Sen. Cornyn statement on appointment
Published: Sunday, September 19, 2010 12:58 AM CDT
WASHINGTON—U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, Friday issued the following statement regarding President Obama’s announcement that he will appoint Elizabeth Warren to be an Assistant to the President and Special Advisor to the Secretary of Treasury on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, circumventing the Senate confirmation process:

“Another day, another unelected czar is added to the Obama Administration. The President’s reliance on unelected czars to implement his radical agenda skirts the very checks and balances our nation was founded upon, and directly contradicts President Obama’s pledge to be the most transparent Administration in history. What is transparent is that making Elizabeth Warren his ‘consumer czar’ is an obvious political favor to special interest groups – like labor unions and liberal grassroots organizations – meant to invigorate them 50 days before an election.”

"There should never be a doubt about the point of any government action: It should always be to help families directly or help markets in ways that help families," Warren told me last December. While obstruction in the Senate has prevented her from formalizing her leadership of the CFPB, it's clear that she and President Obama both believe this is the most effective way to help.

4. I doubt there is anything you can say ...
... that will make any impact with your senator. Writing that you disagree might mean something if enough people do the same, but you are not the sort of voter he cares about. My sympathies, he's a lost cause.

5. So Bush has an array of Saints that he appointed to office
and look what happened to this country. But correct me if I am wrong, is he, wimpy cowboy Bush boy the one who started calling the committee heads CZAR's.
