Can’t the House GOP cut off all funds to the NLRB in protest at this?

There might be a bit of a silver lining, at least with Cordray. He will leave his job as AG in Ohio to join the community organizer who will be leaving in a year and than Cordray will be looking for a job and the people of Ohio may end up better off with him gone.

Are the Republicans going to do anything about it (file a lawsuit in federal court, etc.) or are McConnell and Boehner just going to issue another “sternly worded” press release...

We are wasting a lot of manoey paying salaries and keeping staffs for a Congress that is not needed.

Obama makes his own laws, appoint his own people, does as he likes.

Why do we even need a third branch of Government. While we are at it lets let Obama do the work of the Supreme Court too, then we could save money by on shutting that down.

It’s good to be King /s/

We have just crossed a critical point in American government.
The republicans can now stop drawing lines in the sand.
They are now irrelevant.

The agency is known as the National Labor Relations Board, but it is actually the National Union Labor Relations Board and has been for most of my life. This is one agency that could be eliminated and no one would know the difference except there would be federal dollars saved.

What's a little mis-direction among friends on a busy news day.

The agency is known as the National Labor Relations Board

And after the Federal Reserve, it may be the most destructive governmental agency ever created. Even more so than the EPA and Dept. of Edumacation.

The house GOP doesn't have the testicles to cut their own finger nails.
