Our Cowardly Congress

Speaking today on ABC’s This Week, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R – KY) dismissed the efforts of House Speaker Paul Ryan (R – WI) to explore a possible Authorization of the Use of Military Force (AUMF) for the ongoing ISIS war, saying he didn’t see it as feasible.

McConnell went on to say he “couldn’t imagine” passing any AUMF in the Senate that President Obama would sign, saying any such authorization would “tie the hands of the next president” on the war, saying the next president will have to clean up the mess.

"Tie the hands of the next President"? That is the lamest excuse I've yet heard.

Dear Senator McConnell - Why don't you and your fellow members of Congress do your jobs and authorize (or not) what THIS President is doing?

Or do you all find it sufficient to merely sit on your hands while he bombs and kills whomever he wants WITHOUT your express authorization?

This appears to be additional proof that the US Constitution was suspended on 9/11.
