Though the scope and size is different, you'll note that in the past 50 years we have committed troops to all sorts of places which they should not be, and that the war in Iraq is still being funded by a Democrat-controlled congress.
Apparently no group with political power is willing to strip themselves of the ability to throw our troops into a war-like situation on a whim. Instead, they will blame whoever uses that ability without realizing that to be able to do so at all is contrary to our interests as a nation.
