    Diplomatic immunity applies to foreign diplomats, not presidents. The difficulty will be in proving the house or the whole congress has standing to sue.

    The lawsuit will not take years. It will be thrown out immediately because Obama has diplomatic immunity, as do all other politicians.

    You can't sue politicians simply because you disagree with the policies they implemented. There's this thing called diplomatic immunity. Apparently John Boehner isn't aware of it...

    Bullshit!

    This is yet another chess move by the GOP establishment.

    The GOP establishment knows that the base is *pissed* about their treachery in the Mississippi primary.

    This is no more than a bone to keep us from kicking them to the curb.

    Boehner's going to sue!
    Whoop-dee-shit!
    A symbolic lawsuit that'll take years and never be resolved.

    Abandon the GOP.
    Throw all the bums out.
    Impeach Obama.
