Congress could pass a few laws that nullify his order(s). I think that's what they'll do in January. In the interim, they will file suit and take it to court, which would also likely result in nullification. In both scenarios, congress would reassert their rightful lawmaking power, and reign in the presidential overreach.

At the same time, they should complicate every move the president makes that isn't directly related to the security and necessity of the US. His nominations, requests for funding, confirmations. In addition, the congressional republicans should show the president just how repugnant a branch of the government can be when it disregards the protocols and limitations of the body. So Boehner should schedule meetings with foreign government heads of countries such as Russia, North Korea, China, etc, and begin talks of their own, even negotiations. Leaving the president out entirely, save for notifying the oval office of each trip in advance, and issuing a report after. This would belittle and dismiss obama, as he has done to congress. That sheethead would be met with embarrassment when he contacted heads of state for trade and diplomatic missions.
