The GOP, which includes the Tea Party, is fighting President Obama's
every attempt to improve the USA economy, protect American consumers,
and act in the best interest of America and the American people The
GOP's strategy to hold the government hostage, demanding a GOP President
be put into the white house is more of a coup d'etat, than playing games.
President Obama has every right to make recess appointment, after
congress adjourns, as have all his predicessors. The GOP's claim that
the Senate is currently in session is a mockery of American government,
President Obama, and the Amereican people.

Excerpt:
Obama spokesman Dan Pfeiffer announced the recess appointment Wednesday,
saying the Senate was using “gimmick” sessions in an attempt to block
the president, tactics the White House said it would now ignore.
“The Senate has effectively been in recess for weeks, and is expected to
remain in recess for weeks,” Pfeiffer wrote in a statement on the White
House website. “In an overt attempt to prevent the President from
exercising his authority during this period, Republican Senators
insisted on using a gimmick called “pro forma” sessions, which are
sessions during which no Senate business is conducted and instead one or
two Senators simply gavel in and out of session in a matter of seconds.
But gimmicks do not override the President’s constitutional authority to
make appointments to keep the government running,” Pfeiffer added.
