Becker gets recess appointment

President Obama will use recess appointments to by-pass Senate confirmation for 15 high level appointments including Craig Becker's appointment to the NLRB, as well as that of another Democrat, Mark Gaston Pearce.  The NLRB's press release is here. Interesting move in not appointing anyone to the 5th seat on the Board. As it stands now, Democrats are guaranteed to be the majority of every three member panel of the NLRB.
