The Authorization for Use of Military Force passed by the Senate is a rewrite of the Constitution’s War Powers clause and grants the President broad authority to deploy ground troops almost everywhere in the world, including the United States. That’s the warning being voiced by Democratic Senator Chris Murphy in response to the AUMF bill proposed by Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
The bill would grant the president overwhelming control over where the US forces are deployed, which is scary for two reasons. The first is the obvious threat to American citizens’ rights. If the military can be sent to an American city based on loose justifications, they could be used to impose martial law and even empower a police state that has already grown too powerful.
The second reason is the plain call back to Manifest Destiny. Americans do not want to police the world. If the European Union is too busy handling the migrant crisis and Russia has finally come to terms with the harsh economic reality that their country is on the brink of collapse, it would leave the United States to ensure the sovereignty of all democratic nations. A solution that nobody would want.

Get OBama out now before he give more of our country and our rights away
It seem YOU are happy, you know whom you should blame? GO LOOK IN THE MIRROR STUPID, YOU bunch of ignorant MORONS.
The military will not fire on there own families or Americans defending what they have taken an oath to defend with thief own lives. But Obama is bringing his own Muslim trash that will need taken out at some point and probably not that far away. Get your ammo and hid your guns so when all hell breaks out you can take care of your own and your community. I know almost everyone in our area are very well ready for whatever comes our way.
This is why Obama needs to be removed from office, and Hillary Clinton would be the same corruption of government in power. Vote TRUMP/PENCE 2016. If your a christian you might say he is the “last Trump !!!” A call to JESUS CHRIST to gather up His elect.
