Another effort to dump the Constitution in favor of a Garland appointment

From Hot Air:

Barack Obama’s full court media press to try to force Merrick Garland onto the Supreme Court has gone essentially nowhere. The process doesn’t even shift into gear unless Chuck Grassley agrees to kick things off in his committee, and he came out as recently as Thursday saying that he would not flip-flop on his decision. But don’t expect the liberal pressure brigade to give up the fight so easily. The Washington Post had dredged up one legal expert, Gregory L. Diskant by name, who argues this week that the Constitution allows for Barack Obama to appoint Garland anyway, and he’s not talking about a recess appointment here. He argues that the wording of the Constitution should somehow allow the President to skip the confirmation process entirely and simply place Garland on the bench.

This is a sign of desperation by the liberals. Whne the situation is reversed ion the future, I hope some conservative pulls this article out and rubs someone like Chick Schumer's nose in it.
