Basically, I approve of Obama's motives. Perhaps not the way he did it, but certainly the move itself.

While it's a mere half-measure and I would've preferred we go all the way in granting amnesty, I'm glad the House is suing. If this was a usurpation of the legislative branch's power it should be dialed back.
For libs celebrating it: remember there will be a Republican POTUS again someday and once the cat's out of the bag it won't go back in. Any overstep of power should be checked regardless of what you think of the objective. This is far more important than any benefits that may come from an individual executive action.
