"Congress has long abdicated its constitutional authority over war and peace through open-ended AUMFs." -meeks
"For decades, Congress has completely abdicated its constitutional duty to deliberate on matters of war and peace. Nowhere is this more evident than in the case of our decades-old Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF). This dereliction of Congress's duty is a longstanding and bipartisan problem." -roy

the concern i have with legislation just similar to the aumf is that there is no authority without responsibility. you can have imagined authority and find it to be imaginary. the responsibilities of congress are required by our constitution. ceeding those requirements accepted by our representation in our country's legislature to any other branch of government would likely require constitutional amendment. i (personally) find it unlikely that such an amendment would succeed even if established.
part of the difficulty i have with irresponsible governance has everything to do with article six. a failure to provide government as a resource in any country could provide consequences worldwide. failure(s) to accept our constitution as a coherent whole leaves rights under that amended document unrespected.
