It's like Harry Reid running around proclaiming the border is secure and all the stories about the failures of "Obamacare" are lies. The Republicans don't have to say a word. Harry brain is doing it for them.
I think the lawsuit is also a bad idea. Spend the energy on putting together some corrective legislation to pass the House and put on Harry's desk .. let everyone know its coming and when it gets there. Then let everyone know Harry ain't doing shit about it.
Doing productive and positive things is a more "effective weapon" today.
