I take issue with any president deciding to flex-richard over human rights abuses by making random military strikes. The proper way to handle this kind of thing should be to place wide-ranging sanctions on anyone who sponsored the gas attack. That and perhaps a military strike if it's approved by Congress. That being said, this isn't a particularly new approach. Obama bombed the hell out of Libya in response to the Libyan Civil War after the Arab Spring. Didn't require congressional approval either. Our constitution doesn't actually have a built-in protection against this sort of richard-flexing. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/why-obamas-libya-strikes-dont-require-congressional-approval/2011/03/24/AB9nxMQB_story.html?utm_term=.591f7344505e Funny enough though, the whole Republican talking point back during that time was how we ought to 'impeach Obama' for making these strikes without congressional approval, yet here we have Annoying Orange doing the exact same thing and none of them give a stuff. --- Quote ---U.S. airstrikes against Libya have reignited the perennial debate over whether the president can launch military operations without first securing congressional approval. The answer is found in the Constitution’s text and history, and it must be the same regardless of the president’s political party. Those Republicans accusing President Obama of exceeding his legitimate authority should consider whether they would make the same claims if a Republican were president, as many Democrats previously have done. --- End quote --- |
