Since when did you start using WC logic, chump?
Conceded in the first 4 paragraphs of the resolution:
http://www.policyalmanac.org/world/a...solution.shtmlQuote:
(c) The constitutional powers of the President as Commander-in-Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, are exercised only pursuant to (1) a declaration of war, (2) specific statutory authorization, or (3) a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.
Quote:
CONSULTATION
SEC. 3. The President in every possible instance shall consult with Congress before introducing United States Armed Forces into hostilities or into situation where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, and after every such introduction shall consult regularly with the Congress until United States Armed Forces are no longer engaged in hostilities or have been removed from such situations.
Reporting after the fact is only allowed where...
Quote:
REPORTING
SEC. 4. (a) In the absence of a declaration of war, in any case in which United States Armed Forces are introduced--
(1) into hostilities or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances;
(2) into the territory, airspace or waters of a foreign nation, while equipped for combat, except for deployments which relate solely to supply, replacement, repair, or training of such forces; or
(3) in numbers which substantially enlarge United States Armed Forces equipped for combat already located in a foreign nation; the president shall submit within 48 hours to the Speaker of the House
Notice there are no provisions that allow unilateral military action initiated by the executive branch in situations other than attack or imminent involvement of our forces.
This would rule out military action for HUMANITARIAN efforts.
Reading skills failing you much, chump?
now fix your hair.
Parker, that is not the constitution, and congress cannot pass laws that deny the president his powers.
Except you already said that the provision that says the exec may declare war is t in the Constitution. So if Congress passed a law stating that, how would it go against the Constitution?Quote:

This is general schooling that goes back to my first point..I didnt address this case specifically...nice try on saving face though.Quote:

You should quit trying to save face if it means confusing others at this point, Chump. Let the truth prevail, even if it stings a lil.
You thought you had a point, but you didn't even know that there was prior reporting to Congress before the Libya action. You have been kicked in the balls by your own ignorance.Quote:

You had them right the first time, even though you failed to actually understand them.

I figured you would have to run away at some point. You embarrassed yourself and you don't even know how you did it. :toast
I'm thinking that the American people can figure out why on their own; I mean with the ruthlessly efficient machine that is Congress, they probably would have taken another couple of weeks to decide on the matter.Quote:
