Who framed and ratified the constitution . Because if they had thought about that, theres a real chance the senate may take a twomonth break right. Over christmas. Would there be any reason why they wouldnt have wanted the recess appointment power to apply there as well as at the end of the session .

They consider that a meeting, its a meeting. What do we do . Or there is another option, Justice Breyer. Would you write that opinion, saying th...

The executive was by rejecting the notion that the appointment power should reside with the senate. The framers considered that and they rejected it. And the reason they rejected it, as this court noted in its edmund opinion, was to protect the executive against encroachment by the legislature. But the compromise they settled on in moving away from that is that the president will nominate and the senate, if it so chooses, can confirm a nominee. You spoke of the intransigence of the senate.
