is that Obama is unprecedented in his use of unconfirmed, unvetted by Congress, czars!
So who’s right? Well, at a certain level, who cares!
If the DNC’s point is that it’s OK for Barack Obama to have a bunch of czars because Bush had a bunch of czars, their ears are more tinned than Jack Haley! The Left has no love for Bush, period and the Right has no love for Bush’s expansion of government and providing the jumping off point for Obama’s rush to socialism.
President Obama has taken no responsibility for any of the negative things his administration has been involved with. I looks lik the DNC, in a clumsy fashion, is following in the logic of Obama’s recurring excuse when confronted with bad news:
Hey, don’t blame me, I inheirited this mess!
