“However, that couldn’t happen, simply because Carter Hull could not get confirmed by the Senate (takes 60 votes) if Obama were to act that stupidly”
Even after Reid changes the rules?
The truth is, freeangel, if Reid changed the rules, the House under even weak Republicans will refuse to consider anything the Senate passes under Reid’s rule, if it ever happens. Now in the confirmation case, it wouldn’t go to the House, only the Senate confirms nominees, but let me say this. There is no way even Senate Democrats would confirm CARTER HULL for ATTORNEY GENERAL if Holder resigned. Now they would confirm somebody else that we wouldn’t like, but they would not confirm someone who has just been fingered by a lower level employee in the IRS scandal. So right now I’ll limit my assurances to that one comment you made suggesting he could be moved up to Attorney General from being a DC lawyer with the IRS.
