This is a unique situation as the balance is designed to be maintained by defunding opposed legislation and actions by the president. What makes this almost impossible is that the Dems make outrageous lies and claim them as the potential outcome every time the repubs try to withold money. This is only possible with cooperation of the media who is in the tanl for obama. Instead of taking the dems claims of impending disaster and investigating as journalists are expected to do, they simply go silent and market the lies and false claims in a one sided manner.
The press/media and the dems have colluded to prevent the legislative branch from exercising its power.
Lawsuit is an act of desperation prompted by the media propagandists.

Damn that Fox News (the number one most watched cable news network for over a decade, as the right keeps reminding us) and the virtual monopoly of rightwing talk radio for "colluding" with the Democrats! You Conservatives should get on them and make them stop being "in the tank" for Obama.

No, it's to keep the lunatics busy, now that Obamacare is working, Benghazi has faded to nothingness and the IRS "scandal" is fizzling. Got to keep the children distracted somehow so they don't cause more headaches for the GOP.

These moves leave moderates like myself confused about the R's strategy for the future. Instead of introducing alternative legislation, or legitimately moving to impeach, they once again choose political games that go nowhere. They know it will not go anywhere.
For those of us who don't support all of the president's moves, this is the alternative they offer?

They can not impeach as the senate would never have votes to convict , so impeaching would just bring up the race card a lose lose so they know better. So that leaves them what todo when two branches of the government have a problem , that is what the judicial branch is for
The congress has done less than any other Congress in history and now they're suing POTUS because he's actually doing something. That's genius. It's so hard to be a conservative in this country.
A prominent law professor and avowed supporter of the Obama White House will tell the House on Wednesday that the president has created one of the biggest constitutional crises in the country’s history and will endorse House Republicans’ effort to sue to rein him in.
Jonathan Turley, a professor at George Washington University, will say President Obama is trampling the founders’ vision for the country in his push to circumvent Congress, and he will demand Republicans and Democrats alike forget their party labels to unify against this White House’s power grab.
“What we are witnessing today is one of the greatest challenges to our constitutional system in the history of this country,” Mr. Turley said in a prepared testimony, saying it began with previous presidents but under Mr. Obama has “reached a constitutional tipping point that threatens a fundamental change in how our country is governed.”
