When president-elect Barack Obama appointed Carol Browner to be his "energy czar" back in December, the conservative blogosphere was buzzing about her being a member of Socialist International, "the worldwide organisation of social democratic, socialist and labour parties."
At the time, she was fourth on the website's list of members in the "Commission for a Sustainable World Society."
Not any longer, although it still is cached by Google (h/t Steven Milloy):
CAROL M. BROWNER
Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency under President Bill Clinton. Leading the EPA from 1993 to 2001, she was the longest-serving Administrator in the agency’s history. Browner currently serves on the board of several non-profit organisations, including as chair of the National Audubon Society, one of the nation’s oldest environmental organisations, and as a member of the Board of the Directors of the Center for American Progress, the Alliance for Climate Protection and the League of Conservation Voters.

Because it would become more difficult for the left to maintain the calculated lie that PEBO's cabinet selections are "centrist," when we all know full well that they are not.
This hideous woman is a flaming communist, and has no business holding any position of power in the government of a free nation. She did a horrible job running the EPA when she worked for Clinton, and I suspect giving her near dictatorial powers in the energy arena in this country will mean even higher energy prices this summer, and far worse later on.
Given all of these regurgitated Clintonistas PEBO is picking (if it actually is PEBO doing the picking) for his cabinet, and given the checkered pasts and questionable associations many of them are saddled with, it appears to me the republicans have been handed a virtual treasure trove of ammunition when confirmation time comes around.
I wonder if they will use any of it?

True, RD....she and Clinton attempted to implement the Kyoto treaty incrementally, via EPA regulations, because they knew they couldn't get it ratified in the Senate.
Heaven knows what she will try to implement if given free rein.
And I, for one, wish they would stop using the term "Czar." These are public servants, for crying out loud, not omnipotent rulers!

Carol Browner could single-handedly destroy the US economy, and that even without the aid of PEBO's gazillion-dollar economic "plan."
This woman scares me almost as much as PEBO himself, maybe even more so because unlike him, she actually knows what she is doing.

Man, she must be one powerful woman. But, I think you'll agree that she has been given a considerable head start by the Dems and Repubs in the past two administrations, as well as by the congressional majorities of each party.

January 8, 2009 - 17:16 ET by DelsaI have said it here many times. This guy SOBama is NOT picking ANY of the folks because he doesn't even know any of them. Unless? He knows them through the common groups they ALL belong to?
In reality, PEBHO is an empty suit and he is not making one of these appointments.
You have also questioned it and all I can say is "Great Minds Think Alike"
Delsa, I said in another
January 8, 2009 - 18:37 ET by motherbeltDelsa, I said in another thread that I think he is picking these people because he doesn't know anybody, having not been around long enough, and these are names he recognizes.
Ditto his pick of Pastor Warren for the inauguration and Dr. Gupta. They are both pop culture figures. They are names he knows because they are all over the place.
You are so right. If you
January 8, 2009 - 18:40 ET by celatorYou are so right.
If you draw out one of those "who's connected to whom" charts, connecting people with the associations and friends they share, you will be staggered by the interconnecting relationships that are revealed. It's easy enough to do even with the information that's public.
Even worse, the people in Obama's backroom kitchen cabinet all come from the darkest, most malevolent elements of our society. They are up to no good whatsoever.
For liberal Democrats and the MSM, everything is crisis, chaos, calamity and catastrophe. And only the government has the solution.
Suprise?
January 8, 2009 - 17:18 ET by mothergooseSo...........wasn't Obama on the membership list of some socialist party before the election? As for why it was scrubbed....................probably so it wouldn't be a "distraction"!!

sz...exactly, like I said
January 8, 2009 - 17:57 ET by bigtimersz...exactly, like I said in my first post above, I agree with you, she (they) are going to finish off what they started in the Clintoon administration that they were unable to do because of the power in congress, I watched numerous hearings with this witch in charge...people better be scared, the price we will pay will be staggering in the long run.
If O really wanted to create millions of jobs he would Drill Baby Drill...the private sector, not govt, is the answer, over 2 million jobs could be created all in all with everything that doing so would touch in our economy, but we can't have that agenda, self-dependency is NOT what the leftists want...not ever.

I hope we have some strong Republicans and a few conservative Democrats who will stand up to prevent this slide into oblivion Obama is set to make!
Surely some of those Democrats who came on last year had some conservative thoughts. I cannot see the southern Democrats with a strong auto industry in their states, supporting the card check, for instance.

January 8, 2009 - 19:31 ET by bigtimerCC...that's what they said about some of the supposed conservative dems that were elected in '06, instead they got in line like good little Pelosi soldiers with their votes as she cracked her whip behind the scenes, I so think we have a good handful of strong conservatives in congress, not enough to stop anything in the House, especially with the rule changes Pelosi made the other day, forget about it, the house is fried, as far as the Senate, I hope some like Sessions, Inhofe and Coburn can stop some of this total destruction to this country.
Time will tell.
Past sad all in all.
Btw...when I listened go Boehner and McConnell on the same day of opening the new congress, it made me ill...same old...same old, reach across the aisle, get along, blah blah blah...nothing is going to change until the 'R's as a whole get a spine, I am no longer holding my breath...not that I ever did.

As Obama and his nominees
January 8, 2009 - 18:26 ET by celatorAs Obama and his nominees introduce full blown National Socialism, day by day, you'd think they'd be bragging about Socialist Browner, not scrubbing her name off public lists of active Socialists. Must be too soon to let the cat out of the bag.
For liberal Democrats and the MSM, everything is crisis, chaos and catastrophe. And only the government has the solution.

It's pretty straight forward, isn't it?
January 8, 2009 - 18:56 ET by PewahIn her new capacity as "Energy Czar" she will be attempting to implement the same sort of economy killing environmental initiatives here in the U.S. as the entrenched socialists in Europe have been embracing for years. Just take a look at the countries of origin for most of those people she is sharing that web page with!
She had to be removed from that site so that when she begins the new administration's crusade to make us all into their interpretation of "green" we cannot point to this page and expose her for what she is and why she is doing it...SHE'S A SOCIALIST!

January 8, 2009 - 18:55 ET by BKeyserI just flipped on the TV and saw a preview for the 6:00 news! They're leading with this story!
