Ann Coulter is a Constitutional lawyer and a brilliant woman. I’ll stick with her on this. I don’t want a strike for those al Qaida rebels any more than you do; however, I recognize America elected an idiot (among other things) for President and we have to live with the consequences.

fine, I’ll stick with the Constitution.
Ann Coulter is a hack and a loose canon. I’m also not in the least impressed with her “intellect” I’ve known many a constitutional lawyer and was one myself as a Prosecutor arguing before SCOTUS, several Fed Courts and the VA Sup Ct.
The President lacks the Constitutional authority. However, we always let him do it so it really doesn’t matter.
Before you go “sticking with Ann Coulter,” you might want to take time to read this:

Basically, to the extent that Presidents have “gotten away with violating the Constitution” as regards the War Powers, she’s sort of right. But as I read the analysis, it’s up to Congress to commit the use of our troops in an OFFENSIVE action, and if the Congress wants to assert itself, it will win. Now, probably won’t happen because of that limp dick, Boner!
A true constitutional scholar would not agree with Coulter.
