Washington Post: Spiro comments on House Libya votes

The House voted to reject President Obama's introduction of U.S. forces into the conflict in Libya. But the House then voted down an even more aggressive rebuke of Obama: a proposal to strip away part of the funding for the Libyan campaign. The House's surprising mixed decision could ease congressional pressure on Obama, at least for now. "It shows Congress's tendency towards indecision on these kinds of questions," said Peter Spiro of Temple's Beasley School of Law. "The White House will look at this as business as usual."
