Since Congress prefers not to do its own job -- which consists of passing legislation designed to help govern the country -- it has decided to pursue a silly and frivolous lawsuit against President Obama for attempting to do his. This act is nothing more than inconsequential political theater, contrived because the Republican House already tried impeachment twenty years ago and it did not go well. Attacking Obamacare like this is dumb.
Another suit actually conforms to the rules for "cases in law and equity" designed by the Constitution. I don't agree with the plaintiffs, because I can't see why Obamacare is the abhorrent infringement on liberty they do. At least it's not stupid.
The Affordable Care Act is not Big Government, it's not an intrusion into anyone's life, but it is a big deal, and the courts may be one necessary venue for working it out. I do grow a little tired of the steady drum beat, though.
