I would just like to say that the Founding Fathers saw the abuse by Kings and danger of the president controlling the power to declare war. They gave the power to declare war and the power to control the president to congress with the power of the purse.

Congress is the will of the people and I believe the latest polls are running around 80% and more, to end this war. Or very high to say the least.

The real "enemy" of the people are the liars that led us into this war.

Senators can vote to stand by the president or by the will of the people. The people say end it!

If you do not contact your Congressman or your Senator and let them know where you stand,Then they think you're ok with the way it is.Its up to you!
Original Post
"When the President starts lying he begins to need evidence to back up his lies because in this democracy he is questioned on his statements. It then percolates down through the bureaucracy that you are helping the Boss if you come up with evidence that is supportive of our public position and you are distinctly unhelpful if you commit to paper statements that might leak to the wrong people.

The effect of that is to poison the flow of information to the President himself and to create a situation where a President can be almost, to use a metaphor, psychotically divorced from the realities in which he is acting...." : Daniel Ellsburg to the US Senate on Foreign Relations, May 13, 1970
