        @repjustinamash I don't trust the legislature to make such decisions anymore than I do the President.

        @RobMcNealy same principle as preferring 12 jurors over 1 judge for trial. More opportunity to persuade. @repjustinamash

        @repjustinamash convenient of you to selectively follow the Constitution when it serves your purpose. You are a hypocrite.

        @repjustinamash I assume you've read the full letter (to Jefferson) in which Madison wrote this, but it's at http://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/a1_8_11s8.html …

        @repjustinamash But what will Congress do when this President ignores the Constitution and does another Libya (which led to #Benghazi )?

        @repjustinamash Why? Because one man can be more easily swayed into war (ego, power,revenge) than can 268 representatives (535/2).

        @repjustinamash yes, in that the legislature can defund it, not make decisions in place of the commander in chief.
