Yep, hopefully Kennedy will go with conservatives on this and straighten out this recess appointment fiasco.

Obama will appeal everything to the SC, hoping one of the five conservative justices dies in the meantime. After that, he’s home-free even without control of the House of Representatives. He wouldn’t even need the 2014 elections, because some judicial way would be found to rubber-stamp anything he did through the Executive Branch.
We’re hanging by a thin thread here.

Maybe this round but the spoiled little POS assclown won’t give up until he gets his way. He needs to be impeached and thrown in prison along with his entire socialist administration.
His actions against our veterans is nothing but despicable.

If a conservative justice dies he’ll wait until the senate is in recess then appoint his SC justice.

So, skipping the en banc? I expected that. "In your face, chump!"

...assuming the court takes the case, which I doubt they will. I believe they only need four SCOTUS justices to agree to a writ of certiorari (i.e., to take the case) and there's a darn good chance the four left-leaning 'Rat appointees will sign off on that.
If the SCOTUS does take the case, anything is possible, as shown by Roberts' crass switch on Obamacare.
Hope they don't reverse, of course, and finally place some limit on Zero's power.

They should tell the stinking turd that he violated his oath and that he no longer in office,.

Think how badly we need six Clarence Thomases. Where is Robert Bork when you need him?
To: Cyber Liberty
Yep, he's the in your face type jerk.
Question if you know:
Being he skipped the en banc if SCOTUS doesn't take this appeal would both findings of the DC Court be final?

The DC Court of Appeals ruling is a pleasant history lesson of the appointments clause and separation of powers. It is thorough and 100% logic without a drip of leftwing idiocy.
If the usual four statists plus Kennedy find for Obama, they will blow the lid completely off what remains of our once republic and Constitution.
It will mean that ‘Bam can appoint whomever he wants, whenever he wants, including supreme court justices.
It will nearly complete the consolidation of government we have been heading for since the 17th Amendment.

This is a problem. You have all 3 branches of government engaged in a legal battle over a power struggle that could have been resolved by courtesy and respect for the rule of law.
Guess who's footing the bill for ALL of this B.S.?
