Recess appointments are common that's for sure.
What you're missing is. Congress is NOT on recess. Clinton had drawn up a rule that Congress needed to be at Recess for a minimum of 3 day for him to be able to appoint a "recess appointment"
Prior to Clinton is was a 10 day rule.
The thing that's pissing off congress is Obama made this "recess appointment when congress was just in session the day before he made this appointment.
He didn't follow the 3 day rule, and congress technically isn't at recess. Congress is still in session.
This seems pretty clear to me that Obama is going to do exactly what Obama wants and the congress can kiss the fattest part of his ass as far as he's concerned.
