Mitt Romney, at a Fox News forum hosted by Mike Huckabee, said President Barack Obama?s recent recess appointments show that he ?wants to jam through whatever he?d like to do.?
?I think what we?ve just seen with the president is extra-Constitutional action,? Romney said in response to a question at the forum, airing on Fox News on Saturday from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m.

?[H]e is taking his friends and putting them into positions of power,? Romney continued.
?[P]erhaps the most egregious example of that is what?s happened with the National Labor Relations Board. He basically is paying back organized ? labor by taking unions? stooges, putting them into the National Labor Relations Board, so they?ll do his bidding and they?ll follow his policies.?
After applause, Romney broadened his critique to Obama?s dealings with Capitol Hill throughout his term.
?He came into office with a Democrat House and a Democrat Senate and didn?t think he needed to work across the aisle to build relationships and trust and respect with Republicans,? Romney said. ?And so he pushed through his agenda without respect of the feelings of the American people, and those that have been elected in the opposition party. And so now that you have a Republican House, he doesn?t like it anymore.
?He doesn?t want to have to work with both parties. He wants to jam through whatever he?d like to do without reference to the will of the American people and to our party. If I?m president of the United States, I?ve learned a lesson by being a governor in a state where there are few Democrats. My legislature was 85 percent Democrat. I learned I had to get along with the other guys and work with them. I will find common ground. I will follow the Constitution, and I will respect the people of America.?
