Even if Corday is deemed to be recess-appointed, he may have another problem.

The text of the Dodd-Frank law [that created the CFPB] states that the director’s powers will not take effect until the CFPB director “is confirmed by the Senate.”

If it is a recess appointment, the Senate is not in session and he was not confirmed. His recess appointment lasts until the end of the current Congress.

No confirmation = no powers to perform duties through the end of the current Congress.

Obama cannot have it both ways - he cannot claim a recess appointment AND claim that Corday was confirmed by the Senate.

Yet still, like the typical leftist he IS, he’ll try.

Are “We, the People”, really going to sit back, do nothing and allow this BS to stand?

“Obama cannot have it both ways - he cannot claim a recess appointment AND claim that Corday was confirmed by the Senate.”
