Let's make it abundantly clear.

A president can take America to war. And get away with it. Barack Obama has done it. Without congressional approval. Without a full-fledged public debate. Yes, the very man that promised to get the United States out of war has dragged the nation into another potentially long-term and costly conflagration. Against the so-called Islamic State.  I don’t like war. But I dislike even less an undeclared war. Either get us into war the right way, or not at all.  If the American people want war, so be it. With a military draft. With a nationwide alert. But let’s not allow the president to make the decision for us.  We’re either at war or not at war. Let’s make it abundantly clear.  And official. –Jim Broede
