Wrong. If we aren’t attacked, and the basis of the intent to enter into military hostilities against another Nation is a UN resolution as has happened here, then it’s totally up to Congress to debate, and authorize that action, NOT the President.

If Libya had attacked the United States, or United States interests then the President can order immediate action to protect us, and/or our interests, and notify Congress the details within a specified period of time.

But, if a British Born Subject such as Obama is president, and the Prime Minister calls him and demands he attacks, he should attack. We can not strip our president of his foreign obligations.

What if Libya had imminent plans to Nuke Kenya?

Our Presidents immediate family is there. The president could not allow that to happen.

It seems we out grew our Constitution when we elect the Islamic Messiah.
