John Boehner finally shows his cards on his lawsuit against the President (nmbl)

.

He's suing over the ACA employer mandate delay (www.latimes.com)

Responses:

This seems lose-lose for the GOP. Either the delay is upheld (and the GOP gets egg on its face) or its not (and employers blame the GOP) -- nm - Mop (210 lbs) Jul 11, 07:48
So the delay Boehner wanted, the delay Obama gave, is now the delay Boehner says Obama shouldn't have given without Boehner's say-so? - TWuG Jul 11, 07:44 7
- Logic is playing no part in what Boehner is up to here - Brian Jul 11, 08:15
- Plus, I think he said it's not fair that employers get the mandate delay but individuals don't. So, it's unlawful yet he's in favor of expanding it. -- nm - mara Jul 11, 07:47 5
  - It's unlawful because it wasn't passed as a law. - Hunta Jul 11, 07:50 4
    - I think it's well within the Executive's power to delay implementation and enforcement. Implementation and enforcement are the Executive's job, not - TWuG Jul 11, 07:59 2
      - What does the law say? - Hunta Jul 11, 08:06 1
        
        What do Federal marijuana laws say? Or RICO statutes? The Feds make implementation and enforcement decisions - TWuG Jul 11, 08:13
    - Sure, I buy the unlawful part. I don't get why if he thinks it's unlawful, he would be in favor of expanding it. -- nm - mara Jul 11, 07:51
