The Patriot Post® · GOP Hires Law Firm, Sets Budget for Lawsuit

Republicans in Congress are taking the next steps in their plan to sue Barack Obama for abuse of power. ABC News reports, “The House of Representatives has hired Baker & Hostetler, one of America’s largest law firms, to the tune of $500 an hour, but a total not to exceed $350,000, to represent the lower chamber in its lawsuit against President Obama.” Democrats are blasting Republicans for wasting taxpayer money. “House Republicans continue to waste time and taxpayer dollars,” complained House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. “Americans are tired of election-year stunts.” And if anyone knows about election-year stunts and wasting taxpayer dollars, it’s Democrats. While the lawsuit may not be the best course for the GOP to take, it at least serves to highlight Obama’s lawlessness, which we think is rather important to consider come election time.
