(Commander in Chief) means taking charge and kicking ass. President Bush is doing just that
**********************

The title of "Commander in Chief" does not confer immunity from the requirements of law.

President Bush does not have legal authority to decide war, and Congress can't legally delegate it's responsibility to decide war.

" Congress can't legally delegate it's responsibility to decide war."

As long as you’re certain that the Constitution is "explicit on every issue", could you show me where that’s stated as well?

Please don't underestimate my respect for your arguments in this thread. Would that they held in this world. But it seems to me that Ron's argument is with himself. As a Congressman. Look at Congress. Look at the visage of each and every one of them, and in the aggregate, tell us all why we should stake our lives, our property, our sacred honor on the likes of them?

You are determined to stubbornly insist that only you have the intelligence and principles to determine what is constitutional.

It is one of the most annoying aspects of trying to discuss political reality with libertarians.

It doesn't matter that you are usually wrong. You are always wrong and your only purpose is to be argumentative and seek notice.

Please do not ping me to any more of your nonsense; go troll your pals at lp.
