Does he ?

WASHINGTON (AP) - House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that President Bush lacks the authority to invade Iran without specific approval from Congress, a fresh challenge to the commander in chief on the eve of a symbolic vote critical of his troop buildup in Iraq.

Pelosi, D-Calif., noted that Bush consistently said he supports a diplomatic resolution to differences with Iran "and I take him at his word."

At the same time, she said, "I do believe that Congress should assert itself, though, and make it very clear that there is no previous authority for the president, any president, to go into Iran."

Typical female trying to be the boss.

Typical double talk.

Once again, Libs are like that bitchy, manipulative exgirlfriend that you stop taking calls from.

Your ignorance is excused because you`re just a socialist Canuck who probably thinks Jack Layton is the next Lenin.

Public Law 93-148 Sect.II c) The constitutional powers of the President as Commander-in-Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances...(3) a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

Has Iran attacked the USA`s Armed Forces ? Yes

Has Iran attacked the USA`s possessions ? Yes

Bill Clinton attacked Yugoslavia without any Resolution from Congress ! Were you as outraged when he arbitrarily attacked another country that did nothing to the USA ?

The President has ever legal right to attack the ones attacking the US Armed Forces. Pelosi has the right to deny the funds and that is all she can do, Constitutionaly. If she attempts to abridge the powers of the Commander in Chief she`ll get her bony ass kicked.

What do I care ?

US are not going to invade Persia. Forget it.
Like it or not, Iran is going to be a nuclear power. Sooner or later Washington will have to discuss with the mollahs.
If the US of A had followed international law in the irakian issue, Iran wouldn't be in that state of power, right now, blowing the hot and the cold.
Neocons have failed both their country and their citizens with that stupid Irak war ; to the cost of what ? The death of more than 3000 US soldiers, the death of ten of thousands iraki citizens, and near 1000 billions dollars spent useless.

In the Middle-East, more and more, Putin is leading the dance...
Thanks to the neocons warpigs.

It`s not what do you care,

it is what do you know.

And you know very little beyond what you FEEL.

You're old enough to remember that it was the Anti-semite Jimmy Carter, who de facto abandoned the Shah of Iran who is responsible for it all!

Jimmy Carter+Weak pussy dem nature= Islamic Revolution then Khomeni then Khameni then Amedinejad

It's your parties weak nature that caused it to fail to act in support of the Shah. As a result, it's republicans once again mopping up your slobber.
