Calling the lawsuit alleging he exceeded his powers in executing the Affordable Care Act a "political stunt," Obama said Republicans only have a few years left until they "can be mad at the next president." Democrats have tried to link the lawsuit to talk of impeaching the president, even though Speaker Boehner says he has no plans to impeach Obama.

Saturn's moon Enceladus has taken the lead: 101 active geysers shooting water from cracks in its southern hemisphere have been discovered. That is important since water coming from deep inside the moon means there may be a reservoir of permanent liquid water there were life could thrive. The discovery came from images from NASA's Cassini space probe and was announced in two papers in the Astronomical Journal.
