I pulled out the below paragraph from above, which speaks to the (constitutional) procedure upon which the president is suppose to follow when making appointments... I have also highlighted a few key words... -- ; and he shall nominate, <em>and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate</em> shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are <em>not herein otherwise provided for</em> and which shall be established by Law: <em>but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior officers</em> as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments. -- So, the way I am interpreting it is, either the appt. of these czars have been, through law, made proper by The Congress, or the president has side-stepped The Senate hearings that our founders called for in The Constitution. At this point, I am not sure of which one it is. I know a lot of people are concerned with the fact that our current president has appointed approximately thirty so-called Czars to his cabinet.
