133. I heard him say this during the campaign...
The President does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation.

You are correct though, it was my fault for taking him at his word. You see, my mind told me he was lying, but my heart told me that he would would be less likely to start another war than would McCain.
