A majority of Americans disapprove of the House Republican lawsuit against President Barack Obama, which charges that he overstepped his authority in failing to enforce the Affordable Care Act in a timely manner, according to a new CBS News poll.
The House of Representatives voted last week along party lines to authorize Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) to file a suit forcing the president to enforce the law -- in particular the mandate on employers who do not provide health care coverage. Five Republicans joined all Democrats in opposition to the lawsuit.
In the CBS poll, released Wednesday, 54 percent of Americans said they disapproved of the suit, while 37 percent said they approved of it. A similar poll conducted by CNN last month found that Americans disapprove of the GOP effort against the president by a 57 percent to 41 percent margin.

Former Military Intelligence head Amos Yadlin on Saturday urged President Barack Obama to visit Israel to allay fears that the US is not fully committed to stopping the Iranian nuclear program.
?The US president should visit Israel and tell its leadership ? and, more important, its people ? that preventing a nuclear Iran is a US interest, and if we have to resort to military action, we will,? Yadlin said in an opinion piece published in The Washington Post.
Yadlin also asked the US to provide Israel with advanced military technology and intelligence, contingent on Israeli pledges to delay a strike.
Yadlin presented a five-point plan to the Obama administration designed to convince ?allies and adversaries alike that military action is real, imminent and doable.?
He called on Obama to notify Congress in writing that he reserves the right to use military force on Iran. He added that the US should increase its military presence in the Persian Gulf, and should also publicly commit to the security of its allies in the region.
Yadlin, who left his IDF post in 2010 and is currently the head of the Institute for National Security Studies, has been a vocal supporter of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who have both hinted that Israel would not leave the fate of Israel in the hands of the US.
?Israel cannot afford to outsource its security to another country,? Yadlin wrote in the Washington Post. ?But if the United States wants Israel to give sanctions and diplomacy more time, Israelis must know that they will not be left high and dry if these options fail.?
Yadlin, one of the pilots who took part in the 1981 attack on Iraq?s Osirak nuclear reactor, hinted that Israel was capable of hitting the heart of the Iranian nuclear program, but said Israel would need US support ?both the day after and the decade after a strike.?

We will delay a strike for continued diplomacy if you give us another ..........
wtf blackmail is that
oh oh oh and We the mighty Israel will strike on our own if you will not commit to us.
They will be wiped off the map if they dont have America behind them and they know it.
Yeh drag us into WWIII Israel . you know you have to .
Iran is just not going to nuke them even if they get the bomb. It is going to equalize things in the middle east.
Palestine, jordan, egypt, would all be affected horribly by Iran setting off a nuke in Israel. And Iran would not have the knowledge to have a really good nuke. It would be kind of a modified one that could carry radioactivity to the gold dome and Jeruselum.
Come on they aint going to do that.
Yeh go strike on your own Israel.
its pathetic they have to have America to fight and pay for all their military battles.
I have a newphew in Afghanistan and I do not want him shipped to Iran . His tour is over in Feb
.................................................................................
finally a President who hasnt licked the boots of the Isralies
Has anyone noticed no WWIII with Iran and the middle east.
Diplomacy instead of war. Go figure

What a great President
