Obama, scolding GOP, makes 15 appointments

Obama, scolding GOP, makes 15 appointments
"The Constitution gives presidents the power to appoint nominees who would otherwise require Senate confirmation while the chamber is in recess.
The appointments expire at the end the next legislative session, which in this case means the end of 2011.

Mr. Becker, a former AFL-CIO and Service Employees International Union lawyer, has been the target of fierce opposition as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other business groups have warned he would pursue union interests at the expense of employers, including a stalled piece of legislation that would make union organizing easier."

Two points.
The phrase "legislation that would make union organizing easier" is the destruction of the secret ballot in union elections known as "card check".
Card check is back folks.
And it is as anti-American as any piece of legislation ever proposed in our country.

The republican party leaders should have seen this coming.
Did they know and simply dodge the issue?
Or were they scammed again because they're a bunch of lazy fools?
Either way, we need more change in the party.
