I think you are thinking of President Andrew Jackson.

Chief Justice John Marshall had initially opposed Jackson's election to the presidency, and in the Cherokee Indians case, Worcester v. Georgia (1832), Marshall infuriated Jackson by insisting that Georgia laws that purported to seize Cherokee lands on which gold had been found violated federal treaties. Jackson is famous for having responded: "John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it." Although the comment is probably apocryphal, both Georgia and Jackson simply ignored the decision.

“This is about defending the institution in which we serve,” ....“And what we’ve seen clearly over the last five years is an effort to erode the power of the legislative branch,” the Speaker continued

I'm absolutely sputtering with anger right now. The freakin' nerve of this dolt -- worrying about "defending the institution"????? I'm supposed to believe that crap??? Whining that an "effort" is underway to take away legislative power???? Boehner, you pathetic sorryass coward. You have THROWN IT AWAY WITH BOTH HANDS!!! Get the hell of our House, you sickening traitor.

Big freaking whoop. Why don’t’ you do what is constitutionally mandated for an out of control president and forget about the political consequences. Impeach the lawless sob.

This is what needs to happen: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3172101/posts?page=62#62

As you can see in the last few comments in that thread, it’s much kinder (and lawful) than what the Foreign Enemy Combatant’s own arguments allow...

To "impeach" is fundamentally a political process.

To "sue" is a judicial process.

“Boehner: House Will Sue Obama” must qualify as the most meaningless headline since “Dewey Defeats Truman”.

One of think the people of OH would be ashamed of this man, but not on your life. They want him pushed on the nation as a whole. OH voters are among the worst, voting all the time for useless politicians, with the exception of the late John Ashbrook and current Rep. Jim Jordan, and maybe one or two others.

I would disagree about effect. Once this starts....if any executive order comes up...a federal judge on this episode could freeze the effect of the executive order. The President could say that no judge can make that decision and continue on...thus quickly getting this within days to the Supreme Court. The Supremes might get a 5-4 say that the executive order goes against law passed by Congress, and freeze the executive order.

My humble opinion is that the President would immediately stand up and continue on. At that point, defying the court....he’d be up for impeachment. I think the four members of the left on the Supreme Court now realize this implication and sitting quietly trying to seek a better and more logical outcome to this.

Absolutely NO one wants Biden as President. Somehow, a rational understanding by the President has to be achieved, or this last two years of time will be like a ten thousand-ton anchor on the Democratic Party and dropping to the depths where return is not possible.

Perhaps the lawsuit will reach the docket in 2018, and 0bama and B0ehner can chuckle about it over the links.
