Major Doofus reports for duty again.
The ketchup gigolo is Obama’s military advisor, because, he know how to get out of a war zone.
Point well taken. I would have preferred a declaration of war also, but that didn’t happen. But the way I read it, Congress has a wide latitude in the kinds of “war” legislation it can pass. The constitution says they can:
...define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, and offenses against the law of nations;
Define and punish...offenses against the law of nations.
Your answer of course is:
H.R.J. Res. 77 - Joint Resolution to authorize the use of United States Armed Forces pursuant to United Nations Security Council Resolution 678
Of course he did. John McCain realizes that my former commanding officer ain't been right since that mine went off under our Swift boat during our Christmas raid up the Mekong into Cambodia.
Lt. Kerry saved my life, or so he believed, by diving into the murky stream and searching for me underwater for 26 minutes, not realizing that I had gone ashore after capturing several NAZI spies and VietCong terrorists. Lack of oxygen to his brain left his memory of the events unclear, although seared. What was clear enough is that he deserved the Croix de Guerre avec Palm, the Pour le Merite Ritterkreuz mit Diamenten, The Victoria Cross, and the Congressional Medal of Honor, for which he nominated himself after the events, in his altogether too modest (IMHO) after-action report, which made James Bond and Sergeant York look pale in comparison.
Of course this reasonable request was nixed by some REMF Chairwarmer back at HQ, and this brave man of Massachusetts had to be content with a mere Silver Star with original doohickeys of his own design, and 2 or 3 purple hearts. His expense report claiming new khakis was also denied.
Juan McCain knows a hero when he sees one ...especially a wet one.
