Complete Victory or Death
By Dr. Brian CarrThis afternoon the US House of Representatives has passed a resolution to sue President Barack Obama for allegedly exceeding his constitutional powers.
The 225-201 vote along party lines means House lawyers will now draft legal documents to launch a lawsuit.
While I do not think that this action is a wise use of our tax dollars I do believe that this further display of poor judgment, if not outright insanity, is beneficial to our political process.
The benefit comes in that this action will further tear apart the Republican Party, damaging their ability to field effective candidates.
