The President Did Something Unconstitutional
http://www.kltv.com/story/20706340/c...constitutional
WASHINGTON (AP) - In an embarrassing setback for President Barack Obama, a federal appeals court panel ruled that he violated the Constitution in making recess appointments last year, a decision that would effectively curtail a president's ability to bypass the Senate to fill administration vacancies.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit said that Obama did not have the power to make three recess appointments last year to the National Labor Relations Board because the Senate was officially in session - and not in recess - at the time. If the decision stands, it could invalidate hundreds of board decisions.
The court said the president could only fill vacancies with the recess appointment procedure if the openings arise when the Senate is in an official recess, which it defined as the break between sessions of Congress.

Doesn't surprise me.
Sadly, too many of both the Democrats and the Republicans are enemies of the Constitution. They each only pick and choose what they believe to be relevant to our world today.

Re: The President Did Something Unconstitutional
Neither the people nor the representatives are mindful of the constitution anymore. Bush declared war without congress and granted the ability to search and seize without warrant and even jail without a trial by a jury of our peers... Obama does this... he forces us to buy insurance by penalty of law.
The constitution is disregarded daily whenever it serves someones purposes to do so.

I remember congress agreed to the war. Are you referring to another war or different Bush than W?
