It's clearly time for the current administration to recall what happened to the last "dynasties" which believed in Tsarism. They got the axe. Tempting as it is, and seemingly justified by practice and precedent laid down by misguided past administrations, Obama must avoid the temptation of tipping the balance of power toward the Executive Branch, and kill the dangerous practice of appointing so-called "Czars" to key governmental positions.

After he was elected and before he was sworn in, I made peace with the fact that a velvet-tongued elitist who lacked the courage to vote anything but "present" on several critical bills (in order to conceal his true stripes) was going to be our Commander In Chief. I told my wife and my friends here in my home state of Illinois that I would bite my own tongue and stay open minded to the possibility that the "change" promised by "Present Obama" could actually be of value to Americans, desperately in need of a unifying leader.
