President Barack Obama is giving senators and some top federal officials a break. He signed a bill that cuts the number of positions that need Senate confirmation. That means 170 civilian workers won't have to go through the nerve-wracking and time-consuming process. Lawmakers easily approved the measure. Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) said it would cut back on "executive branch Swiss cheese," referring to the open positions at agencies while nominees wait for Senate confirmation.

Great, so we can get more moronic appointments from this administration sans checks and balances.
Executive branch is attempting to swindle away more power from the legislative branch. Plain and simple.
Not "attempting"....
He is.
It just got a whole lot easier to fill the administration with a bunch of anti american left wing yes-men for obama
