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.

A recent poll stated 20% of Democrats will cross party line and vote Republican because they could NOT vote for Hillary!
if you would like softness….
then treat people gently….
and do not let slavery….
still happening….
even if just for one person….
—-
I hate slavery….
more than i hate on the war….
—-
you know I dislike slavery….!
and you fully admit….
the abstract wrong of it….
—-
Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery….
i feel a strong impulse….
to see it tried on him personally….
—-
slavery is founded….
in the selfishness of man’s nature….
opposition to it is in his love of justice….
These principles are an eternal antagonism….
and when brought into collision so fiercely….
as slavery extension brings them….
shocks….
and throes….
and convulsions must ceaselessly follow….
repeal the missouri Compromise….
repeal all compromises….
repeal the declaration of independence….
repeal all past history….
you still can not repeal human nature….
It still will be the abundance….
of man’s heart….
that slavery extension is wrong….
and out of the abundance of his heart….
his mouth will continue to speak….
—-
to correct the evils great and small….
which spring from want of sympathy….
and from positive enmity among strangers….
as nations or as individuals….
is one of the highest functions of civilization….
—-
on the question of liberty….
as a principle,we are not what we have been….
when we were the political slaves….
of king George….
and wanted to be free….
we called the maxim….
that “all men are created equal”….
a self evident truth….
but now when we have grown fat….
and have lost all dread….
of being slaves ourselves….
we have become so greedy….
to be masters….
that we call the same maxim….
“a self evident lie….”
—-
i leave you….
hoping that the lamp of liberty….
will burn in your bosoms…..
until there shall no longer be a doubt….
that all men are created free and equal….
—-
as i would not be a slave….
so i would not be amaster….
This expresses my idea of democracy….
whatever differs from this….
to the extent….
of the difference….
is no democracy….
—-
That should dim democrap meaning not too bright.
This is BS!! Obama needs to be Impeached NOW!!!!
Sorry, not legal under the constitution. Americans are willing to fight against an opressive government once again if provoked.
