My problem with the concept, and this includes my discomfort when Bill Bennett was the drug czar, is there is really no definition of what a czar's responsibility and authority is and if they are really an advisor or hold an unelected, unconfirmed position in the executive branch.

My second concern is the quality of the individual given the role. Obviously the Green Czar was not the kind of person that even Obama can surround himself with once the public learns about the person's background and character. I think it says more about Obama that he views someone with this person's background for even a role as an advisor.

I agree with others that it is a stupid term and denotes way more power than the position seems to hold. Just another example of why I oppose Obama and hope he fails to implement many of the programs that will be ruinous to this great country.
