I must have missed the part of the constitution that said “advice or consent of the senate unless Barbra Streisand thinks otherwise”....

[MayflowerMadam]

Yeah, Obama. Do it. One MORE thing we can ridicule until you’re history in January.

By the Constitution, Obama can make a recess appointment. That appointment is effective until the end of the next Congressional session.

There is no definition of a Congressional session in the Constitution, but that is left up to Congress to decide, the word session appearing only 3 times.

Therefore, if Obama abuses the recess appointment, Congress can respond by beginning in 2017 announcing a session lasting until the day after Trump’s inauguration, a one day recess, and then a new session.

Any recess appointment being good only until the beginning of the next session of Congress.

Hardball can be played by both sides.

I have a better idea.... As long as she thinks it’s OK to ignore the Constitution and give the President this power, how about Trump fires Ginsburg, Sotomeyer, Kagan and Breyer once he takes office and replaces them with real justices?

The Streisand effect is the phenomenon whereby an attempt to hide, remove, or censor a piece of information has the unintended consequence of publicizing the information more widely, usually facilitated by the Internet.

The information in the present context being the Constitution.

>>bypass Congress and unilaterally appoint his pick for the U.S. Supreme Court.

Well, isn't that how the cohorts of  the "revolutionary" character she played in Fiddler on the Roof did things?

Babs exemplifies the typical character (or lack thereof) of an Artist struggling to be imitated.

Maybe she can sell her fathers cow, buy a bus ticket, and GTFOOA?

[Buckeye McFrog]

Well he’s gotten away with being a phone-and-pen dictator for eight years. So you can’t really blame her for thinking he can do this.

Buzzy Ruth the lil gargoyle who made it to the SCOTUS courtesy of the Clintoons. Prolly Hellary picked her out too. Thank God Almighty that wicked witch lost.

I remember reading that Ruth Bader Ginsberg was not actually first on the list for the Clintons.

Top of the list was Stephen Breyer (who of course would be appointed later, following Ginsberg). He was favored by Ted Kennedy or some other powerful NE Dem pol.

The story was, Bill Clinton met with Breyer for lunch and took an immediate dislike to him. Breyer was pompous and condescending. Ginsberg apparently less so. Ergo, Ginsberg got picked first.

What a complete LIB idiot...and her singing has always sucked.

[1Old Pro]

Why is she so afraid of the constitution.

[SkyPilot]

How about we “bypass” you Babs. Go back to your Malibu mansion.

[Godebert]

What the heck is this nasty Yenta still doing in our country? Didn’t she promise to leave if Donald J. Trump became President? Deport this un-American skank to Venezuela.

[sarasota]

Yeah, right away Babs.
