Dennis Kucinich is suing Obama over "his war" with Libya!

Yes, it's true folks: Suddenly, and almost inexplicably, there is a man who is NOT afraid of "Obama". The White House is reportedly in the final stages of preparing a report about the "military action" in Libya, which is required after 90 days of carrying out an operation WITHOUT Congressional approval. The group is seeking "injunctive and declaratory relief to protect the plaintiffs and the country from a stated policy of defendant Barack Obama, president of the United States, whereby a president may unilaterally go to war in Libya and other countries without a declaration of war from Congress, required by Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the United States Constitution". The suit says the lawmakers are also seeking a judge to rule that the president may not commit the US to war under the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), or under the authority of the United Nations, or in violation of the War Powers Resolution requiring congressional authorization for the use of military force: The White House is "REPORTEDLY" in the final staged of preparing a report about the military action in Libya, which is required after 90 days of carrying out an operation without Congressional approval. That approval is expected sometime later today!
