Default Rand Paul wants war

Rand Paul wants to introduce a resolution when congress is back in session, that says we should declare war against IS. Seems what we are doing over there right now is illegal,lol All this from a Senator who wants to cut taxes and reduce military spending. Going to war will sure help with taxes and cut back military spending!!

Got to love this part of his resolution-

(2) LIMITATION ON USE OF GROUND COMBAT FORCES.-Nothing in this section shall be construed as authorizing the use of ground combat forces except-

(A) as necessary for the protection or rescue of members of the United States Armed Forces or United States citizens from imminent danger posed by the organization referring to itself as the Islamic State, also known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS);

(B) for limited operations against high value targets; or

(C) as necessary for advisory and intelligence gathering operations.


Why does he want war if we don't send in the troops? I guess he thinks hitting IS from the air is a good way to go!?! Aren't we doing that now?Who is his adviser on this resolution, Michelle Bachmann!!
