Turley is not a supporter of the ACA he's one Boehner's legal advisor on the issue, not an indepedent party. And has opposed the law since the individual mandate challenge (where he also said that that had merit and would win in the courts)
Now on issues like vs the church, being anti-gitmo he does side with liberals but if you're talking politics he's more of a libertarian than anything else.
With that said, the same day as his testomy there were a bunch others.. 2 by Democrats said it was a waste of time, 2 by Republicans said it had merits (one bing the video you posted) however the vast majority of legal journals say the suit will be laughed out of court because Boehner lacks standing to even bring the case to court and that its more a political stunt to protect to help him hold on to his speakership because Obama would literally be out of office before a case like this is ever resolved.
