Just because you have the power, does not mean you should wield it. Congress is there for checks and balances. Go around them too often and it will cause troubles - and it does not matter which party controls Congress or White House at the time.
I will admit ignorance on this topic but if the Dems have a majority, how is it the Repubs can cause this many issues with confirmations? For the record, I hate the fucking confirmation process - well, actually I hate those involved in the confirmation process, there seems to be no concessions from either side, it always seems like an all or none type thing. Drives me nuts.
