When Scotus either throws out the suit, or finds that it is up to congress to deal with political questions, the rats will claim a terrific victory.

It will be used to vindicate their lie that all opposition to Him is racist.

“Why are people saying that what Obama does against the Constitution automatically becomes legal once he does it?”

I think one answer to your question is: precedence. Not that it makes future Infringements legal, but they’re more likely to happen again and again, and with greater but incremental impact.

So, like everything else, we must deal with the abuse of power some day. Get it over with now, while it still might be possible for an opposition party to win an election.

That’s the point, isn’t it?

Exactly - can't have that pesky document of negative rights that restricts the government hanging around. It's to dang.........restrictive dammit.

Odumbo is a threat to this entire nation, not just our Constitution, which to him is only “old toilet paper”.

Turley To Testify In House Hearing On Authorization Of Congressional Lawsuit

http://jonathanturley.org/2014/07/16/turley-to-testify-in-house-hearing-on-authorization-of-congressional-lawsuit/

This morning I will be testifying as the lead witness before the House Rules Committee on the authorization of litigation by the House of Representatives to challenge the unilateral actions of President Obama. The authorization makes it clear that the House will focus on the ACA changes. The hearing will begin at 10 am in H-313 in The Capitol building. It will be aired live on C-Span 3.

A democrat supporter of the White House (read supporter of Obama and President Jarrett) agrees with Crybaby Boehner that Obama should be sued for his many breaches of Constitutional directives.

Of course he does.
He is working for the opposition.

Obama and his henchmen know that a lawsuit will give him time to do all the damage he has lined up as it will still be being fought in the courts when he leaves office, and then dismissed.

Obama has committed MANY UN-Constitutional crimes and is MORE than eligible to be IMPEACHED!

The cowardly house members will diddle around and not do what we ELECTED them to do.

Namely see that the government is run by the Constitution and if not impeachment proceedings should be started.

NOW!
