OR

cut all funding for anything involving the Libyan / UN supporting operation.

Then

cut all funding for the White House (all salaries except the household staff).

Let’s start the budget cutting process.

Next stop the Executive Branch on the ‘Pruning Express’.

Congress instead of allowing him to do away with advise and consent ... can start the cutting the chaff to the bone. Then less to advise & consent on.

Agreed - but ain't got the votes.

So, a pragmatic approach executed in parallel (i.e., not sequentially):

(A) Put so much money/energy into the 2012 House and Senate races such that more "young Turks" replace all known RINOs and lame dim-0-crats - and the Congress becomes veto-proof. Now withhold funding and quickly start cutting budgets.

(B) Oversight becomes strictly adversarial - the Fed, the DoJ, ...

(C) War Powers Act is repealed ...

(D) Troops are brought home (e.g., Balkans, ...) and honored.

(E) Foreign Aid is cut ...

(F) Consitutional amendment for Ferderal Term Limits, including the Supreme Court. ...
