BBC NEWS | Americas | Panel demands US war power reform
Looks like we need a constitutional amendment on qualifications to be in Congress.
Who is at fault for not having an idiot proof "blank check?"
"James Baker and Warren Christopher want to introduce a new law which would force US presidents to consult Congress before launching military action."
I know they are not that stupid, and it is the dumb Journalist, but I have to ask:
If Iran is hit by Israel, would our president have to ask to keep the sea lanes open with that "maintained" MILITARY Navy? You all (every message board member) have 19 minutes to answer.
Iraq is not a failure of the War Powers Act, or the public law that let Clinton bomb Iraq back to the stone age in Operation Desert Fox, it is a failure of treasonous Democrats to have a yellow stained cowardly post-it-note on the law have the power of law.
