WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Wednesday limited the president's power to fill high-level vacancies with temporary appointments, ruling in favor of Senate Republicans in their partisan clash with President Barack Obama.

The court's first-ever case involving the Constitution's recess appointments clause ended in a unanimous decision holding that Obama's appointments to the National Labor Relations Board in 2012 without Senate confirmation were illegal. Obama invoked the Constitution's provision giving the president the power to make temporary appointments when the Senate is in recess.

Problem is, the court said, the Senate was not actually in a formal recess when Obama acted.

Obama had argued that the Senate was on an extended holiday break and that the brief sessions it held every three days were a sham that was intended to prevent him from filling seats on the NLRB.

The justices rejected that argument Wednesday..................................

Yes, other presidents have made recess appointments, but they did so legally....even the liberal SCOTUS, unanimously, viewed Obama's appointments, as illegal....he tried to slip it past everyone, and his azz got caught.

He's crumbling fast, and it's not over, yet....I think the IRS deal is what's going to be his nemesis....somebody is gonna turn over and squeal.
