GOP Fuming Over Recess Appointment of Lawyer Who Compared 9/11 to Drug Trade - FoxNews.com

GOP Fuming Over Recess Appointment of Lawyer Who Compared 9/11 to Drug Trade - FoxNews.com: "President Obama has outraged Republicans by directly appointing six officials this week without the consent of Congress, including his pick for deputy attorney general, who once compared the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks to the drug trade.

The president announced the so-called recess appointments Wednesday, using his power to install sidelined nominees while Congress is on break. They will still need to be confirmed by the Senate before the end of the next session, but the recess appointments allow Obama to break a series of logjams and fill positions that have been vacant for months."
