To those of you that insist the "voting doesn't work/there's no hope via politics" here's proof you are wrong.Rep. Jeff Landry (R-LA) has led a group of 77 Freshmen Republicans in
an effort to block President Obama’s use of the recess appointment for
the remainder of 2011.
The coalition letter to the House Republican leadership (pdf link) contains this pledge:
Rep. Landry’s statement, in part:
It is widely anticipated that the President will use a recess
appointment to name Elizabeth Warren the head of the new Consumer
Financial Protection Bureau, soon-to-be one of the most powerful
positions in the Federal government. This is very troubling considering
Warren wants the government to approve every credit transaction that
citizens enter into. If President Obama really wants to fill a position,
he should make his nomination and send it to the Senate.
