Obama’s Decision Stirs Doubts About America’s Resolve.
Phew!!!
Finally!!!
May it continue.
If Obama hadn’t already repeatedly proven himself to be an indecisive compromiser I would be tempted to suspect him of being a closet Libertarian.
I mean…a U.S. President actually obeying the Constitution’s War Powers clauses!!!???
Unheard of!!!
Under the United States Constitution, war powers are divided. Congress has the power to declare war, raise and support the armed forces, control the war funding (Article I, Section 8), and has “Power … to make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution … all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof”, while the President is commander-in-chief of the military, “when called into the actual Service of the United States” (Article II, Section 2). It is generally agreed that the commander-in-chief role gives the President power to repel attacks against the United States[6][7] and makes the President responsible for leading the armed forces. In addition and as with all acts of the Congress, the President has the right to sign or veto congressional acts, such as a declaration of war.
World Cop my ass!!!
May it continue.
