OT maybe, but I think I heard Judge Napolitano yesterday say the only way we can have government action declared unconstitutional is to allow the action to go into effect and then prove that we have been harmed by it. That would give us “standing.”
Please correct me if I’m wrong - I must be wrong because this can’t possibly be correct. If it is, that means we have no way of curbing this out-of-control administration. Isn’t this what checks and balances are intended to do?

It's been a long, long time since checks and balances were functional. Congress has ceded it's power to the executive and the judiciary.

Does this all finally give “standing” to Philip Berg with his Aug 2008 lawsuit over NObama’s birth certificate?

They cannot have it both ways.
