Freeper idiot at work said B* couldn't send in troops w/o CONGRESS!
I brought up the USS Bataan sitting off the coast and waiting for orders from B*, and this idiot actually said that B* could not send any of the troops anywhere without Congressional approval!
I finally just refered the idiot to whitehouse.gov for some basic education.
Even under the War Powers Act, he can send the troops anywhere at any time with no notification to Congress whatsoever! He need only notify within 48 hours after the beginning of combat operations.
