A confident and undaunted President Barack Obama said on Saturday he will continue to make executive orders regardless of House Speaker John Boehner's threat to sue, The Washington Times reported.

Boehner announced last Wednesday he is considering bringing a lawsuit against Obama for allegedly abusing his powers as executive.

Though Obama did not specifically mention the lawsuit, the president in his weekly address said the White House will press on in the face of Republicans who continue to block measures spearheaded by the president.

"Republicans in Congress keep blocking or voting down almost every serious idea. This year alone they've said not to raising the minimum wage, no to fair pay, no to student loan reform, not to extending unemployment insurance," Obama said according to The Washington Times.

As a result of the "obstruction," the entire system turns against the nation's leaders as well as the middle class, the president said.

"And as long as they insist on doing it, I'll keep taking actions on my own- like the actions I've already taken to attract new jobs, lift workers' wages and help students pay off their loans," Obama said. "I'll do my job."

According to Boehner, Obama has overstepped the scope of power given to the executive by the Constitution.

"The Constitution makes it clear that a president's job is to faithfully execute the laws," the Ohio Republican said, ABC News reported. "In my view, the president has not faithfully executed the laws."

Boehner has yet to say which executive orders he is challenging.

Obama's Saturday comments came two days after he visited a mother in Minnesota who is experiencing financial hardship, part of his attempt to connect again with ordinary Americans.
