He is right. If Bush wants to finally engage the Iraq problem, it is hasty to start with asking for a blanket resolution that dismantles one of the basic protections that lie between the Republic and tyranny.
Bush has started a process. Let that process work. And if in that process Bush decides that war is necessary, then ask the legislative branch for the appropriate declaration. But not until.
