STUPID CONGRESS        

HOUSE VOTE REFUSES OBAMA AUTHORITY TO BOMB LIBYA - BUT KEEPS ON FUNDING HIS WAR CRIMES!

WASHINGTON – The House has voted down a measure giving President Barack Obama the authority to continue the U.S. military action against Libya. The House refused to vote President Barack Obama the authority for U.S. military operations against Libya but stopped short of cutting off funds for the mission, a mixed message reminiscent of congressional unease on Vietnam and more recent wars.The vote was 295-123 on Friday. The congressional action has no immediate effect on American involvement but represents a repudiation of the commander in chief. House Republican leaders pushed for the vote, with rank-and-file members saying the president broke the law by failing to seek congressional approval for the 3-month-old war. Some Democrats accused the GOP of playing politics with national security. House Republicans and Democrats are furious with Obama for failing to seek congressional authorization for the 3-month-old war against Gadhafi, as required under the War Powers Resolution. The 1973 law, often ignored by Republican and Democratic presidents, says the commander in chief must seek congressional consent for military actions within 60 days. That deadline has long passed. Earlier this month, the House voted 268-145 to rebuke Obama for failing to provide a "compelling rationale" for the Libyan mission and for launching U.S. military forces without congressional approval. AND HE KEEPS ON BOMBING! AND BOMBING! AND BOMBING!
