I really hope the SCOTUS slaps him down on this. Forget the War Powers Act, this is purely a Constitutional issue. Congress, and only Congress can authorize engaging in war.

Wow. This is much more intentional than I realized. Personally, I think the situation has little to do with Libya, but is really intended to show that Obama don’t need no stinkin’ law or Constitution.

They didn't "lose" to Obama - the usurper is simply ignoring them.

Impeach him now!

Marxist dictators don't respect the Constitution.

How could it be “hostilities” when it isn’t a war, it’s a “kinetic military action”. It’s not bombs they are dropping, they are “regime change encouragement devices”.

So the Pentagon and DOJ think O has crossed the line toward dictatorship perhaps? The evil Bush didn’t do this but Hope and Change did? I guess this is an argument for asking for the content of hope and change? Of course this is the most transparent administration in history so why worry?

assuming this is accurate, this is simply an exercise in flexing his muscle as a dictator-in-chief. Remarkable. I bet he has the same attitude toward election laws.

There’s solid reasons that Obama has been disbarred.

NYT is laying groundwork for impeachment?

It sure seems as though the Dems are looking to through Obama under the bus for the last couple years - blaming a runaway administration for their collective failings.

Obama is playing with folks that are much much more politically astute than he could ever imagine.

Misleading title, for sure (not surprising in the Slimes though...).

I’ve had a hard time figuring out how and why Obama made the decision to bomb Libya (I’ve been offline, and the local news wasn’t saying anything...). I’m assuming that there is a HUGE backstory here that has nothing to do with any perceived “revolutionary” upheaval.
