2 Top Lawyers Lost to Obama in Libya War Policy Debate

I really hope the SCOTUS slaps him down on this. Forget the War Powers Act, this is purely a Constitutional issue. Congress, and only Congress can authorize engaging in war.

[dandiegirl]

Arrogance beyond belief.

[livius]

Wow. This is much more intentional than I realized. Personally, I think the situation has little to do with Libya, but is really intended to show that Obama don’t need no stinkin’ law or Constitution.

[raybbr]

They didn't "lose" to Obama - the usurper is simply ignoring them.

Impeach him now!

[willibeaux]

I hope this bites him in the backside.

[BipolarBob]

this is purely a Constitutional issue

Marxist dictators don't respect the Constitution.

[himno hero]

Libya is just a stinking sideshow. Have you been watching Iran’s moves while America is pre-occupied focusing on Obies side show?

Our community organizer has much more on his personal agenda than he lets on.

AND it ain’t good for America.

[GlockThe Vote]

Bump.

[Beaten Valve]

"Lawyers? We don't need no stinkin' lawyers..."

[grumpa]

SOMEBODY PLEASE PUT THE CONSTITUTION ON HIS TELEPROMPTER.

[Blood of Tyrants]

How could it be “hostilities” when it isn’t a war, it’s a “kinetic military action”. It’s not bombs they are dropping, they are “regime change encouragement devices”.

[Navy Patriot]

SOMEBODY PLEASE PUT THE CONSTITUTION ON HIS TELEPROMPTER.

It would cause him to go blind.

[Psalm 144]

It is to entrench a radical jihadist faction in yet another oil producing nation.

[JimSEA]

So the Pentagon and DOJ think O has crossed the line toward dictatorship perhaps? The evil Bush didn’t do this but Hope and Change did? I guess this is an argument for asking for the content of hope and change? Of course this is the most transparent administration in history so why worry?

[ilgipper]

assuming this is accurate, this is simply an exercise in flexing his muscle as a dictator-in-chief. Remarkable. I bet he has the same attitude toward election laws.

[Lurker]

I really hope the SCOTUS slaps him down on this.

HAHAHAHAHA....HOHOHOHOHO....HAHAHAHA....stop it....HAHAHAH...HOHOHO...your killing me.

Do you honestly believe that those 9 black robed jackwagons are going to intervene?

[RightGeek]

"After several meetings and phone calls, the rival legal analyses were submitted to Mr. Obama, who is a constitutional lawyer, and he made the decision."

Snicker - my dog is a better Constitutional lawyer than BO

[bboop]

“He rejected ... he decided.” Like a f’ing dictator.
