Hear! Hear!

In the wake of the Decider and his Boss saying that Congress and public opinion is irrelevant when it comes to their "splendid" little war, democracy can go fuck itself.

What Digby says:

I have long said that the Republicans are undemocratic, but now they're just coming right out and saying it: democracy is all well and good until the people and their representatives object to what the president is doing at which point the people and their representatives become a superfluous "committee." They have interpreted the words "commander in chief" to mean that the constitution gives the president dictatorial powers during "wartime" (which the president defines.)

These are two dangerous and selfish men who aren't running for office and so have no political constraints. Not even a 30% approval rating or 12% support for this decision has made them think twice. They are completely confident that history will vindicate them.

Not only undemocratic (a real problem in a democracy) but blatantly dishonest.

So the usual.
