[h=1]Obama threatens vetoes of bills requiring him to follow the law[/h]

President Obama is threatening to veto a law that would allow Congress to sue him in federal courts for arbitrarily changing or refusing to enforce federal laws because it "violates the separation of powers" by encroaching on his presidential authority.
"[T]he power the bill purports to assign to Congress to sue the President over whether he has properly discharged his constitutional obligation to take care that the laws be faithfully executed exceeds constitutional limitations," the White House Office of Management and Budget said Wednesday in a statement of administration policy. "Congress may not assign such power to itself, nor may it assign to the courts the task of resolving such generalized political disputes."

Looks like you answered your own question...

"Congress may not assign such power to itself, nor may it assign to the courts the task of resolving such generalized political disputes."

So obeying the law (which is the Constitution) is a political dispute ?.....

Does Congress have to obey the laws....or can they just say, 'fuck it' like Obama ?

Righties creating a law that lets them sue the President because they don't feel he is obeying the law makes it a political dispute.
 
It's like the republicans in congress are surprised by how a bill becomes a law. I bet they're confused by conjunction junction as well.
 
showboating, for the sake of showboating. congress has a method for dealing with a president who doesn't follow the law. If they have a good case, impeach him. then you can show americans who the lockstep idiots are when they defend his lawless actions.
