From wiki:

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is an independent agency of the United States government charged with conducting elections for labor union representation and with investigating and remedying unfair labor practices.[emphasis added]

In April 2009, President Obama nominated Craig Becker (Associate General Counsel of the Service Employees International Union) [SEIU]
--SNIP--
Becker's nomination appeared to fail on February 8, 2010, after Republican Senators (led by John McCain) threatened to filibuster his nomination.[6][11] President Obama said he would consider making recess appointments to the NLRB due to the Senate's failure to move on any of the three nominations.[11] True to his word, Obama on March 27, 2010 recess appointed both Becker and Pearce to the NLRB.[12]

Thanks for posting that. Yes, both Becker and Pearce were union slug attorneys and Obama pulled his same old crud to get them on the board.

Funny thing is, the NLRB was without a quorum for a while because the Senate refused to move ahead on any of Bush’s nominees.
