Interesting ruling.  If you have a 10 day break, then it's ok.  3 days just wasnt long enough.  At least that is how I read it.  Wonder how they came up with that?

 

The framers of the Constitution came up with it.  Shame he didn't read it.

What, a weekend break is not considered Congress being out of session? Heck, maybe if they recessed for the night he could simply make his appointments at 2:00am and call it good.

Also interesting from the article

Obama has made relatively few recess appointments, 32 in his four-plus years in office, according to the Congressional Research Service. President George W. Bush made 171 such appointments over two terms and President Bill Clinton filled 139 posts that way in his eight years in office, the research service said.
