What am I? Chopped liver?


And Fox seems fine with that.

No worries about constitutionality?

Or will they start yelling about it as soon as something happens, as they did in the case of Libya?

The story says David Cameron has to get a parliamentary OK and the US wants to do this through NATO.

Not one word about anyone seeking a congressional resolution, much less a flat out declaration of war.

And the UN?

No idea.

I have checked several major liberal sites this morning.

Not one word about all this.

What the hell?

Common dreams, more radical than liberal, is the only site yelling about war without congressional authority being unconstitutional.

KOS has got excerpts from and links to the broadly supportive liberal establishment press.

We have to save the world from moral obscenity, you know.

I am not aware the Republicans, or the conservatives, are trying to stop this.

Update 08282013 2039 hrs EDT.

Over a hundred Republican legislators and just under 20 Democrats have written to the president insisting he cannot act without a congressional mandate. 

Why not all of them? 

Of course, from the sound of things he isn't planning on war.

Though he may find he lacks the spine to back away, in the event. 

End update.
