I am not sure why Congress has suddenly woken up to the fact that they have been letting American Presidents acts as dictators in control of the military or the fact that that the United Nations has more control of the military than the United States Congress but they have. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta tried to sugar coat it at the start of this discussion but he makes it quite clear at the end of this video that the United States Congress does not control the United States Military.
This has been going on for some time now but this "in your face" attitude has prompted Congress to pass a resolution reminding The Great and Powerful Oz that if he uses the military to attack someone, he can be impeached. It's very weird to see Congress take a stand on this so it makes me wonder what else is going on. There are several other aspects of this video that are worth delving into deeper but the point of Video Saturdays is to keep it short and sweet so maybe at a later date.
