Here’s the official Authorization for Use of Military Force that was agreed to by the house last week.
Apparently, we still aren’t sure who “those responsible” is, but when we find out, the President is now officially authorized to kick their ass:
“To authorize the use of United States Armed Forces against those responsible for the recent attacks launched against the United States. “
“The President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.”
