Why hasn't the President done any recess appointments
to fill in the vacancies that the Confederate party is needlessly delaying on?

2. Because the rethugs would be upset and he does NOTHING to upset them. At least,
Edited on Thu Nov-19-09 01:42 PM by T Wolf
he does nothing that should upset them. But, since they get their views and orders from Fuck Nuze, there will always be some bullshit (the bows) to rile them up.

And still, he caters to them. Why?

3. And still, he caters to them. Why? BECAUSE he works for the same masters as them, and they
(the masters)are not the people.

4. Probably a good thing considering that the Democrats were so
upset about Shrub doing it.

7. because not even chimpy used that power to any degree during his first year in office?
During the first session of Congress during which chimpy was president, he made only one recess appointment---he re-named, on a temporary basis, the chairman of the NLRB whose term was expiring.
Presidents generally don't use the recess appointment much in their first year in office.

8. Presidents usually don't get such roadblock obstruction like Obama has either
They are playing games with peoples lives. I don't care what the GOP thinks because there thoughts are to screw tbe American people and one way to do that is to be against the President in any and every way regardless of what it is.

Fuck them. He should and must use every tool necessary.

If a Senator holds prevents an appointment getting through then that person should get the first available recess appointment.

Fuck them and their anti-life, anti-American people games.
