If this is so clear cut, why waste your time with me (my mind is made up), you should be calling on Congress to impeach Bush!

ace....in the highly improbable scenario in which the threat to the nation was so great and so imminent that action needed to be taken at that very instant or in a matter of hours, I would have, at the very least, called the leaders of both parties in Congress into the Oval Office and said "this is what I am preparing to do..with or without your support." I would not have kept my actions hidden from a co-equal branch of government for three years.
Is that less bullshit?
But I wont waste anymore time
... other than to suggest you read up on Kennedy and the Cuban missile crisis. He not only consulted with Congress, but with the Organization of American States as well, and gave a national TV address to the nation...all while in the midst of the "crisis"
