On the recordJune 7, 1995
If you just would yield one more time, but that sort of begs the question. Consulting, we have all kinds of consultations, and all kinds of notifications, the fact is Desert Storm was a carefully planned, date-certain decision to use force. If it was not a war, then there is not any. You are telling me, it sounds like, that in the Bush White House one of the reason they decided to come to Congress, to not consult, not notify but to seek authorization for the use of force, was the existence of the War Powers Act, which makes a case for the existence of that act and an argument against the repeal. I think, perhaps more than any I had thought of, making me change my mind.
