STATE DEPT. APPOINTS ‘TRANSPARENCY CZAR’ AFTER CLINTON EMAIL SCANDAL

hillary face

BigGovernment: I’m old enough to remember when the concept of a “czar” indicated a special position vested with extraordinary powers to deal with a unique crisis, as in the “Drug Czar.” In the Age of Obama, we’ve got czars running around all over the place.

They grow like barnacles on the listing, rust-pitted ship of state, products of a hopelessly corrupt bureaucracy that can no longer handle its daily business without violating its own rules. Czars are often dropped as distractions, like a fighter jet ejecting flares to avoid heat-seeking missiles. The appointment of a powerful new position with great fanfare is the ultimate Washington way of pretending to Do Something and mollify an angry public.

And so, there comes unto the State Department a new “transparency czar,” officially to be known as the Transparency Coordinator. The position will be initially filled by Ambassador Janice Jacobs – who, you will not be surprised to learn, donated $2700 to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign less than three months ago.  More

    Though we’ve used it to indicate a person appointed to advise/coordinate on a particular area, it means “a person of dictatorial powers.”

    We’ve gotten quite a few czars in the age of O.

    ” “It really did bother me that they skipped the whole chapter on the rise of Christianity and they spent three weeks just studying Islam,” she said. “

  4. Back during the FDR administration they were called what they were: “DICTATORS.” Of course, that was prior to WWII, when the left was enamored of Benito ‘Roman Empire” Mussolini, Adolph “Trains run on-time” Hitler, and “Uncle Joe” Stalin.
