From what I have learned about the War Powers Act,,,
Congress can vote,within 7 days,to over-ride the POTUS if
they do not agree,,,
Big >IF< the POTUS does pull the trigger,,,
Congress will not have time to vote to stop it,,,
It will be over in a day or two at the most,,,Game Over,,,
If he does it before the election it will surely affect the
outcome,,,and,,,
Oil prices,,,TOOO high already,,,
I guess I don't look at the politics as much as the
Well Aimed Back Shot...;0)
I hear ya, but you’re working with the presumption that Bush would be on point. He won’t be, it will be Isarael. We already have assets in theater, approved by congress mind you, to deal with immediate threats that may....let’s say...pop up.
I think it’ll be a little later than sooner, but things being pushed out too far is a bit risky (politically). I don’t think Bush gambles lol. A more stable ‘area’ would immediately send oil prices down...with a little Saudi help as well, I would think. It’s interesting for sure, because there’s strong calculated risks regarding timing...both ways.
And back to congress...the way I figure it’ll go down, congress won’t even need to call a meeting... All just guesses here.
