Royal Pains-in-the-ass

Obama to Senate:
Stick that in your advice and consent clause.
The chutzpah here is something to behold. The pride of Harvard Law School, Ms. Warren is a hero to the political left for proposing a new bureaucracy to micromanage the services that banks can offer consumers. But she is also so politically controversial that no less a liberal lion than Connecticut Senator Chris Dodd has warned the White House that she probably isn't confirmable. A President with more political and Constitutional scruple would have nominated someone else. Mr. Obama's choice is to appoint her anyway and dare the Senate to do something about it. - Elizabeth III

Obama's rehearsal

Obama exercising the royal prerogative?  Who knew?
