Are Obama’s Czars Accountable to Anyone?
Good question.
The numbers are not good. Unemployment at 9.4% and likely heading for 10%. And slowing job “losses” is not a sign of recovery. Even the Vice President admits, the stimulus money is not stimulating … and the pace of the spending has to be accelerated. But as I point out in this post, you can speed it up all you want, all the stimulus money is doing is funding public sector jobs and sucking money from the private sector where permanent jobs are created. The result will be, at best, a stagnant economy.
Neil Cavuto had this exchange with VP Biden’s economist Jared Bernstein. Bernstein challenges Cavuto’s knowledge on the Czars and as you will see that turns into a smackdown. The tables turn when Cavuto contends the Czars are accomplishing little.

Speaking of Czars … what’s a great lakes czar?

I love how Cavuto just keeps bringing the guests back to the question.
Bernstein thinks that the accountability can be delegated to these bureaucrats – such as those that report to the Vice President – for an $ 800 billion "stimulus" plan?
There will be a surge in unemployment in the next few months – as the automobile industry, including dealers and suppliers, come crashing down.
Bernstein is a joke, and a bad one at that. He was clearly out of his league with Cavuto. He tried to use the well worn liberal tactics of putting Cavuto on the defensive, but Cavuto was having none of it. Bernstein was figuratively clubbed like a baby seal. That was far worse than any of the alleged "torture" that occurred at Gitmo!
Why am I not surprised that he is an aide to "Slow Joe" Biden?
If this is the caliber of "advisor" that the Obamaroids have working for them, we are in more trouble than I thought.
