Regarding Czars

Senator Byrd was right to raise the question of the use of the word Czar.

I have been wondering off and on when and why Obama chose that designation?

Now I am wondering even more------'

I am clearing old boxes of papers and came across an envelope of WWI papers kept by someone in the family.

On one full page is an on going story----"A Tale of Love, Mystery and the Great War"T" picturing a woman with a Red Cross insignia and a military man being treated----story to be continued next Sunday. (Believe this was a page from Bluefield, Virginia and West Virginia Paper)

On the reverse is a full page title "The Last Moments of the Unhappy Czar Described by His Priest"----this is the story of the Trial and Execution of Nicholas Romanoff, How he was condemmed without evidence and shot as told by Father John of the Uspensky Cathedral. Father John wrote this 20 years after the execution of Romanoff as Father John was with Romanoff in the last week before his execution.

Yes, I am rambling----------but why the use of the word Czar by Obama.

Senator Byrd certainly is correct-------the American Constituion has no place for Czars. Obama needs to be called on this again. Senator Byrd is not long for this world------we need someone else to call him on this.

The second question that arises----------have we ever had a President who used the term Czar? I think not.
