00:00This statement from the administration, the president had the constitutional authority to direct the use of military force
00:05because he could reasonably determine that such use of force was in the national interest.
00:10That's too vague for you?
00:12Totally vague.
00:13Okay, because that's from Obama, about Libya.
00:16Well, Obama made the argument initially that he could go into Syria without an authorization.
00:22I and many others pushed back on that argument.
00:24Ultimately, he did not go forward with going after Assad, even though Assad was gassing his own people,
00:30because he thought he might lose the vote in Congress.
