The lawsuit was not for Obama but to mollify the base Boener is scared so shitless of. Boener is rational enough to understand what Parkers is talking about, what is and is not politically feasible. However, he's way to scared of them to say so.
So he filed a lawsuit so he could tell that rabid base "see, I'm doing something" so they would stop pressuring him to impeach. Of course he knew the lawsuit would go nowhere. It was all kabuki theater for the Tea Baggers.
Now that the lawsuit has failed, the GOP will be under increasing pressure to impeach. The kabuki theater is over. It's like when Daffy Duck could only keep the Tazmanian Devil from killing him with music. He knew as soon as the music stopped, he was dead. He had to find some way of keeping the music going.
The lawsuit is over. The music has stopped. If they win the Senate, those calls will only get more demanding.
The GOP is caught between a rock and a hard place. If they reject the Tea Baggers, they get primaried. If they impeach, the results will be bad for them and the country.
No wonder Boener drinks.
