Boehner explains his stupid strategy

Republicans don’t like being the majority party in Congress. That has to be the answer – because whenever Democrats show the American public how their political solutions are intellectually vacuous, and Americans begin to understand how Democrats have no idea how to lead this country, the Republicans do something stupid to screw up an election. I guess it’s House Speaker John Boehner’s turn to do something stupid. He tried to explain the inexplicable in CNN yesterday;

ater this month, we will bring legislation to the House floor that would authorize the House of Representatives to file suit in an effort to compel President Obama to follow his oath of office and faithfully execute the laws of our country.

What’s disappointing is the President’s flippant dismissal of the Constitution we are both sworn to defend. It is utterly beneath the dignity of the office. I know the President is frustrated. I’m frustrated. The American people are frustrated, too.

Boenher goes on to explain how screwed up the economy, unemployment, our foreign policy, our national security, our energy policy have all suffered under this administration for the last four years. I agree with all of that, but a solution doesn’t reside in the judicial system. It reminds me of the Clinton years when the Republicans, for more than two years focused entirely on impeaching the President instead of taking advantage of their position to return the government to the People.

Basically, Boehner is hoping to pit all three branches of government against each other in a huge power struggle. Actually, the courts put the Obama Administration in it’s place without the legislative branch last week when the president overreached his grasp. Of course, the Obama Administration doubled down on their wrist slapping by looking more ridiculous and announced their intention to use Executive orders to bypass the Constitution.

It’s been my habit, when an intellectual opponent is doing their best to look like an idiot – I stand back and let them go at it. Public opinion of this President is slipping rapidly. Gas prices are soaring, unemployment and the economy seem to be stagnant, pajama-clad goat ropers make fun of our national security, illegal immigrants flaunt our laws. While I feel Mr. Boehner’s frustration, he doesn’t do the President’s opposition any favors by waving his arms and pleading with us to look at his own idiotic antics instead.
