Wash Post on Libya

Here is The Washington Post talking about the war in Libya—and it is a war, at least to Mr Moammar Gaddafi, the current Libyan leader.  His office and his life are at stake.  Of course it is war.

The Wash Post faults President Obama for not doing enough.  On the other hand, there is that whole "War Powers Resolution" issue, recently discussed here.  It is about our Constitution and how we manage our Government.

Where stands the US Congress?

If the Congress lets the President slide on this because it is minor, he (or eventually she) will try to slide on larger issues.  It is time to draw a line and ask the President to step back over it onto his side of the Constitution.

Hat tip to the Instapundit.
