House GOP files Obamacare suit
Washington (CNN) -- House Speaker John Boehner said Friday he has sued the Obama Administration in federal court over its decisions to make changes to the President's health care law, which congressional Republicans argue were unconstitutional.

The move was expected for months -- the GOP-controlled House of Representatives voted to approve the lawsuit in July. But Boehner had trouble retaining a law firm that would take the case because of the political furor over the controversial health care law.

"Time after time, the President has chosen to ignore the will of the American people and re-write federal law on his own without a vote of Congress. That's not the way our system of government was designed to work," Boehner said in statement on Friday.

Re: House GOP files Obamacare suit
Pathetic.

They have the power to repeal laws just as much as they do to pass them. They have the power to impeach Obama, his appointees, and even federal judges who protect him and instead they appeal to unelected lifetime serving judges?

I have never seen such a gutless congress. Absolutely pathetic.

Once power is taken by the government, it is never given back.

We will always, from now on, have obamacare, or some republican tweeked version. The Feds don't give up power that we the people give up and give them. NEVER.

So, the repubs, knowing it's unpopular, will pretend to go after it. They get to look like they are against it, while not giving up any federal power.

"But Boehner had trouble retaining a law firm that would take the case because of the political furor over the controversial health care law."

With Obama's use of the IRS and DOJ as political weapons, this is EASY to believe.
Any lawyer that takes this case also has to face the above, Endless Obama sycophant media attacks and anal examinations, and the threat of crazy libs attacking his family.

JUST LIKE IT WAS IN 1930's GERMANY, FOLKS.

Spot on. Great post.

Also the precedent that has been set with this presidency is that the president can do whatever the hell he wants and the only solution is an appeal to a singular judge to "rule" just like the president "rules".

We have allowed an oligarchy to solidify itself now and like you said, governments never ever give up power they have been given, usurped, or taken outright.
