"I'm not even arguing I'm saying let it be judged by the courts.
Are you against that?"


I'm against that. War was declared on the United States by world wide terrorists. Do you honestly believe a federal judge with a gavel, can provide better protection for the United States, than the Commander in Chief with all his resources, including Constitutional powers, not given the same court. The courts were never given the powers to prosecute a war, or to provide protection for it’s citizens. Congress and the president have those powers, and not some liberal mealy mouse person in a black robe playing president. If you read Taylor's ruling, she spent more time criticizing the president then who was supposedly injured, of by the way, none in the lawsuit could claim being injured. The lawsuit would have been better brought against the New York Times for leaking the information that brought this dumb baseless ruling, then against our government...give me a break.

BTW, the U.S. was hit about five times by terrorists under the Clinton administration, and the most he did was mistakenly bomb an Aspirin factory, and some empty tents in the desert. Your argument is overwhelmingly senseless.

All I'm stating is that are no issues if GEB actions are judged constitutional.

It would not be in anyones best interest to leave it up to the POTUS to interpret the Constitution as he (or she) may see fit.
