In a 9-0 vote, the Supreme Court has tossed out Obama’s ‘recess appointments’ that Obama tried to sneak past the Senate when it wasn’t actually in recess.
Looks like the Master of the Universe (in his own mind) will have to abide by SOME laws.
he US Supreme Court today limited a president’s power to make recess appointments when the White House and the Senate are controlled by opposite parties, scaling back a presidential authority as old as the republic.
The case arose from a political dispute between President Obama and Senate Republicans, who claimed he had no authority to put three people on the National Labor Relations Board in January 2012 when the Senate was out of town.

He used a president’s power, granted by the Constitution, to “fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate.” But the Republicans said the Senate was not in recess at the time the appointments were made, because every three days a senator went into the chamber, gaveled it to order, and then immediately called a recess.
Toss him out!!!!
Last of the whiny liberal socialists for sure!

What pathetic, ignorant pagans here. I am on the wrong page, it i NOT about truth. It IS about hate and lies. The father of ALL liars is satan.

A## hole
Yes Carole the father of lies is Satan. And this is supposed to be Truth and Action. No the Senate was not in recess. The Supreme Court was correct in their ruling. But I’m sure you have discovered there are a variety of people on this page / some kind and articulate that don’t call names and others who are the opposite. Debate is good when you use facts not ugly opinions and sight your sources.
Thank God, please remove him from our nation. The sooner the better.
About time!
