Isn't the POTUS as the Commander in chief allowed to take miliatry action without congressional approval within certain limits?

Yes, the President is given 6 months of a blank check before he has to consult congress. And when he does, he does not have to address all of it. He can simply address the security council due to secrecy requirements and we'd never know about it, and it'd be perfectly legal.
So, dont expect to see GW in handcuffs anytime soon.
