Who in Congress has the cajones to stand up to him?

"To put the hypocrisy of Republicans into context when it comes to Libya"

"Whether or not you support U.S. involvement in Libya, it's pretty tough to say that Congress -- and its Article I powers -- should just be ignored."


So you point out the difference between the Libyan conflict and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan yet you call the Republicans hypocrites. Because they are opposing this on the grounds of the war powers act and the fact that Obama never went to Congress to get authorization for this. Exactly how are they being hypocrites again? Mr. Swerdlick your stupidity knows no bounds.

I admit I only scanned this story, but how is he equating the “invasion of Iraq” with what is going on in Libya? Bush received congressional approval for both Iraq and Afghanistan.

Is this a COngressional flip-flop? Or is it a 'turf battle'?

Congress has the power to declare war. The President had his SOS all over Europe putting together a coalition but didn't consult Congress?

If they don't protect their turf, they'll lose it, and DuhWon is already running roughshod over Congress with his 'ruling' by edict.

If they don't stand on their hind legs and say "NO!", they're going to go the way of the Reichstag.
