So I found the solution  to the problem. For some reason in the quickaccess.xml the one click approve  and publish button  aka the "right publishing  button" did not have the setting  to hide it if content approval  is not enabled.

To make the change I had to go into the CustomQuickAccess.xml file located in the Editing Menu folder of the master page gallery. I simply added the line HideStates="ContentApprovalEnabledFalse" to the appropriate node in the file as seen below:

    <ConsoleNode
       Sequence="120"
       Action="cms:OneClickPublishAction"
       HideStates="ContentApprovalEnabledFalse"
       RequiredStates="IsPublishingSiteTrue,IsMajorVersionFalse"
       DisplayText="cms,console_publish"
       UseResourceFile="true"
       ImageUrl="/_layouts/images/cnspub16.gif"
       ID="qaApprovePublish"/>
