“As we face a wide array of threats abroad, it is perhaps more important than ever that we have a sober national conversation about Congress’ constitutional role in authorizing the use of military force,” Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., the committee chairman, said in a statement.

Corker was lockstep with McConnell on blocking every single Obama request to the GOP lead Senate majority, and 400 Filibusters when they were in the Minority. Now that the GOP has a lunatic president who is dishonest and incompetent, Corker wants a sober national conversation about war powers. Splendid, Bob, what a fucking patriot.
