OBAMA IS BEING DERELICT IN HIS DUTIES AS COMMANDER IN CHIEF

By moving a trial from a military tribunal to federal court, Obama is being derelict in his duties as Commander in Chief and has committed treason.

This move directly aids and abets our enemy - an enemy we are explicitly at war with - detailed in the 2001 AUMF.

At the very least Obama should be impeached.

HERE'S THE AUMF:
To authorize the use of United States Armed Forces against those responsible for the recent attacks launched against the United States.

Whereas, on September 11, 2001, acts of treacherous violence were committed against the United States and its citizens; and

Whereas, such acts render it both necessary and appropriate that the United States exercise its rights to self-defense and to protect United States citizens both at home and abroad; and

Whereas, in light of the threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States posed by these grave acts of violence; and

Whereas, such acts continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States; and

Whereas, the President has authority under the Constitution to take action to deter and prevent acts of international terrorism against the United States: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This joint resolution may be cited as the `Authorization for Use of Military Force’.

SEC. 2. AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES.

(a) IN GENERAL- That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.

(b) War Powers Resolution Requirements-

(1) SPECIFIC STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION- Consistent with section 8(a)(1) of the War Powers Resolution, the Congress declares that this section is intended to constitute specific statutory authorization within the meaning of section 5(b) of the War Powers Resolution.

(2) APPLICABILITY OF OTHER REQUIREMENTS- Nothing in this resolution supercedes any requirement of the War Powers Resolution.

Approved September 18, 2001.
REPEAT:
EC. 2. AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF UNITED STATES ARMED

FORCES.
(a) IN GENERAL- That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001,
OBAMA CAN ORDER KSM AND HIS COHORTS EXECUTED.

INSTEAD, HE’S GIVING THEM A SHOW TRIAL - DESPITE THE FACT THAT A LEGAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL AND CONSTITUTIONALLY TESTED MILITARY TRIBUNAL WAS ALREADY UNDERWAY.

REPEAT - THE AUMF SAYS:
or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001,
“HE DETERMINES” MEANS THE PRESIDENT, NOT A JURY. NOT EVEN CONGRESS.

BY NOT USING FORCE AGAINST THE PERPETRATORS OF 9/11, OBAMA IS VIOLATING THE WORDS AND SPIRIT OF THE 2001 AUMF.

OBAMA IS BEING DERELICT IN HIS DUTIES AS COMMANDER IN CHIEF.

BY "ALLOWING" HOLDER TO MAKE THIS MOMENTOUS DECISION OBAMA IS EITHER AWOL, OR HE HAS "VOTED PRESENT".

NEITHER IS ACCEPTABLE.
