Reply #194: Only partly. [View All]

Kerry did not have the constitutional authority to grant * a power the Constitution says may only be exercised by the Congress. The grant of power was overbroad. He should have voted 'no' on *any* resolution that was not limited to *new* UNSC-authorized action or purely defensive action, in response to an attack or imminent attack.

You can nuance it all you like, but it doesn't change what the Constitution says.
