Sen. Byrd questions Obama's use of policy 'czars'

Senator Byrd of West Virginia makes a valid point that with the introduction of czars for policy issues typically reserved for Congress, President Obama may be over utilizing his role as President. For a highly respected Democrat such as Richard Byrd to oppose some of President Obama's policies in public, it goes to show that not everyone is on the same page. At this point the President is winning on this issue and using his presidential power to exercise his will in appointing policy czars. At some point though, Congress may begin attacking this on a more widespread scale especially of the czars are unable to get much accomplished.
