Robert Menendez actually said...

"What it did not do, and what I think Democrats are not willing to do, is to give this or any other President an open-ended authorization for war, a blank check."

"I believe that an AUMF against ISIL should better reflect the President's promise and the strategy he has laid out to the American people."

"I do not think there is a Democrat or Republican who does not believe that we have to degrade or defeat ISIL."

"I look forward to getting some answers from our witnesses that will allow us to move forward in writing and passing an authorization."
