We're not the Iraqi Air Force.He can do anything he wants for 60 days. He doesn't have to ask for funding. He had no problem going to war against Libya and you guys never complained.Military incursions require funding, Mr. Whistle.When did Boehner become Commander In Chief?Where's the outrage over Boehner still being on vacation and not calling the House back in session to authorize funding to stop ISIS?
Edit: Oops - you wingnuts shouldn't read this or you will go soft before the jerk is done.
Another thought, nothing the House does makes it through the Senate, so why do anything. It would be shelved like everything else they've done.
he War Powers Resolution requires the President to notify Congress within 48 hours of committing armed forces to military action and forbids armed forces from remaining for more than 60 days, with a further 30 day withdrawal period, without an authorization of the use of military force or a declaration of war. The resolution was passed by two-thirds of Congress, overriding a presidential veto. It has been alleged that the War Powers Resolution has been violated in the past, for example, by President Clinton in 1999, during the bombing campaign in Kosovo. All incidents have had congressional disapproval, but none has resulted in any successful legal actions being taken against the president for alleged violations.War Powers Resolution - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Your shit is so weak. Obama does anything he wants and goes around congress constantly, but now his hands are tied?
Epic Fail
Why aren't Right-Wingers bitching about the Saudis, Turks, Egyptians, Kuwaitis, and Jordanians not launching air strikes against ISIS?
Isn't it their neighborhood?
Aren't their countries in an imminent threat from ISIS?
Don't they have very modern Air Forces, bought from Uncle Sam?
So, until they get off their asses, why should we add to our debt?
How is that rant at all relevant to the fact that our President shouldn't be out laughing it up moments after consoling an American family over the loss of one of their own? Or at least he shouldn't be caught on camera doing so.
It's rather disgusting that we as Americans can't put politics aside for one fucking moment and all say " Obama, you should have shown more respect than that"
He doesn't care, he is the Celebrity President
Obama is a shit stain, as are most politicians, I've given up on them. But , if we as Americans don't ALL start standing up and demanding MORE from our politicians, it is completely irrelevant which party gets elected to which office because we will just keep getting shit stains as leaders.
I mean I've seen politicians get caught watching porn when they are supposed to be you know running our country and even THAT gets turned into a political football by the American idiot, rather than ALL of us saying "Hey I don't care which party that guy is in, that is disgraceful, get rid of him now"
I knew Obama was a JOKE when he appeared on the Tonight Show after only being in office for 30 days
