Looks like this is the lesser of two evils to Boehner, he is not in the impeachment camp. It will be interesting which law firm they pick , maybe a connected lobbyist.

Well it's a waste of taxpayers money to begin with, what do they expect to accomplish.

I imagine some considered all the 9-0 lawsuits a waste.

Any conservative who has ever complained about wasting taxpayer money will look like a huge hypocrite for not objecting to our paying for this nonsense. The US electorate deserves total transparency as to the cost of this idiocy. All good Americans should contact Boehner and ask for an accounting. Do the morons in congress know that their 13% approval rate can still go lower? Let's just watch--it may end up as a negative number. Talk about frivolous lawsuits--this takes the cake.

Some things are not about the money.. When people learn that, they'd stop making a fool of themself pretending it is.

Speaker John Boehner's proposed lawsuit has no legs. He does not have standing to sue President Obama; and the congressional resolution authorizing him to sue the President is not effective to confer representative standing as it violates separation of powers limitations of the Constitution. The suit will be dismissed and any appeal denied.
