Speaker of the House John Boehner announced a plan Wednesday to sue President Obama for his multiple violations of the Constitution and refusal to enforce the laws and uphold his oath of office.
Talk about late to the game.
The idea of suing the president raises mixed feelings, the first being anger that it took years for Boehner to do anything against our imperial president, the last being anger that the attempt is so feeble.
In between those two marking posts, I can understand something of Boehner's dilemma.
In the foremost place, the speaker is a man who simply doesn't move unless he truly has to. He didn't get the job because of his fire and energy. He got it because he waited in line, did all the committee assignments and in general, unlike the IRS, turned in his homework. He got the speakership simply because it was his turn. Boehner is practically the living embodiment of inertia.
