And if anyone knows what a stunt looks like it’s Barack Obama.
Via The Hill:
President Obama on Friday defiantly said he would not apologize for his use of executive power and dismissed House Speaker John Boehner’s (R-Ohio) planned lawsuit as a political ploy.
“I’m not going to apologize for trying to do something while they’re doing nothing,” Obama said in an interview with “Good Morning America.”
“The suit is a stunt,” he added.
On Wednesday, Boehner told reporters he was readying a federal lawsuit against the president for failures in upholding his constitutional duties.“What we’ve seen clearly over the last five years is an effort to erode the power of the legislative branch,” Boehner said. “I believe the president is not faithfully executing the laws of our country, and on behalf of the institution and the Constitution, standing up and fighting for this is in the best long-term interest of the Congress.”
