No one wants to challenge it in the Courts. Why not? There was one vote in the House (by Rep. Barbara Lee) against military action. I wonder why she hasn't brought legal action. I would think she would have no problem coming up with contributions to pay for it. War Powers Act. Do you know where that is in the US Code? www4.law.cornell.edu Since then, we've had the USSC decision on the line-item veto. Where the Court ruled that the Legislative body cannot abrogate their Constitutional authority or responsibilities through legislative action. Had members of Congress not challenged the line-item veto to the USSC, we would have it today. Yup. There's been at least one President that made that point. At the beginning of the civil war, Lincoln suspended habeas corpus. The USSC, with Tawney, a southerner, its Chief Justice, declared his action unconstitutional. Lincoln ignored the court's decision and considered having Tawney arrested.
