A few weeks ago Obama made some illegal non-recess appointments and GOP phonies pretended to care. We know the GOP doesn't want the White House, now it looks like they don't want the Senate either.
2/9/12, "A Senate Full of Squishes," Daniel Horowitz, RedState.com
"When Obama announced his illegal appointments to executive positions last month, Republicans shook their fists heavenward and pledged to vigorously challenge those nominations. Well, instead of engaging in vapid rhetorical promises, Senator Mike Lee took action. He pledged to block all of Obama’s judicial nominations until he agrees to rescind his illegal appointees and resubmit them for confirmation before the full Senate.
Unfortunately, Senator Lee is like a general without an army. The Senate voted on a nomination for a federal district court, yet only 5 others joined him. They were Senators DeMint, Crapo, Paul, Risch, and Shelby. I’m sure that will send a powerful message to Obama and serve as a strong deterrent against future illegal appointments."...

Ed. note: A commenter pointed out that "squish" doesn't quite describe these individuals.
