I thought the Congressional authorization was for the US to participate in a United Nations coalition to expel Iraq from Kuwait.

It will take a very loyal White House lawyer to read into that a Congressional approval for a unilateral pre-emptive strike on Iraq more than a decade later.

But I guess that's what they're paid the big bucks for.
