President George Bush, surrounded by leaders of the House and Senate, announces the Joint Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq, October 2, 2002.
It’s Obama’s illegal war against Libya.
Correct. All I want to see a joint resolution from Congress authorizing the use of force in Libya. How hard could it be to attain it, especially with a Democratic Senate and some Republicans in the House lukewarm to taking out Colonel Qadaffi?
(Well, it's what the liberals claimed about Bush)
Please remind everyone that Saddam was under a cease fire when we knocked doen his door.
He repeatedly violated the terms of the cease fire agreement, that alone justified what Bush did.
No Blood For Oil!!!! I wonder how well that will go down with the Lefties?
I cannot wait to see the next approval poll on this idiot.
And he did it for what, twelve or so years? And how many resolutions by the UN. And still Bush was vilified. Clinton didn’t have the guts even when the Democrat elite sent a letter telling him what SH was all about.
The War Powers Act gives him the authority to do what he is doing.

OBAMA: ‘Today we are part of a broad coalition. We are answering the calls of a threatened people. And we are acting in the interests of the United States and the world’...
MARCH 19, 2003
BUSH: ‘American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, to free its people and to defend the world from grave danger...
This is the Republican's chance to kill obamacare. Using the war powers act, attach such obamacare death measure to Congressional authorization.
Only to the extent he notifies Congress within 48 hours of commencing hostilities and ceases hostilities within 60 days. Either hussein thinks he can get in and out within 60 days and doesn't need to hazard a vote, or he'll need to get Congressional authorization under the War Powers Act.
Once he goes to Congress for approval, that is the chance to strike down obamacare just like the Dems forced Bush Sr to go back on his no new taxes pledge in return for authorizing Desert Storm.
He’s in Brazil working on the oil effort.
For soros
For soros
The War Powers Act doesn’t imagine a situation where you first go to the UN to get authorization while avoiding Congress.
Where is Code Pink? where is Cindy Sheehan? hmmmmmmmm bet Rev Wright is spitting nails
Obama says there will be NO boots on the ground...hold him to his words...ooooops he also said he would close Gitmo, bring the troops home from Iraq alot sooner and so on and so on...he has such a “transparent” administration
