The Libyan war: Unconstitutional and illegitimate - War Room - Salon.com

"In his press conference last Friday, President Obama told the American people: "Yesterday, in response to a call for action by the Libyan people and the Arab League, the U.N. Security Council passed a strong resolution that demands an end to the violence against citizens." It is bad enough that the President thinks that a declaration of war by Congress is not necessary, as long as the war is blessed by Security Council members like Colombia and Gabon, as well as by "the Libyan people" and by the collection of kleptocrats and thugs that make up the Arab League. But when the Arab League withdraws its support as soon as the war begins -- well, that's just embarrassing." Salon, 21032011
