President Obama has done what Richard Nixon was unable to do by veto.  Well, of course, a bipartisan resolution to support our "support" role would be a nice gesture, but it really is not necessary.  After all, Libya is not a war despite our taking sides in a civil war, supplying the rebel freedom fighters who remain a mystery other than not being Qaddafi loyalists,  sending big bombs over Tripoli and harbors, drones rendering surgical strikes (but, alas,  as with all surgery, sometimes there is a glitch),   assassination attempts on Qaddafi and killing of his family,  death and destruction to prevent a blood bath, and a cost, in just two months, of almost $1Billion.  

Moreover, we are really out of this; it is NATO's baby, and NATO's alone, despite the fact that US Admiral James Stavridis is Supreme Allied Commander/US Commander of European Command and the Canadian General, Charles Bouchard, who commands the Libyan campaign, reports to Admiral Stavridis.

It is highly likely that Congress would give approval if asked, as few Republicans have seen a war they do not like, and even fewer Democrats have seen a spine when it comes to a president, especially President Obama.

Note how they try to trip up Lane over fairly trivial matters like distances in feet in Dealey Plaza, note how they quickly move to the next question when Lane destroys their line of questioning with specific rebuttals from the Warren Report itself, and note how towards the end the WC defenders fall back on character assassination of Lane via guilt by association with a far-right character of the time.  

Wirin finishes by disgracing himself with a very un-ACLU like argument in favor of allowing a known or suspected innocent defendant to be railroaded by the legal system in order to prevent a larger (albeit purely speculative) societal harm.

Also fascinating is to hear the post-debate interviews with numerous audience members there at Beverly Hills HS.  Most interviewed were outraged about the 3-on-1 unfair format, another relates how he heard some in the audience giddy over how fortunate they were that such debates were allowed -- as if questioning authority were somehow not the norm -- as the interviewee then notes how sad it was to hear people in a democracy have that reaction.

Debate was scheduled originally to be broadcast over Pacifica's KPFK-LA radio station, but when it was over the WC proponents refused to sign a legal release form to permit it.  Listening to the 2-hr debate, I can see why they would have refused.
