Unconstitutional War Dogs

August 13, 2014 By Richard C. Young

Here Pat Buchanan takes War Dogs John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Peter King to task for blowing ISIS out of proportion. Calling ISIS an “existential threat,” the War Dogs would go to war today without Congressional authorization against an enemy that hasn’t attacked America. As Pat rightly asks, what kind of constitutionalists are these so-called Republicans?

This semi-hysterical talk of an “existential threat” to the “homeland,” and the dread specter of “an American city in flames” is vintage war party, designed to panic us into launching a new war.

But before allowing these “Cassandras” to stampede us back into the civil-sectarian Middle East wars that resulted from our previous interventions, let us inspect more closely what they are saying.

If ISIS’ gains are truly an “existential threat” to the republic and our cities are about to “go up in flames,” why did these Republican hawks not demand that President Obama call back Congress from its five-week vacation to vote to authorize a new war on ISIS in Syria and Iraq?

After all, King, McCain and Graham belong to a party that is suing the president for usurping Congressional powers.

Yet, they are also demanding that Obama start bombing nations he has no authority to bomb, as ISIS has not attacked us.

King, McCain and Graham want Obama to play imperial president and launch a preemptive war that their own Congress has not authorized.

What kind of constitutionalists, what kind of conservatives are these?
