题目: Re: Ron Paul agitates Jim Baker over War Powers during hearing 03/05/2009
Artful Dodger: You missed nothing. He had no defense against Paul's argument, so he threw straw-man arguments at him, none of which addressed the core issue.
Ron Paul nailed it. He harkens back to the Constitution, and accuses the Congress of relinquishing its power to the Executive branch, which - as all history indicates - is a formula for disaster.
