Why isn’t the house coming into emergency session to discuss?

Because according to Article II only the president can call the Congress into special session. And I'd be surprised if Obama was willing to do that.

I have been thinking the same (as have many other Freepers). My thought (and hope, and prayer) is they are allowing Obama to stick just one toe over "that" line and whallop him with impeachment. Last I read, 80%+ of this country does NOT want to mess around in Syria. Support for stringing zero up by his balls shouldn't be hard to come by and when the media tries to cover their boy wonder, start calling them out and ridiculing them for the "war mongers" that they are.

Pie in the sky to be sure, more than likely it's just our current congress being impotent as usual. We're in a real mess in this country.

Boehner could bring the House back, but that would require at least a Slinky's stiffness of spine and testicles the size of lentils, neither of which are available.

Because Bonehead is a coward. Where is Waldo Boehner?
Where is Eric Cantor? Where is Mitch McConnell? These so-called
leaders are AWOL.
The Brits took it seriously enough to have a vote. Where is our congress?
Why hasn’t Waldo Boehener had a press conference?

Because Bonehead is all for going to war on Al Qaeda’s side.
