Three cheers for representative Dennis Kucinich (D, OH). He's one of the few Congressmen that has the courage to stand up to the President of the United States. Kucinich is filing a lawsuit that charges Obama with making an ILLEGAL end-run around Congress by declaring HIS own "military action" (war) in Libya!
Kucinich says "with regard to the war in Libya, we believe that the law was violated. We have asked the courts to move to protect the American people from the results of these illegal policies."
Details
This lawsuit challenges the Obama administration's "circumvention of Congress and its use of international organizations such as the United Nations and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to authorize the use of military force abroad." It prohibits the White House (Obama) from conducting a war without congressional approval.
Kucinich and Congressman Walter Jones (R, NC) co-sponsored this lawsuit along with the following Congressmen:
- John Conyers (D, MI)
- Michael Capuano (D, MA)
- Howard Coble (R, NC)
- John Duncan (R, TN)
- Roscoe Bartlett (R, MD)
- Ron Paul (R, TX)
- Tim Johnson (R, IL)
- Dan Burton (R, IN)
Bring Obama Down a Notch
It's about time someone in Congress stood up for the law of the land. We need to compliment these individuals for standing up for YOUR LIBERTIES! If any of these Congressmen are in your district, be sure and let them know that you appreciate their efforts to stop Obama from violating the US Constitution! He needs to be put in his place. He ALSO needs to read the Constitution to see what HIS job description is and what his limits are so he can abide by them!
