Boehner to sue Obama for executive actions

Post by ASUG8 »

House Speaker John Boehner confirmed Wednesday he plans to file a lawsuit against President Barack Obama in the coming days, in a bold attempt to challenge the administration's heavy use of executive actions to further its agenda.
Boehner sent a memo to the House Republican conference on Wednesday informing of his plans to file legislation in July that would allow the House of Representatives to file suit to compel Obama to "faithfully execute the laws of our country."

"Everywhere I go in America outside of Washington, D.C., I’m asked: when will the House stand up on behalf of the people to stop the encroachment of executive power under President Obama? We elected a president, Americans note; we didn’t elect a monarch or king," Boehner wrote in the memo.
Boehner did not announce which executive actions he would target as part of the lawsuit. Obama, however, has given House Republicans plenty of potential material. He has made 2014 a self-proclaimed "year of action," issuing executive orders on everything from the minimum wage to federal pay discrimination. Perhaps the most controversial administrative-only move this year came in the form of newly announced regulations from the Environmental Protection Agency on carbon emissions.

Republicans have also roundly criticized Obama for taking administrative action to delay parts of the Affordable Care Act, most notably the so-called employer mandate. In 2012, he also took action to stem the tide of deportations of undocumented immigrants who came to the country as children, a policy for which he has taken heat in light of the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border.

i thought conks hated frivolous lawsuits



And, also... Obama had the fewest executive orders in his first term than anyone since at least post-WWII. On pace for lowest overall for a 2 term president for 100 years.

:lol:

Leave it to lubejob to post an irrelevant statistic. :roll:

It has nothing to do with the number of Executive Orders, but the scope of the orders.
The President does not have the power to unilaterally change a law (through an Executive Order) that has already been passed by Congress and signed by the President...even the same President who signed the law in the first place.

For example, say Obama was the President in 2006, Congress passed then Obama signed the DREAM Act into law, and then a Conk president a few years later issued an Executive Order to reverse the act and start deporting illegals. The Donkophiles would be rioting in the streets right about now. The fucking media would be going ape shit and demanding for impeachment. Every newscast would spend half of its time covering the illegal acts of the Conk in charge, and every major newspaper would lead with 6" headlines.

The spoiler is that Obama did the exact same thing but in reverse, and there hasn't even been a whisper said about it in the mainstream press. :ohno:

Ignore the jerk, grizza. That's the first deal they go for. Heck, to listen to a liberal, everyone who voted against Obama is a racist...even if they voted for Alan Keyes, Allen West, etc. You have to toe THEIR definition of things, or you're in violation. Liberals are the most arrogant bastards in history....

Wrong. Bush, Obama, Clinton, etc.... it's highly suspect regardless. You shouldn't lump everyone that votes R or D into one group. That's not very tolerant.



Btw, Bush has been out of office for 5 years. Get over it.
