Re: 2012 US Presidential Elections
Also "In the courts, the United States First Circuit Court of Appeals in Doe vs. Bush said: "[T]he text of the October Resolution itself spells out justifications for a war and frames itself as an 'authorization' of such a war."[1] in effect saying a formal Congressional "Declara...

Re: 2012 US Presidential Elections
I don't think you can blame a president for using a system in a way that is allowed. The constiution does not lay out how things should work in times of war, so it became easy to circumvent. Hell the founders did not even want a standing army. "The Congress shall have the Power To … raise and ...

Re: 2012 US Presidential Elections
I wish your dreams were how it worked. And very little is implicit in the Constitution most is left up to interpretation because no one really knows what the hell most of the founding fathers meant. I am all for making it a lot harder to use military action, but the Constitution is no help. "T...

Re: 2012 US Presidential Elections
Where in the Constitution does it give Obama the authority to lead us to war based on an UN or NATO resolution? I don't think the Constitution says anything about it, other than giving the right to declare war. Not how it should be used, etc. I don't think we have been in a state of declared war si...

Re: 2012 US Presidential Elections
Two, parts of the constitution are as batshit crazy as the bible, i.e. the section saying we should count black people as 3/5ths of a person for census purposes. That clause was amended (what a concept!) and the fact that something misguided existed in the Constitution at some point in history shou...

Re: 2012 US Presidential Elections
And I think for someone with a background in numbers, your sampling size is for shit. Yeah, no kidding. But at some point, you have to use the evidence of your own fucking eyes, not what the media tells you to believe. Let's see if this rings a bell for you, hellboy76; think of all the people who w...

Re: 2012 US Presidential Elections
And on another note, For one, whoever keeps saying the main reason people voted for Obama because of the color of his skin is an asshole. Yeah, tell that to my 6 white friends who openly admitted they voted for Obama because of his race. I think you're positively delusional if you don't think his s...
