The beginning of an overt "constitutional crisis" as Obama works to for fundamental transformation.


On Wednesday afternoon, the current President of the United States did what may be described as an unconstitutional end run around the United States Senate by “recess appointing” three nominees to the National Labor Relations Board (as well as to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) even though the Senate is not in recess. House Republican,  John Kline,  released this statement:  

“President Obama’s stunning move to install not one but three new members to the National Labor Relations Board without a hearing or a vote in the United States Senate is an unprecedented abuse of power and an affront to the will of the American people.
“For months, workers and employers have expressed outrage over the board’s job-destroying actions, and in response, the House of Representatives took definitive action to rein in the NLRB’s activist agenda through two pieces of bipartisan legislation. Now, the president has taken matters into his own hands, unilaterally selecting new board members without allowing the Senate or the public any opportunity to consider their qualifications for this important position.
“Make no mistake – each and every decision issued by this board will be tainted by the president’s actions. I will continue to pursue aggressive oversight of the NLRB and take any action necessary to protect the rights of workers and employers.”

A SEIU representative praised the action in a statement (below) showing a total disregard for the Constitution and a political process Democrats and Republicans have used for more than 200 years.  When SEIU uses the phrase “standing for workers,” it means to exclude all of the labor force that is not of union membership.  The words are scatological in scope and nature and intended to deceive. 
I am sure that it will be fine,  with these Marxists,  if we use their tactics after assuming power,  whenever that happens.  No ??  Understand that what is “bypassed” are accepted Congressional procedures.  The clowns at SEIU want you to believe that the GOP made up the rules that govern congress,  when,  in fact, it is the SEIU and ass-ociates who are rewriting the rules of governance. 

President Obama Stands With Working Families
Today President Obama appointed three new members to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and in doing so took a strong stand for workers around the country.The appointments bypasses the predictable Republican filibusters or other obstructionist measures they would employ. There is no doubt that if given the shot, the GOP would have done away with the Board entirely, probably the very worst thing working families need right now
