House Lawsuit against Obama

The issue behind a lawsuit is one of discussed is REDRESS – the legal remedy which would make the injured party whole…

The law firm of Baker & Hostetler has been retained to prepare the  case – with a reported guarantee of $350,000 for work done before new Congress convenes in 2015.  Apart for whatever nonsense argument they invoke to justify that money, what would they have the Court do to correct whatever alleged wrong was done?

The case relies on the actions of the Chief Executive, and not the private actions of citizen Obama.   Therefore, monetary damages would be paid by the Federal government – so Congress would need to appropriate funds to pay the judgment on the lawsuit it brought. (OK I mentioned that in a posting when this nonsense was first mentioned, but now lawyers are involved and they will need to tell the court the answer.)

Removal of Obama requires Impeachment, which the House has, via the lawsuit, demonstrated it has no grounds to seek.   Even a court victory would not provide grounds.

QUESTION: Does Baker & Hostetler contribute to GOP?

If so, this is a great means of providing the capital.  Even assuming a 35% tax rate, the guarantee would reimburse a quarter million in campaign contributions, or make an addition quarter million available for last minute donation prior to November. 

Basically, a great way to launder federal funds to support a political party facing election in two months.

Sue Obama for being Chief Executive?

The Republicans have gone completely crazy, they are suing Obama for not implementing ACA (Obamacare) fast enoguh – while also trying to have the law repealed 54 times.

Sow which is it?  Do they want it implemented as fast as possible?  Or NOT implemented at all?

Next we have the idea of a lawsuit.  The House of Representatives is charged with IMPEACHING any president who violates the authorities associated with his office.  But how do they get STANDING to sue him?  Were they personally damaged by the speed, or lack there of, of implementation of Obamacare?

Also: If the lawsuit were to somehow pass basic Legal and Constitutional  muster, would there be some form of damages assessed?

We know they cannot remove him from office – that’s Impeachment and the case needs to be made in the Senate – not the civil court.

But let’s say damages were imposed:  Obama is functioning as the President, therefore the employer must pay; that means the Government; that means the House of Representatives must authorize the payment – if they fail to, they they would be in contempt of court for not authorizing payment to themselves.

?????? HUM ??????

Congress is suing itself for damages?

Is that Legally allowed – is it Constitutional?
