Obama’s illegal power grab (99% of media is ignoring Hussein's unconstitutional action)
Washington Times ^ | 01.05.12 | E Miller

Posted on 01/06/2012 3:45:37 AM PST by Recovering_Democrat

Richard Cordray started his new job on Thursday as director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). Though he may wear that fancy new title, he lacks the statutory power and constitutional authority of the office.

On Wednesday, after the Senate adjourned for one day, President Obama unilaterally installed Mr. Cordray to the CFPB and added three members to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), claiming these were “recess appointments” even though the Senate was in pro-forma session, not recess.

I'm placing my bet on he's trying to force an impeachment.

I expect there to be a whole series of crimes coming directly from Zippo, each bigger than the last.

“I’m placing my bet on he’s trying to force an impeachment.”

King obuma wants chaos, violence and death. It’s the SOP of every meglomaniac and their fanatical followers who try to seize dictatorial control. But their insane meglomania destroys their ability to see any bad consequences of their actions. Qaddhafi found that out the hard way.

Qaddafi’s life ended face-down on the hood of an SUV. It’s believed a militia member killed him with the gold-plated gun Qaddafi wore.

His elitist guards were dragged into the streets and shot and hanged. His chief of the army was butchered in Tripoli. His mercenaries were gunned down, and the city they lived in was destroyed. The army officers loyal to Qaddafi were hunted down. Today, thousands of Qaddafi loyalists are sitting in private jails run by militias. Their fate is unknown.

What happened in Libya has terrified the criminal fascist syndicate in Washington. More than half of Libya’s army deserted the Tripoli government after Qaddafi ordered them to fire on Libyan civilians. They joined the provincial militias, which is equivalent to our states’ guard.

The entire Libyan incident has scared the crap out of Washington.

Yes, but his opposition knows impeachment would allow him to play victim, serve to distract, and energize his supporters - and be counterproductive given his control of the Senate. I’ll bet it won’t happen.

Agreed. If it is even talked about the MSM, along w/ DOJ tool Holder will be screaming that it is just racially motivated. Remember, if you don’t agree w/ 0, it’s not because he’s wrong it’s because you’re racist!

This man is beyond embarrassing. How anyone with functioning brain cells can still support him is a mystery for the ages.

Writing an editorial is doing NOTHING. I am correct and in a week when nothing has been done about this... not even statements against obama... I will be proved correct. boehner has NEVER done anything but lie to the base and conspire with satan behind closed doors... super committee proves that point.

One would think a ‘constitutional scholar’ would respect the document a bit more than he does.

The House has grounds too, because they must concur on when a recess occurs. This issue isn't about the appointments, it's about Obama grabbing the power to determine when Congress is or is not in recess.

You are correct—mine was a facetious comment. Both Boehner’s and McConnell’s responses are lame.
