We should not impede his wishes by bringing up something human such as the Constitution.
Article 2, Section 2, United States Constitution
Quote:
The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session.
If you're going to piss and moan about the Constitution, perhaps you'd like to read it first?

We're beyond that piece of paper and into the other worldly. I think that just because the Senate didn't officially go into recess that the true Savior shouldn't be able to do what he wishes. I'm only disturbed that we haven't built a proper monument to him.

This will become the new normal.
Both sides will complain that the other does it.
I would say it already is the new norm.

Didn't Bush do this all the time? Not really sure what the big deal is, since the consumer protection agency presumably works on behalf of most of you clowns.
