Didn't you get the memo about transforming the nation? What did you think that meant?
Congress turned down the President's nominees.
They did their job.
Since the dipshit in chief now wants to subvert the Constitution on this matter, it IS the job of the Senate (minority) and the House (majority) to obstruct the President at every turn.
Fuck him. He's an elected President in a Constitutional REPUBLIC. He's not a fucking dictator.

If, by doing their job, you're referring to the fact that Republican Senators a dragging their feet and refusing to bring any of Obama's nominees to a vote, then doing their job is exactly what they are NOT doing.
If Republicans are going to keep pulling this stupid shit, they'd better get used to getting it thrown back in their faces.

Then daveman agrees that Obama is right in what he is doing. I would support Bush in this situation, or Clinton, or Bush the Elder.
Congress's duty is to advise and consent, not obstruct.
I don't support the President violating the Constitution.
You shouldn't, either. But you support anything Obama does.
Ahhh, I love a good game of "the liberal didn't say what he said". So much fun.Then daveman agrees that Obama is right in what he is doing. I would support Bush in this situation, or Clinton, or Bush the Elder.

You have generalized when your own statements about me show you are wrong.
Your opinion is your opinion, you are entitled to it, and you are wrong. End of story.

Frustrated House still waiting for Senate action on 420 bills - TheHill.com
Maybe you can fill us in in the history of Pro Forma Sessions. Please give Harry Reid a big fat wet kiss for me too.
As I said earlier, both of these cases are part of a conflict between the Senate and the President over appointments (and the Senate's overuse of the filibuster more generally). Comparing these sessions to Reid keeping the Senate in pro forma sessions in 2007/2008 doesn't really work though, since a) it was an action taken by the Senate, as opposed to the House refusing to let the Senate adjourn and b) Bush's nominees would have failed on a floor vote anyway, since his party was in the minority.
The Constitution grants the Senate Authority to set it's own rules. It is for the Senate to decide and honor. The Senate was not in Recess. Deal with it.

You're quoting a source from over a year ago? Okay, whatever.
If the Senate is actually in recess, there's no problem.I agree that Senate Democrats failed in not reforming the rules of the filibuster. The Senate Republicans have succeeded in stonewalling pretty much everything that comes down the pike. They deserve everything they get in terms of recess appointments. I hope a lot more are on the way.
