The War Powers Act isn’t worth a hill of beans if the courts don’t bother with it. The case of Campbell v. Clinton was dismissed for lack of standing even after congress voted down action in Yugoslovia. SCOTUS declined to hear it.

Of course it's not worth a hill of beans but it is law and either Obama needs to go to congress or congress needs to cut off funds immediately.

Nobody seems to have standing in this nation any longer. Pay your taxes and shut up is the governments motto now.
