FNC just came with an alert and said Craig Becker(sp?) was appointed to the labor board when Obama was specifically asked not to do so by the 41 Republicans in the Senate.
We can look for all the Blue Dogs who were bribed into voting for Obamacare to get recess appointments to cushy jobs after they lose.

"...Like EFCA, the RESPECT Act has also failed to garner legislative—let alone public—support. Becker, however, in an article predating the introduction of the RESPECT Act, has signaled that he favors limiting which workers the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) classifies as supervisors. This limiting would be done, of course, not through Congress and a revision of statutory language but through the NLRB.
Even if Becker’s policies were remotely mainstream, his role as ALF-CIO/SEIU super lawyer, his prior work for Obama, and his associations with ACORN all raise questions about his nomination. Becker is currently associate general counsel for the SEIU, the same position he held when, as part of the Obama transition team, Becker drafted Executive Order 13496, “requiring government contractors and subcontractors to post a Notice of Employees Rights under Federal Labor Laws.” Although Becker claimed he was on “vacation” while working with the Obama transition team, allowing a high-ranking, paid member of organized labor to draft executive orders benefiting (surprise!) organized labor contradicts the President’s pledge to enforce a high standard of government transparency.
And then there is the ACORN issue. Although Becker rejects charges that he has ever done work for ACORN, he did admit he “worked with and provided advice to” SEIU Local 880 in Chicago. Yes, that SEIU Local 880 in Chicago. In fact, ACORN co-founder Wade Rathke has praised Becker for his “contributions.”"....

It’s becoming quite clear that he is going to ignore the Senate ahd do whatever the hell he wants. There was a vote. He waits for recess and appoints him anyway, ignoring the majority. He’s going to do everything this way which means Scott Brown didn’t mean sh*t. He’s just ignoring it.
