We loathed and despised Obama’s getting around the constitutional requirement for confirmation. Let’s not support more corrupt politics just because it’s our guy. I hope Trump refuses.

Go read your Constitution. You’ll find a recess appointment is a Constitutionalally enumerated right of the President. Obama used it illegally in that he made recess appointments when the Senate was not technically out of session. He got called on it by SCOTUS, unanimously.

It’s almost as if Trump hasn’t already well established his ability to manipulate the pathological lying msm by setting up bogus kurfuffles in his admin.

And, it is sad to see so many still on their knees sucking down and swallowing whatever the pathological liars of the msm make up and pump out through their feed tubes.

You seem to want Trump to play nice, that would be a good thing, but only if they did the same. When we play nice we get: Romney, McCain, Dole as our candidates. I’m tired of playing nice. It is time to kick a$$ and start taking names.

There is no Constitutional requirement for confirmation.

This is bad thinking because it assumes that Democrats are humans who will fight fair if we do.

Conservatives need to come to grips with the fact that the Democrats are never going to play fair. If we're going to win, we need to crush them completely, and to think in terms of "the ends justify the means," rather than obsessing over obeying rules our enemies will destroy given half a chance anyway.
