Kucinich did better: Out in 15 days, period.

He’s not a stopped clock, more like an unflipped calendar repeating every 28 years.

It’s nothing more than the second step in a long journey toward impeachment, which I am not convinced he’s committed to completing.

So he’s in violation of the War Powers Act. So what are they gonna do about it? Nothing in the letter says anything about consequences for violating it.

He practically gave Obama his “out” by acknowledging that he may consider the Act to be unconstitutional. He should have pointed out the the constitutionality of the Act is not for him to decide. That’s for the courts.

I’d have much more hope if he had at least hinted at impeachment. As it is, there’s nothing to back it up.

BTW, the real deadline was to get congressional approval by the 60th day, and failing that, to be completely withdrawn by the 90th day. The way Boehner’s letter reads, he thinks Obama will be in compliance with the law if by Friday he just tells Congress his reasons, once again, for bombing the hell out of Libya.

Wait 5 more days and call for his impeachment.

The secrets he is passing to Russia is Treason
He broke his oath to preserve the Constitution, the second charge.
Doma Charge number 3.

Boehner was way too nice. Barry will ball that letter up and shoot a hoop with it.

Before mocking Boehner, perhaps people should consider that the House just passed a bill calling for all funds to be cut off for any military operation that is not in compliance with the War Powers Act.

The letter is simply the other shoe dropping to deny funds.

I'm always amazed that so many conservatives are willing to participate in circular firing squads to purge the ranks of everyone who isn't sufficiently pure.

Welcome to FR, newbie.

Obama has been screwing up America,
with Boehner’s tacit help and approval
(even though the Impostor is not even qualified)
since BEFORE YOUR arrival.
