@CFinNaples I was going to say President Obama was technically wrong in his recess appointment of CFPB Director Cordray (as much as I support the action in theory). But you bring up a very interesting point. I hope the Republicans do bring it before the Supreme Court. The justices will be forced to rule in favor of Article 2.
If there's a question about whether or not Congress was adjourned, the issue is decided NOT by the Supreme Court, but BY THE PRESIDENT according to Article 2 section 3 of the Constitution: "in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper"
Mitch McConnell also publically said that his #1 job is to NOT work with President Obama on ANYTHING and make him a 1 term President. Considering the millions of struggling Americans we have, thats a VERY un-patriotic position to take. What ever happened to country BEFORE party?

Go ahead, McConnell: MAKE OUR DAY.
