Obama to Congress: I Don't Need Your Authorization for War, But Give It to Me Anyway

http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/terence-p-jeffrey/obama-congress-i-dont-need-your-authorization-war-give-it-me-anyway



It doesn't surprise me in the slightest that President Obama has that attitude.  The last few presidents have had that attitude.  Who cares about the Constitution?  If we want something done, we'll bypass the Constitution.  That's the same mentality Obama's predecessor George W. Bush had and that's the same mentality that Obama has.  He said today in a speech in the White House Rose Garden that he's asking Congress to give him authorization to strike in Syria.  He said he doesn't need their approval, but give it to him anyway. 

The Constitution states in Article 1 Section 8 that the declaration of war wrests with Congress.  It's the Commander-in-Chief's job to oversee the war.  James Madison did state in his notes, in which he proposed that Congress have the power to decide when the nation should initiate the use of military force.  If Congress is the body that's supposed to declare war, then it brings accountability into the equation and it's a check on the president when it comes to his powers during time of war.

President Barack Obama

Facing skepticism in Congress and abroad, President Obama and his top cabinet advisors set out to make the case for intervening in Syria.  It released an "intelligence report" showing "high confidence" that the Assad regime was responsible for carrying out the strike and respondiung in the best interest of the U.S.  Obama also said the U.S. could act alone in punishing Syria for a chemical weapons attack last week.  He said that the U.S., being the leader of the free world, has an obligation to hold rogue regimes accountable for breaching the rules of war.  To read the full story, click on the above link from FoxNews.com.

British Lawmakers Reject Military Action in Syria, a Setback to the Obama Administration

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/08/29/syria-strike-push-hits-hurdles/

British lawmakers say voted against military intervention in Syria, in a major setback for both the British Prime Minister David Cameron and the Obama administration, in their push to punish the Assad regime for an alleged chemical weapons attacks.  The U.K. vote was a preliminary measure but not technically binding.  Prime Minister Cameron will look for other ways to round up support.  Polls in the United States have shown a similar distaste for military action in Syria.  President Obama however, is trying to persuade Congress on the need to respond.  House Speaker John Boehner stated that President Obama needs to present a clear 'unambiguous' reason on how a military strike in Syria would serve U.S. interests.  To read the full story, click on the above link from FoxNews.com.

$1.5B for 'Youth Jobs' Fund'? Critics Pan Pork in Senate Immigration Bill

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/08/26/15b-for-youth-jobs-fund-critics-pan-pork-in-senate-immigration-bill/

 Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT)

Anytime there's a major bill that passes the Senate such as the immigration back in June, you know there's all kinds of pork that's going to be loaded in there.  Lawmakers say that it's packed with pork barrel projects ranging in $1.5 billion for 'youth jobs fund' to millions for immigrants for immigrant support groups.  Senators and Congressmen always sign on to get their share of the pork in a bill which is of a total different nature.  It's ridiculous.  Since our politicians have numerous cronies they use bills such as this to pay back favors to those that helped them to get re-elected.  It's ridiculous.  The pork barreling and the whole immigraiton bill is ridiculous.  We have a set of immigration laws that our elected elite refuse to follow.  They are nothing but traitors to the Constitution when they won't protect this country's borders nor regulate the number of immigrants that come to our country.

Ted Cruz Doubles Down to Threat to Defund Obamacare, Proposes Alternatives

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/aug/25/sen-ted-cruz-doubles-down-defunding-obamacare-thre/

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX)

Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has doubled down on his long shot bid to defund Obamacare, even though Senate Democrats are highly unlikely to approve a short-term spending bill this September that impugns President Obama's signature domestic achievement, according to the Washington Times. 

The House of Representatives is the body that's responsible for approving spending bills.  The House is the body responsible for defunding Obamacare.  I don't see any Republican in the House that has the political will to defund it.  House Speaker John Boehner and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor surely aren't going to influence the defunding of it.  I don't see any of the so-called conservatives in the House such as Michelle Bachman take the bull by the horns to get it accomplished.  It's all talk.  When it's all said and done, Obamacare will still be funded by the federal government.  The federal government isn't going to stop the defunding of Obamacare.
