Were you in favor of the Seal Team killing the pirates off the coast of Somalia or was that an unconstitutional act as well?

I am in favor of protecting US interests both people and property through any means necessary including lethal force. I am in favor of once again having the world recognize that if any touch one hair on a US citizen such action releases the wrath of all US might upon them.

I think that is okay per the Constitution.

Me too.

Do do I despite what the War Powers Act says. The primary purpose of the fedguv is to protect American citizens. The Constitution gives the CIC the power to do that, not Congress. So the CIC has to be able to make war on the bad guys when they attack American citizens which is why I had no problem with Obama or Reagan trying to kill Gadaffi.

Of course Obama is a marxist moron who claims that Gadaffi isn't the target but I didn't vote for the idiot. In spite of that I would not want to diminish the next Reagan the power to kill bad guys who harm Americans while Congress dithers.
