More worrying evidence that John Boehner is weak tea indeed

He is considering going the lawsuit route to try to stop the Most Equal Comrade's amnesty-for-illegals-via-executive-order ploy.

Why?

While Boehner hasn’t officially ruled out using Congress’ power of the purse to stop Obama, that he is looking at either a new lawsuit or expanding the previous one he filed earlier in the year is a sign this is the main pathway he is looking to pursue.

“Things are fluid, but Boehner wants to respond forcefully and quickly should the president act and believes a lawsuit would do that,” Costa tweeted adding in another tweet that the lawsuit is now at the "front of Boehner's playbook" on executive amnesty.

Conservatives argue that Boehner's newly-announced lawsuit strategy is a surrender in the wake of a resounding election victory by Republicans—and that it means Boehner won’t pursue using the constitutionally-delegated power of the purse that Congress has.

“If Boehner thought the lawsuit was such a good strategy, why didn’t he include immigration in the original litany of complaints against the administration?” Daniel Horowitz of The Conservative Review told Breitbart News. “In reality, this is a red herring to distract from the only potent check on Obama’s lawlessness—using the power of the purse to fund government sans the lawless programs. As Boehner clearly told his conference, he agrees with Obama on amnesty and has given him the green light to go ahead without any consequential opposition.”

Rosemary Jenks of NumbersUSA said it’s time for Boehner to stand up to Obama instead of running to the courts for cover.

“It is long past time for Congress to stand up and defend its constitutional powers to rein in this imperial president,” Jenks said. “Congress doesn't need the courts. It needs to use its constitutional power of the purse to block funding for illegal power grabs like Obama's planned amnesty. Millions of Americans gave Republicans this mandate on November 4. It's time for Republicans to keep their campaign promises.”

By “campaign promises,” Jenks is referring to how Republican National Committee (RNC) chairman Reince Priebus promised to use any and all means necessary—including the power of the purse—to stop Obama’s amnesty if voters delivered the U.S. Senate to Republicans. Priebus doubled down on that promise, saying he stands by it, in a post-election interview after voters held up their end of the bargain.
