Micromanagers of Defense Naggy Pigloseri, Scarry Screed, Ticked Turbin, et al-liberalssama bin Laden's a very happy camper cave dweller today. Even more than he's usually been since the First al-Qongress™ began its first surrender session early last January.
Imposing command-related conditions on our country's
"Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called [by Congress] into the actual Service of the United States" — a title and power vested alone in the President of the United States by
our constitution We the People — is totally outside the scope of even the first and hopefully last al-Qongress's self-assumedly absolute dictatorial powers.
As it was for all prior Congresses, this Qongress's power of the purse extends no further than to providing or denying funds that our President requests and requires to fully prosecute a war the Congress itself has fully authorized. Congress may outright revoke or amend this authorization it gave him to engage, using any or all our Armed Forces solely under his command, the murderous enemy of every American in that war, so long as its revocation or amendment doesn't encroach in any way on his constitutionally vested powers to manage, direct, and control the battlefield application of our Armed Forces, including the time, size, and manner of their movements.
Of course all this is meaningless to so-called representatives of the people who either don't know or don't care what our constitution says, especially given how much such knowledge or concern would, even with a D-MainTeam media that looks out for no one besides themselves, otherwise thwart their personal, completely selfish plans for ultimate political gain and power.
There is, however, another alternative which the Pigloseri/Screed "New al-Qongress in Town" (© 2007 SFN) has power to impose on our president and us if its aim is to now end a war that one of our real Congresses authorized. A cleaner, much more forthright approach, even. It can pass unconditional Articles of Surrender and Complete and Immediate Capitulation.
Then there'd be no question at all that the war for us is totally over.
An additional bonus from it would be that Osama bin Laden most likely would finally die — from the overwhelming strain brought on by a severe case of unbridled happiness. (Unfortunately, Naggy Pigloseri would probably prevent even this small consolation by calling for him to "calm down.")
