Sen. Boehner eviscerates Pelosi and Reid
In my opinion, House debates Friday regarding Pres. Obama and the War Powers Act separated speakers from the mediocre to the average to the brilliant! Palace intrigue at its best. The whole process was literally breathtaking and I found myself applauding salient points on both sides of the debates.
The way I saw the debates was through lens revealing the logical and progressive stages of the Boehner resolution vs. the not well thought out “got’cha” aspirations of the Rep. Dennis Kucinich resolution.
Mr. Kucinich had to have spoken with both Pelosi and Reid regarding his resolution who did not alert him to its one fatal flaw of requesting total withdrawal from the Libya conflict within fourteen days of its passage. I have never thought of Pelosi and Reid as being the sharpest tool in the shed, hence the resolution was gleefully placed on the House floor akin to a propped up scarecrow.
With the House and possible Senate passage of the Boehner resolution, Pres. Obama will have to provide information surely to be used against him when he is taken to the Hague with accusations of genocide and crimes to humanity due to the fact he hired Sec. Clinton and, unfortunately, has to take the blunt of the war she started and fostered in Libya with a note pinned on his butt, “From Hilary and Bill, with love.” (She will testify against him at the Hague!) Sad.

At Long Last, House Debates and Votes on Libya War Powers
By Robert Naiman
Members of the House should hold the House leadership accountable to this 14-day deadline. As the situation stands today, passage of the Boehner resolution has done nothing about the fact that the Administration has involved the U.S. in a war of choice that was not authorized by Congress and is therefore illegal and unconstitutional. But if the Boehner resolution effectively pressures the Administration to seek Congressional authorization, to seek a diplomatic resolution, or to end U.S. participation; or if the Boehner resolution serves as a prelude to action in two weeks by the House to end U.S. participation in the war, it will have been a positive step.
