The GOP, which includes the Tea Party, is fighting President Obama's every attempt to improve the USA economy, protect American consumers, and act in the best interest of America and the American people The GOP's strategy to hold the government hostage, demanding a GOP President be put into the white house is more of a coup d'etat, than playing games.
President Obama has every right to make recess appointment, after congress adjourns, as have all his predicessors. The GOP's claim that the Senate is currently in session is a mockery of American government, President Obama, and the Amereican people. #---------------------------------------- Excerpt: Obama spokesman Dan Pfeiffer announced the recess appointment Wednesday, saying the Senate was using “gimmick” sessions in an attempt to block the president, tactics the White House said it would now ignore. “The Senate has effectively been in recess for weeks, and is expected to remain in recess for weeks,” Pfeiffer wrote in a statement on the White House website. “In an overt attempt to prevent the President from exercising his authority during this period, Republican Senators insisted on using a gimmick called “pro forma” sessions, which are sessions during which no Senate business is conducted and instead one or two Senators simply gavel in and out of session in a matter of seconds. But gimmicks do not override the President’s constitutional authority to make appointments to keep the government running,” Pfeiffer added. http://cnsnews.com/news/article/mcconnell-obama-s-uncomfirmed-appointments-uncertain-legal-territory or http://tinyurl.com/6skgsg6 #---------------------------------------- Regards, LelandJ On 01/05/2012 05:29 PM, Michael Madigan wrote: > The crybaby speaker has no balls or else he would immediately introduce > articles of impeachment. > > ________________________________ > From: Nicholas Geti<[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Thursday, January 5, 2012 4:50 PM > Subject: [OT] Obama Stages Power Grab from Congress > > I find this so appalling that I cannot believe he is so arrogant as to try > it.
