“.if ANY Republican President had done this the media would be up in arms..isnt what Obama doing illegal? How the hell can he get away with this?”
Republican presidents have done the exact same thing in the past and no media was up in arms and it was not illegal.
However, it is an overreach of Executive Power when it is done by a Democratic president or a Republican president.
But, if you were to review threads concerning Bush’s Recess Appointments, you would find overwhelming approval except for a few of us true conservatives who are willing to condemn any president who uses such powers.
Thank you for clarifying everything. I was not very familiar with this process so didnt know how it works. Appreciate you letting me know
